One of these, to our great regret, was forced to leave the expedition before the ship went south, while the other had to be ruled out of the shore party an awful disappointment to them both.

When the day came the Couillards produced a big, raw-boned, yellowish horse, and the Martins a little, white, long-haired nag; the two horses were harnessed, and Marius, buried in an old livery of Simon's, brought the carriage round to the door. Julien, who was in his best clothes, would have looked a little like his old, elegant self, if his long beard had not made him look common.
