to effect. She took delight in the squabbles
of the Fouan family, exciting their cupidity by promising them a share
of her property at her death. Meantime she made a will which was so
complicated that she hoped it would lead to endless lawsuits amongst her
heirs. La Terre.

GRANDGUILLOT, a notary at Plassans. He embezzled large sums belonging
to his clients, among whom was Dr. Pascal Rougon, and thereafter fled to
Switzerland. Le Docteur Pascal.

GRANDJEAN (M.), son of a sugar-refiner of Marseilles. He fell in love
with Helene Mouret, a young girl of great beauty, but without fortune;
his friends bitterly opposed the match, and a secret marriage followed,
the young couple finding it difficult to make ends meet, till the
death of an uncle brought them ten thousand francs a year. By this time
Grandjean had taken an intense dislike for Marseilles, and decided to
remove to Paris. The day after his arrival there he was seized with
illness, and eight days later he died, leaving his wife with one
daughter, a young girl of ten. Une Page d'Amour.

GRANDJEAN (MADAME HELENE), wife of the preceding. See Helene Mouret.

GRANDJEAN (JEANNE), born 1842, was the daughter of M. Grandjean and
Helene Mouret, his wife. She inherited much of the neurosis of her
mother's family along with a consumptive tendency derived from her
father, and from an early age had been subject to fits and other nervous
attacks. One of these illnesses, more sudden and severe than usual,
caused her mother to summon Doctor Deberle, and thus led to an intimacy
which had disastrous results. Jeanne's jealous affection for her mother
amounted almost to a mania, and when she came to suspect that Dr.
Deberle had become in a sense her rival, she worked herself into such
a nervous state that she exposed herself to a chill, and having become
seriously ill, died in a few days, at the age of thirteen. Une Page
d'Amour.

member of the County Council since 1855, and on the day he retired he
had been made Commander of the Legion of Honour." He owned a mansion
