Always the same impassible member

Clement T17 août 201030 septembre 2022

Always the same impassible member of the Reform Club, whom no incident could surprise, as unvarying as the ship’s chronometers, and seldom having the curiosity even to go upon the deck, he passed through the memorable scenes of the Red Sea with cold indifference; did not care to recognise the historic towns and villages which, along its borders, raised their picturesque outlines against the sky; and betrayed no fear of the dangers of the Arabic Gulf, which the old historians always spoke of with horror, and upon which the ancient navigators never ventured without propitiating the gods by ample sacrifices.

How did this eccentric personage pass his time on the Mongolia? He made his four hearty meals every day, regardless of the most persistent rolling and pitching on the part of the steamer; and he played whist indefatigably, for he had found partners as enthusiastic in the game as himself. A tax-collector, on the way to his post at Goa; the Rev. Decimus Smith, returning to his parish at Bombay; and a brigadier-general of the English army, who was about to rejoin his brigade at Benares, made up the party, and, with Mr. Fogg, played whist by the hour together in absorbing silence.

As for Passepartout, he, too, had escaped sea-sickness, and took his meals conscientiously in the forward cabin. He rather enjoyed the voyage, for he was well fed and well lodged, took a great interest in the scenes through which they were passing, and consoled himself with the delusion that his master’s whim would end at Bombay. He was pleased, on the day after leaving Suez, to find on deck the obliging person with whom he had walked and chatted on the quays.

« If I am not mistaken, » said he, approaching this person, with his most amiable smile, « you are the gentleman who so kindly volunteered to guide me at Suez? »

« Ah! I quite recognise you. You are the servant of the strange Englishman « Just so, monsieur. Fix. » Monsieur Fix, » resumed Passepartout, « I’m charmed to find you on board. Where are you bound? Like you, to Bombay. That’s capital! Have you made this trip before? Several times. I am one of the agents of the Peninsular Company. »

    Its like you learn my thoughts! You seem to grasp so
    much about this, like you wrote the book in it or something.

    I believe that you simply can do with a few % to pressure the message home a little bit, however other than that,
    this is fantastic blog. A great read. I will definitely be back.

    Hi there would you mind stating which blog platform you’re working with?
    I’m going to start my own blog soon but I’m having a tough time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.

    The reason I ask is because your layout seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique.
    P.S Apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!
