by the blood along the road; the leaders shot those who faltered with
fatigue. - On reaching Blois, Frimaire 18, H?zine says, before the
town-hall, "To-morrow morning they shall be straightened out and we'll
show the Bl?sois how the thing is managed." The following day, H?zine

the court of the inn, say to him: "You'll shoot some of them for us.
You must give the people an example by shooting some of those rascally
priests.
