Nor was Caillaud suspected, as the constable testified that he passed him on the opposite side of the street, as he followed the Secretary. The only conclusion, according to Bow Street, which was free from all doubt was, that whoever did the deed was a committee consisting of a single member. A reward of 500 pounds did not bring forward anybody who knew anything about the business.
Zachariah could not listen any longer, but went home, and all night long a continuous series of fearful images passed before his eyes condemned cells, ropes, gallows and the actual fall of the victim, down to the contortion of his muscles. He made up his mind on the following day that he would see Caillaud before he died, and he told his wife he was going.
"Did you not say that they should not come to this house again?" "Yes; but I meant I did not want to see them as friends. On business there is no reason why Caillaud should not come." "I cannot draw the line." "Zachariah, do you mean to call unconverted infidels your friends?"
Infinitely pathetic, therefore, is the moment when we separate for ever. Caillaud was unsettled for an instant, and then, slowly untwining the embrace, he made a sign to Pauline, who took Zachariah's hand and led him outside; the heavy well-oiled bolt of the lock shooting back under the key with a smooth strong thud between them.
The secretary of this very sub-committee, who was also treasurer, was one of the causes of the failure of the enterprise, for when the march began neither he nor the funds with which he had been entrusted could be found. After the club meetings in the evening there was often an adjournment to Caillaud's lodgings, where the Major, Zachariah, Caillaud, and Pauline sat up till close upon midnight.
Would to God" his wife started "would to God," he exclaimed fervently, "that these men could be brought into the Church of Christ!" "To be sure. Ask Mr. Caillaud, then, too." "If we do, we must ask his daughter also; he would not go out without her." "I was not aware he had a daughter. You never told me anything about her." "I never saw her till the other evening." "I don't know anything of her.
The Manchester clubs had set their hearts upon an expedition to London thousands strong; each man with a blanket to protect him and a petition in his hand. The discussion on this project was long and eager. The Major, Caillaud and Zachariah steadfastly opposed it; not because of its hardihood, but because of its folly.
She knows all his affairs, and is very useful to him." "So it seems. She must be VERY useful. Well, if it must be so, and it is on business, invite her too." "I think still it will be better at Caillaud's; there more room. There would be five of us." "How do you make five?" "There is the Major. And why, by the way, do you object to Caillaud and Pauline more than the Major? He is not converted."
The severity of manners to which he had been accustomed tended to produce an effect the very opposite to that which was designed; for it can hardly be doubted that if it were the custom in England for women to conceal the face, a glimpse of an eye or a nose would excite unpleasant thoughts. The dance came to an end, and as it was getting late Zachariah rose. "Stop," said Caillaud.
Sir A. Edmonstone's first intention was to visit the Thebaic Oasis; but understanding from Mr. Belzoni that Mr. Caillaud had already been there, but that there was another Oasis to the westward, which had never been visited by any European, he resolved to proceed thither. This Oasis was also visited by Drovetti much about I he same time: he calls it the Oasis of Dakel.
