Explore "The Deputy of Arcis" by Honoré De Balzac on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Paris, May, 1839.
Monsieur Dorlange came last evening to take leave of us. He starts to-day for Arcis-sur-Aube, where the ceremony of inaugurating _his_ statue takes place. That is also the place selected by the Opposition journals for his candidacy. Monsieur de l'Estorade declares that the locality could not have been worse chosen, and that it leaves his election without a chance.
