THREE:Do you wish me to be lost?
THREE:You know me, then?They spent three days in the Artaut family, thankful for the rest, the quietness and the kindness they received. M. Artaut engaged a man he knew to take them on their journey, telling him that they were relations of his, and recommending them to his care.

Their driver took the greatest care of them, and they arrived in safety at the bridge of Beauvoisin, the frontier of France.

Disloyal demonstrations were made, the King sent for more troops and dismissed Necker, who, like La Fayette, was unable to quell the storm he had raised; everything was becoming more and more alarming.
