“Take it all back, Bob; you’re right. I saw it too.” It was found that Blue Beard had left no heirs, and so his widow came into possession of all his property.

He had passed the woods in disguise, with much difficulty eluding the observation of the marquis's people, who were yet dispersed round the abbey.
