"A breaker of water be sugared!" came another voice; "a breaker half full, you mean." Then the steward's voice: "So it is; there's not more than a couple of gallons in her." "My God!" said Le Farge. "DAMN that Irishman!" "There's not more than'll give us two half pannikins apiece all round," said the steward. "Maybe," said Le Farge, "the quarter-boat's better stocked; pull for her."
When the Arago, bound for Papetee, picked up the boats of the Northumberland, only the people in the long-boat were alive. Le Farge, the captain, was mad, and he never recovered his reason. Lestrange was utterly shattered; the awful experience in the boats and the loss of the children had left him a seemingly helpless wreck.
"I'm thinking about the children," said Lestrange, seeming not to hear the captain's words. "Should anything happen to me before we reach port, I should like you to do something for me. It's only this: dispose of my body without without the children knowing. It has been in my mind to ask you this for some days. Captain, those children know nothing of death." Le Farge moved uneasily in his chair.
It should express what it was; and this was something that neither Adams nor La Farge understood. Under the first blast of this furnace-heat, the lights seemed fairly to go out. He felt nothing in common with the world as it promised to be. He was ready to quit it, and the easiest path led back to the east; but he could not venture alone, and the rarest of animals is a companion.
Le Farge made to rise, and the stroke oar struck at him, catching him in the wind and doubling him up in the bottom of the boat. "Give us some, for God's sake!" came the mate's voice; "we're parched with rowing, and there's a woman on board!" The fellow in the bow of the long-boat, as if someone had suddenly struck him, broke into a tornado of blasphemy.
Anne hesitated, debating with herself whether her uncle would wish her to tell. Mademoiselle changed the question. "When he had you to promise that, were you expecting to go to Nantes?" "Yes, Mamzelle." Anne was sure she might answer this. "And then seeing Dr. La Farge changed all the plans, you know." Mademoiselle nodded her head. Yes, she knew.

“During these moments,” says John La Farge in his “Considerations on Painting,” “are not the spectators excusable who live for the moment a serene existence, feeling as if they had made the work they admire?”
"Wal, there's this: I tole Jake Farge that I'd shoot him on sight, and I'm mighty glad that someone else has saved me the trouble. You mean to do me up; I see that plain. I hated yer comin' into a country that won't support a crowd, and I've made things hot for more'n one of ye. But I wasn't thinkin' o' land when I warned Jake Farge not to set foot on my ranch." "What was you thinkin' of?"
Rogers figured that this bespoke embarrassment; but, to the biased understanding of the hostile La Farge, there was something falsely theatrical even in the way Weil cleared his throat. "Once a grandstander always a grandstander!" he muttered derisively. "What did you say?" whispered Rogers. "Nothing," replied La Farge "just thinking out loud. Listen to what Foxy Issy has to say for himself."
