"Dear Joly- we're in a book by, of all men, Victor Hugo. Not too much, mind you; it's very long and there's a whole chapter about Louis-Philippe, I do not recommend the experience. I'll tell you more if you like, but don't worry too much about it. If someone tries to throw it in your face, bat your lashes and tell them you know all about it; I certainly mean to."
He considers the paper for a moment, then grabs a pen and writes dramatically while saying "p.s.Bossuet thinks too much, do something to stop it."
He tosses the paper over. It has the whole text on it. "I didn't expect to be called on for any more detail, you know. I've never known Joly to seek out historical literature with any great gusto."
