The Man of Lonely Hours in Paris Death Feast
A long excerpted tale weaves Parisian life around a mysterious man of lonely hours an executioner and a widow Coralie and Auguste Gautier. The narrator Herbert recalls a guillotine spectacle at La Roquette the mass for Pomfet and the revelation that the aristocratic looking stranger is the actual executioner Heindereich. Coralie later marries Auguste and the tale ends with an exhortation to promptly pay workers and share goodwill.
