That effected, they pursued their way with the same caution, till after a long march, and without encountering a human being, they reached the base of the huge rock which Wallace had made his fortress. Ker, who expected to find it surrounded by the English army, was amazed at the deathlike solitude. "The place is deserted," cried he.
"Lieutenant Davon, of the British Navy, of H.M.S. Standard, which is stationed at the Bermudas." Emotion choked me so that it was impossible for me to utter a word. "We have come to rescue you from Ker Karraje, and also propose to carry off Thomas Roch," he added. "Thomas Roch?" I stammered. "Yes, the document signed by you was found on the beach at St. George "

England, France, Germany, Russia and America vainly dispatched warships in pursuit of the phantom vessel which disappeared, no one knew whither, after robberies and murders that could not be prevented or punished had been committed by her crew. One day this series of crimes came to an end, and no more was heard of Ker Karraje. Had he abandoned the Pacific for other seas?
