Chapter 28
Two Frenchmen enter the house where Pierre is staying in Moscow. The officer interrogates Gerasim while Pierre hides, not wanting to reveal his identity. But when Makar Alexeevich raises the pistol at the officer, Pierre saves the Frenchman’s life. Captain Ramballe calls Pierre a Frenchman and agrees to pardon Makar Alexeevich. He orders up some mutton and plenty of wine.
