Thanks for commenting. He might feel flattered at being remembered. He might hope for clearing of his being accused of taking the wallet. Or he might be sad, again, realising it was impossible to prove his innocence, his craftiness being so well known.
Once upon a time I could read French well enough to enjoy trying to. The first thing I remember enjoying was Guy de Maupassant’s “La Ficelle”. This week I found it on the web. I could still read it, not perfectly, but well enough to enjoy it. I had forgotten all of the story except its title. The story was sadder than I had expected.
I confess I was not aware of it. Quel dommage! I looked it up and read the English version. Now that I’ve read that version, perhaps I should try the French.
What would Maiitre Hauchecorne of Breaute make of this?
