The provided text excerpts do not mention a Baron or Baroness nor a parley between characters JD and DE. Instead, they include different narrative events from what appears to be a piece of fiction, with no direct reference to the student's specific query.
The question appears to be about a specific incident involving characters referred to as the Baron and the Baroness during a parley, which is a formal conference or negotiation between opposing sides in a dispute, especially a discussion of terms for an armistice. However, the provided excerpts do not mention these characters nor a parley involving them. From the given context, it seems the text may be taken from a literary work, and characters JD and DE are not explicitly mentioned or involved in the scenes provided.
The passages focus on various situations and characters: John and Kismine discussing their impending poverty and freedom, and concealing themselves while observing a battle in which the Washingtons' reign ends; Jane Withersteen's concern about her riders potentially being attacked; and a revelation of a grave act committed by Kismine's father. These scenarios paint dramatic events with potentially tragic outcomes but do not offer information on the fate or involvement of the Baron and the Baroness during a parley.
