An Excellent Opportunity Ensnaring a Paris Merchant

In Rue St Denis a tall old house houses M Ramin a jovial mercer who presumes to exploit his dying rival M Bonelle by hunting for a will and a sale. Ramin presses for a life annuity while Bonelle feigns strength and resists but the trap tightens as Marguerite hints at Bea tings and a doctor stirs unease.

M. Ramin schemes to force a dying man into a costly annuity by exploiting his health fears. After a tense confrontation with the housekeeper and a priest, the willful Bonelle appears to be dying, a ploy that yields a signed agreement.
