| | 1 | Author: | Austin, Mary | Requires cookie* | | | Title: | The Search for Jean Baptiste  | | | | Published: | 1996 | | | | Subjects: | University of Virginia Library, Text collection | UVA-LIB-Text | | | | Description: | ONE bred to the hills and the care of dumb, helpless things must in the end, whatever
else befalls, come back to them. That is the comfort they give him for their care and
the revenge they have of their helplessness. If this were not so Gabriel Lausanne
would never have found Jean Baptiste. Babette, who was the mother of Jean Baptiste
and the wife of Gabriel, understood this also, and so came to her last sickness in
more comfort of mind than would have been otherwise possible; for it was understood
between them that when he had buried her, Gabriel was to go to America to find Jean
Baptiste. | | | Similar Items: | Find |
