Excerpt from The Chevalier De St. Denis Mr. Charles Gayarré, in his "History of Louisiana, " says of the hero of this romance, - "St. Denis is one of the most interesting characters in the early history of Louisiana. "'He hither came, a private gentleman, But young and brave, and of a family Ancient and noble.' "He was a knight-errant in his feelings and in his doings throughout life, and everything connected with him, or that came within the purview of his existence, was imbued with the spirit of romance. The noble bearing of his tall, well-proportioned, and remarkably handsome person was in keeping with the lofty spirit of his soul. He was one in whom nature had given the world assurance of a man, and that assurance was so strongly marked in the countenance of St. Denis that, wherever he appeared, he instantaneously commanded love, respect, and admiration." - History of Louisiana.
