- The Marquis was the pest of the hotel. His impulsive, romantic disposition, coupled with an entirely un-American manner of expression, made every man in the hotel extremely anxious to show the Marquis the interesting possibilities of a coach-whip. For the Marquis lavished his attentions upon every woman in the hotel. It made not the slightest difference to him if she were single, engaged, or married. For each he was a devoted slave, filled with oily smirks and sleek insinuations. One day the Marquis disappeared for a time, and returned, "honi soit qui mal y pense," with a garter. This article of apparel, he proudly informed the men, he intended to give to one of the ladies in their party as a slight token of his esteem. Henry promptly wagered the Marquis that none of the ladies would accept his present. It was agreed that the attempted act of presentation should take place on the evening of a large masquerade ball at the hotel. On the evening of the dance the Marquis pursued Alice to a quiet corner, and begged her to accept the garter. Alice modestly retired behind a curtain and told the Marquis that if she decided to accept his present she would let him know. The Marquis waited in an ecstasy of suspense. While he waited, the guests in the plot crept up behind him. In a few moments a remarkably well-shaped limb appeared through the curtains. Upon it the Marquis fastened the garter. Immediately afterward the groom upon whose leg the present had been fastened stepped out. Immediately after that Henry challenged the Marquis to a duel to the death. The Marquis did not want to fight at all, and it required considerable effort on the part of his somewhat unsympathetic second to get him to the dueling ground. When the sword was placed in his hand he closed his eyes and thrust wildly in the general direction of his opponent. A groan of horror greeted his effort. When the Marquis opened his eyes he discovered Henry stretched on the ground before him. The horrified seconds warned the Marquis that his only chance of escaping the electric chair was to fly from the country at once, so while the Marquis fled wildly on an unsaddled horse, Henry arose and went back to the hotel with his friends.
