Charles Evremonde, called Darnay. Released yesterday. Reaccused and retaken yesterday. Indictment delivered to him last night. Suspected and Denounced enemy of the Republic, Aristocrat, one of a family of tyrants, one of a race proscribed, for that they had used their abolished privileges to the infamous oppression of the people. Charles Evremonde, called Darnay, in right of such proscription, absolutely Dead in Law. ¡¡¡¡To this effect, in as few or fewer words, the Public Prosecutor. ¡¡¡¡The President asked, was the Accused openly denounced or secretly? ¡¡¡¡"Openly, President." ¡¡¡¡"By whom?" ¡¡¡¡"Three voices. Ernest Defarge, wine-vendor of St. Antoine." ¡¡¡¡"Good. "Therese Defarge, his wife." ¡¡¡¡"Good." ¡¡¡¡"Alexandre Manette, physician." ¡¡¡¡A great uproar took place in the court, and in the midst of it, Doctor Manette was seen, pale and trembling, standing where he had been seated. ¡¡¡¡"President, I indignantly protest to you that this is a forgery and a fraud. You know the accused to be the husband of my daughter. My daughter, and those dear to her, are far dearer to me than my life. Who and where is the false conspirator who says that I denounce the husband of my child!" ¡¡¡¡"Citizen Manette, be tranquil. To fail in submission to the authority of the Tribunal would be to put yourself out of Law. As to what is dearer to you than life, nothing can be so dear to a good citizen as the Republic."
