The Reverent Father Joy Killer

• Theodule of Laubespin had among her sisters two whose children, Georgine de Fumel and Paul d' Evry were going to marry.
• As a double niece, Georgine knew her uncle well; her cousins and herself had nicknamed him "Reverent Father Joy-Killer".
• Was it true? It is up to you to judge.
  • Gilda Bonaert, a grand-daughter of Théodule, told: "When a child passed running in front of Théodule's room, he appeared such as the statue the commander and looked at you from his height."
  • He was then saying in a most serious tone: "Turn back to the end of the corridor and walk now gently!" And it was necessary to walk along the 30 meters length corridor under his glance.
