At Point Levis.
human
When did they arrive?
gpt
This morning, early.
human
Have you seen them?
gpt
They are quite visible on the heights, moving to and fro, and making all kinds of signs toward the city. The whole of Quebec turned out to look at them, the scholars of the Seminary along with the rest. After I had seen the fellows, the Superior of the Seminary called me aside, and directed me to take a sleigh, and come at once to notify you.
human
Notify me? said Zulma, arching her brows.
gpt
M. Le Superieur is very amiable.
human
Well, not you exactly, said Eugene, laughing,
gpt
Oh! exclaimed she.
human
That is different. I never saw your Superior in my life, and I do not know that he is aware of my humble existence.
gpt
There you are mistaken. Our Superior knows all about you, your tricks, your oddities, your French notions; and he often speaks to me of you. He is especially aware that you are a rebel, and is much grieved thereat.
human
Rebel! There is that hateful word again.
gpt
I thought you liked it, when applied to yourself. You told me as much the last time.
