Morcerf the proposed visit of the major, which had served Monte Cristo
as a pretext for declining Alberts invitation. Seven oclock had just struck,
and M. Bertuccio, according to the command which had been given him,
had two hours before left for Auteuil, when a cab stopped at the door, and
after depositing its occupant at the gate, immediately hurried away, as if
