three o'clock
This recital was welcomed by a general exclamation of joy . The duchess gave D'Harmental her hand to kiss ; the men pressed his . It was agreed that the next day at two o'clock the duchess , Pompadour , Laval , Valef , Malezieux , and Brigaud , should meet at No. 15 , Faubourg Saint Antoine , a house occupied by D'Avranches ' mother , and that they should there await the event . The result was to be announced to them by D'Avranches himself , who , at three o'clock , should be at the Barrière du Trône with two horses , one for himself , the other for the chevalier . He was to follow D'Harmental at a distance , and return to announce what had passed . Five other horses , saddled and bridled , were to be ready in the stables of the house in the Faubourg Saint Antoine , so that the conspirators might fly at once in case of the chevalier 's failure . These plans settled , the duchess forced the chevalier to seat himself beside her .
