About the Book

DEUX LETTRES I Au moment où Parabère montait à cheval pour le service en campagne, le vaguemestre s'approcha de lui en lui disant: - Mon capitaine, voici les journaux, plus deux lettres pour vous. De ces deux lettres, l'une était de Suzanne; depuis que Parabère était au camp, elle n'avait jamais manqué un seul jour de lui envoyer de Paris quelques mots de tendresse. Il reconnut immédiatement son papier gris-perle, ses pattes de mouche à peu près illisibles; mais de qui pouvait bien être l'autre lettre? Sous l'enveloppe, un gigantesque D. R. avec couronne fermée, une écriture anglaise régulière, élégante, et un parfum capiteux en diable. De plus la lettre avait été envoyée chez lui, avenue des Champs-Élysées, et non au camp, ce qui dénotait quelqu'un peu au courant de ses habitudes intimes. Il eût voulu pouvoir au moins lire la signature, mais précisément le régiment était formé sur le front de bandière et l'on sonnait pour rendre l'appel. Parabère serra les lettres dans sa poche et piqua des deux vers son escadron; il apprit avec une satisfaction adoucie par l'habitude qu'il ne manquait personne, et partit à son tour annoncer cette excellente nouvelle au commandant de semaine. Malheureusement, le commandant était à cheval à côté du colonel qui - signe menaçant - tenait dépliée une carte.
About the Author: Richard de L'Isle de Falcon de Saint-Geniès, dit Richard O'Monroy, né en 1849 à Paris où il est mort en 1916, est un romancier et nouvelliste français. Avec Gyp et Ludovic Halévy, il est l'un des conteurs de la vie parisienne dans le dernier quart du XIXe siècle. Sorti de l'école de Saint-Cyr en 1870, il est capitaine de cavalerie lorsqu'il est acculé à la démission en 1891, ce qui lui permet de se consacrer pleinement à l'écriture. Il contribue à La Vie parisienne et au Gil Blas des saynètes de la vie d'officier, des croquis parisiens, des romans et des nouvelles réunis par la suite en une cinquantaine de volumes. Il est également l'auteur de quelques vaudevilles et comédies en un acte. Son style d'allure vive et sa gaieté sentimentale ont su plaire pendant un temps à un certain public
