So she is told about the gathering for their next meeting.After one meeting, Heather finds the lantern out on the rug and not in its usual place in the cupboard—so why is it there?

Excerpt from A Gentleman of France, Vol. 1 of 3: Being the Memoirs of Gaston De Bonne, Sieur De MarsacThe death of the prince had left the King of Navarre without a rlval in the affections of the Huguenots; the Vicomte de Turenne, whose turbulent ambition already began to make itself felt, and M. De Chatillon, rank ing next to him.
