Then followed cries that the President had been murdered, interspersed with cries of "Kill the murderer!"

They must have come through the adjoining ferry house and across a low roof without touching the street at all, for they appeared as if by magic and no one seemed to know how they had got there. Their arrival was accompanied by much banter and horseplay among themselves, interspersed with questions to the ship's people, few of which could be answered. "Hey, pal, where are we going?"
