The time required for the divergence is little more than two hours; with Monsieur's walking powers perhaps not so much; besides, there is plenty of time, as we shall reach Martigny much too soon for the train." "In that case we shall make the detour," said Lewis. "Are the roads difficult?" "No; quite easy.

One pair goes on the trail down the Italian slope toward Aosta, the other travels the Swiss path leading to Martigny. None of them turns back until the last cabin of refuge has been reached, where they look to see if any person is waiting. It is not unusual for the dogs to stay out all night in a hard storm.

So I felt more and more at liberty to devote myself to Miss Kemball in such moments as she would permit me and I found her fascination increasing in a ratio quite geometrical. Martigny was still abed, and, so the ship's doctor told me, was improving very slowly. It was Tuesday evening that Mrs.

Here I am, sitting at my window, overlooking Lake Leman.

I went forward to the smoking room, and looked over the colored plan of the ship posted there.
