Excerpt from French Pictures in English Chalk: Second Series
Certainly the thought of making a deputy (read, French mp.) of Martin Boulet would never have occurred to anyone save Martin Boulet him self; and that the idea should ever have come to him, Martin Boulet, except as the visionary con sequence of a too festive supper, was a thing past the reach of comprehension. It even caused no little consternation amongst us when, in that odd, dry way he had, our friend announced his intention of con testing the seat just vacated by M. De foie-gras, who had gone to sleep with his forefathers.
