He determined to cover her with a rain of gold and jewels, and make her the first femme entretenue in France, in all Europe.
BEGINNINGS OF THE COUNTESS DU BABRY 95 Thinking that a demoiselle could not decently fulfil the functions of royal mistress, he decided that he would at once make the new favorite a married woman and a woman of title. Nothing easier than to find her a nominal husband who, having received a goodly sum, would quietly retire behind the scenes and not appear again on the stag...e. Count Jean Du Barry could not play this lucrative part himself, seeing that he was already married. But he had a bachelor brother who seemed made expressly for the circumstance. This complaisant brother was called Count William Du Barry. He was a poor officer of marines, who lived at Toulouse, with his mother.
To summon him to Paris, to marry him to the mistress of Louis XV., to give him a large sum and send him back at once to Toulouse, was but the affair of a few days. Queen Marie Leczinska had died June 24, 1768.
