Away, away from home, by half the circumference of the globe! One of the most frequent and unpleasant of my experiences since I entered the China Sea, is an oppressive sense of great distance from home, and the utter strangeness of everything around me, almost as though I had entered another planet. Monday, December 7th. The commander of the island, M. Bizot, visited me to-day.
"May you know every happiness, Lady Thormonde," he said. "Take care of Nicholas and make him quite well, he is the best fellow on earth." Alathea thanked him coldly. He is such a citizen of the world that he showed no surprise, and finally we were off on our way to the flat. Here Madame Bizot and her daughter, and the baby, awaited us! And in the creature's tiny hand was a bunch of violets.
She rose, holding the child with the greatest dignity The picture she made could be in the Sistine Chapel. "I beg your pardon" she said in a voice which was not quite steady "I did not know you had returned, and Madame Bizot asked me to hold little Augustine while she went to the next floor it shall not occur again!"
