HORTEUR (ABBE), parish priest of Bonneville, was a thick-set man of
peasant-like build whose red hair was still unsilvered by his fifty
years. Much of his time was spent in cultivating a small plot of ground
in the churchyard, which he had enclosed as a vegetable garden. With
regard to religion, he had come to be contented with the observance of
outward ceremonies, and his tolerance had degenerated into a state of
indifference as to the spiritual condition of his flock. He was on good
terms with Chanteau, with whom it was his custom to play draughts every
Saturday. La Joie de Vivre.
