Translations for inheritance in French

Here are paragraphs from public domain books translated:
He was the friend of the king, who honored highly, as everyone knows, the memory of his father, Henry IV. The father of M. de Treville had served him so faithfully in his wars against the league that in default of money--a thing to which the Bearnais was accustomed all his life, and who constantly paid his debts with that of which he never stood in need of borrowing, that is to say, with ready wit--in default of money, we repeat, he authorized him, after the reduction of Paris, to assume for his arms a golden lion passant upon gules, with the motto FIDELIS ET FORTIS. This was a great matter in the way of honor, but very little in the way of wealth; so that when the illustrious companion of the great Henry died, the only inheritance he was able to leave his son was his sword and his motto. Thanks to this double gift and the spotless name that accompanied it, M. de Treville was admitted into the household of the young prince where he made such good use of his sword, and was so faithful to his motto, that Louis XIII, one of the good blades of his kingdom, was accustomed to say that if he had a friend who was about to fight, he would advise him to choose as a second, himself first, and Treville next--or even, perhaps, before himself. Il était l’ami du roi, lequel honorait fort, comme chacun sait, la mémoire de son père Henri IV. Le père de M. de Tréville l’avait si fidèlement servi dans ses guerres contre la Ligue, qu’à défaut d’argent comptant, – matière qui toute la vie manqua au Béarnais, lequel paya constamment ses dettes avec la seule chose qu’il n’eût jamais besoin d’emprunter, c’est-à-dire avec de l’esprit, – qu’à défaut d’argent comptant, disons-nous, il l’avait autorisé, après la reddition de Paris, à prendre pour armes un lion d’or passant sur gueules, avec cette devise : fidelis et fortis . C’était beaucoup pour l’honneur, mais c’était médiocre pour le bien-être. Aussi, quand l’illustre compagnon du grand Henri mourut, il laissait pour seul héritage à monsieur son fils son épée et sa devise. Grâce à ce double don et au nom sans tache qui l’accompagnait, M. de Tréville fut admis dans la maison du jeune prince, où il se servit si bien de son épée et fut si fidèle à sa devise, que Louis XIII, une des bonnes lames de son royaume, avait l’habitude de dire que, s’il avait un ami qui se battît, il lui donnerait le conseil de prendre pour second, lui d’abord, et Tréville après, et peut-être même Tréville avant lui.

“Well, I seem to have come into an inheritance with a vengeance,” said he, when the long narrative was finished. “Of course, I’ve heard of the hound ever since I was in the nursery. It’s the pet story of the family, though I never thought of taking it seriously before. But as to my uncle’s death—well, it all seems boiling up in my head, and I can’t get it clear yet. You don’t seem quite to have made up your mind whether it’s a case for a policeman or a clergyman.” Lorsque le docteur Mortimer cessa de parler, il s’écria : « J’ai donc recueilli un héritage maudit !… Certes, dès ma plus tendre enfance, j’ai entendu parler de ce chien. C’est l’histoire favorite de la famille, mais je ne pensai jamais à la prendre au sérieux. Quant à la mort de mon oncle… Il me semble que ma tête bout… je ne puis lier deux idées… Je me demande si ce que vous venez de m’apprendre exige une enquête judiciaire ou un exorcisme.
