Subject: QOTD For Monday, June 20th 2022

The following quotation is taken from Dragonfly In Amber by Diana Gabaldon. Copyright 1992 All Rights Reserved. Chapter 11, Useful Occupations:

"Well, yes, he has been heard to speak of you," Madame de Ramage said, kindly helping me out of my confusion. "I gather that there was some small difficulty in Le Havre?"

"Something of the kind," I said. "All I did was recognize a case of smallpox, but it resulted in the destruction of his ship, and...he wasn't pleased about it," I concluded weakly.

"Ah, so that was it." Madame de Ramage looked pleased. I imagined having the inside story, so to speak, would give her an advantage in the trade of gossip and information that was the commerce of Parisian social life.

"He has been going about telling people that he believes you to be a witch," she said, smiling and waiving at a friend across the room. "A fine story! Oh, no one believes it," she assured me. "Everyone knows that if anyone is mixed up in such matters, it is Monsieur le Comte himself."

[> I keep thinking we’re going to find a bloodline connection between Claire and le Comte. I forgot about this encounter, but he keeps popping up. How about Claire, “resulted in the destruction of his ship” 😂. Wherever she goes, havoc often follows - but always with the BEST intentions. Road to hell and all that.
