Who else could it be ? And returns invalided . That is evidence . My nephew Palmet has it from Vivian Ducie , and he is acquainted with her tolerably intimately , and the story is , she was overtaken in her flight in the night , and the duel followed at eight o'clock in the morning ; but her brother insisted on fighting for Captain Beauchamp , and I can not tell you how -- but his place in it I ca n't explain -- there was a beau jeune homme , and it 's quite possible that he should have been the person to stand up against the marquis . At any rate , he insulted Captain Beauchamp , or thought your hero had insulted him , and the duel was with one or the other . It matters exceedingly little with whom , if a duel was fought , and you see we have quite established that . ' ` I hope it is not true , ' said Cecilia .
