All four were to meet the next day at eleven o’clock. If they had discovered milady’s retreat, three were to remain on guard; the fourth was to return to Béthune, to inform Athos and serve as a guide to the four friends.
When these arrangements were made the lackeys retired.
Athos then arose from his chair, girded on his sword, enveloped himself in his cloak, and left the hotel. It was nearly ten o’clock. At ten o’clock in the evening, we know, the streets in provincial towns are very little frequented.
Athos reached the suburb, situated at the end of the city, opposite where he and his friends had entered it. Here he appeared uneasy and embarrassed, and stopped.
Fortunately, a beggar passed and came up to Athos to ask charity. Athos offered him a crown to accompany him where he was going.
