Excerpt from The Forty-Five Guardsmen: Illustrated With a Frontispiece in Photogravure
There was a great crowd collected there, for numbers of peasants and other people had been stopped at the gates on their way into Paris. They were arriving by three different roads, - from Montreuil, from Vincennes, and from St. Maur; and the crowd was growing more dense every moment. There were monks from the convent in the neighborhood, women seated on pack-saddles, and peasants in their carts; and all, by their questions more or less pressing, made a continual murmur, while some voices were raised above the others in shriller tones of anger or complaint.
