Le Interview avec le Compte d'Avignon, Robespierre O'Rielly


Governor Noted and Notable

   While most of the time I do not find the appointment of the governors of the provinces noteworthy, being really just government men dealing in government matters that I know little about and care even less, this time a tale did take some note to my ears.  A newcomer to Paris, the Chevalier Luc le Canard-Jaune impressed his Majesty with a rumoured kindness.  The King had been disposed to appoint a more experienced man to the post, but the compassion and decisiveness with which Chevalier le Canard-Jaune dealt with the matter, when it reached King Henri's ears, he changed his mind and appointed the young man.  No doubt were his father yet living, the elder le Canard-Jaune would be proud of his son.  Although I have sought out the sources of these rumours, I can find little nor will any speak of the deed itself.  It seems that the man picked fr the task is indeed good at picking men himself as no information seems available.  I shall yet to endeavor.  Often I find that liqour shall ply a man's lips when money will not.  

In celebration, the new Governor Loire took his mistress, the kind Ineta, and went shopping for a new mansion which I am told he obtained for a handsome price.  Not that he remained there.  He was to be found at Court later in the month where the couple was seen hobnobbing with the Captain of the Cardinal's Escort, Tomās de Tainquengin and the influential mistress Lucy.  And he was a fixture on the scene as well.  I think that the Chevalier Governor le Canard-Jaune will be a force in governing France, especially Loire, in a fine, fair, and kind manner.  I hope the others do the same.
