Chapter 28: The Accounting
The stewards paid the purse on Saturday morning, in gold, at the back table of the hotel.
The head steward counted out eight thousand dollars and pushed it across without a word about gentlemen's rooms.
I carried it out to the square in Papa's old saddlebag.
It was market day.
The square was full of cane carts and chicken crates and half the parish pretending they'd come for onions.
I set up at the courthouse steps, where the note had burned, with Papa's ledger open on the stone.
Aurore stood on one side of me.
Laurent stood on the other, with his arm in a clean sling.
"Share number one," I called out.
The dressmaker came up the steps.
I counted five hundred dollars into her hands, gold and paper, so the whole square could see.
She looked at it, and then at me.
"Twenty-nine years," she said, and put it in her sewing bag and kissed my cheek.
"Share number two."
The jeweler's wife came up with her husband right behind her.
