After getting yourself enrolled on the
register of your parish—no one knows how you managed it; but let that
pass—anyhow, when you were enrolled, you promptly chose a most
gentlemanly occupation, that of clerk and errand-boy to minor officials. After

relieved of that employment; and I must say that your subsequent conduct did no
discredit to your earlier career.
