Book Description
Excerpt from The Queen's Necklace, Vol. 1 of 2 His connection with the affair of the necklace is rather problematical, except in so far as he was the confidant and mystical adviser of the Cardinal, whose hopes, founded upon his supposed correspondence with the queen, he undoubtedly nursed with his predictions of great power and influence to come by means of it. The early history of Jeanne de saint-remy, by courtesy Countess, styled also of Valois, is told by Dumas with substantial accuracy, and need not be repeated here. She married Monsieur de La Motte, a private in the Gendarmes, at bar-sur-aube, and dubbed him Count, by virtue of her own Countess-ship.
