eleven o'clock
Madame George contemplated her son and Rigolette with quiet happiness . Louise Morel , after a rigid examination and autopsy of her child , had been set at liberty ; the beautiful features of the daughter of the lapidary expressed a kind of sad and melancholy resignation . Thanks to the generosity of Rudolph , and the care and attention which he had caused to be shown her , the mother of Louise Morel , who accompanied her , had recovered her health . The porter at the gate had asked Madame George whom she desired to see ; she replied that one of the physicians of the asylum for the insane had made an appointment with her and her friends at eleven o'clock . Madame George had the option either to wait for the doctor in an office which was pointed out to her , or in the court of which we have spoken . She chose the latter ; leaning on the arm of her son , and continuing to converse with the wife of the lapidary , she walked in the garden , Louise and Rigolette following at a short distance . `` How happy I am to see you , dear Louise !
