CHAPTER VII. THE CONQUEST OF NANTES
The Binet Troupe opened in Nantes-as you may discover in surviving copies of the "Courrier Nantais"-on the Feast of the Purification with "Les Fourberies de Scaramouche." But they did not come to Nantes as hitherto they had gone to little country villages and townships, unheralded and depending entirely upon the parade of their entrance to attract attention to themselves. Andre-Louis had borrowed from the business methods of the Comedie Francaise. Carrying matters with a high hand entirely in his own fashion, he had ordered at Redon the printing of playbills, and four days before the company's descent upon Nantes, these bills were pasted outside the Theatre Feydau and elsewhere about the town, and had attracted
-being still sufficiently unusual announcements at the time- considerable attention.
