9. IX.

When this good M. Madeline, whom the reader
will perceive must have been a former convict, and a
very bad man—gave himself up to justice as the real
Jean Valjean; about this same time, Fantine was
turned away from the manufactory, and met with a
number of losses from society. Society attacked her,
and this is what she lost:

First her lover.

Then her child.

Then her place.

Then her hair.

Then her teeth.

Then her liberty.

Then her life.

What do you think of society after that? I tell
you the present social system is a humbug.
