Van Helsing roughly put the facts before us first, "The Czarina Catherine left the Thames yesterday morning. It will take her at the quickest speed she has ever made at least three weeks to reach Varna. But we can travel overland to the same place in three days.
"And now tell me how you like it here?" began the detective. Varna answered with a low soft voice, "Oh, I like it very much, sir." As he spoke he looked up at Gyuri, whose eyes still bore their commanding expression. "They treat you kindly here?" "Oh, yes." "The doctor is very good to you?" "Ah, the doctor is so good!" Varna's dull eyes brightened. "And the others are good to you also?"
There's nothing but this constant sitting in a boat and drifting down the river." "Well, what more do you want?" said Charlie. "I'm sure I don't mind. This is a sort of paradise to what we shall probably have to go through." "I'll tell you what we'll do," said Helmar suddenly; "we are all a bit tired of the river. The next decent town we come to we'll get out and take the train on to Varna.
From Venice southwards, again, Florence, Rome, Naples, Sicily, by sea to Athens and on to Constantinople, familiar to him already from former visits up the Bosphorus, by the Black Sea to Varna, and then, again, a long period of restful sleep during the endless railway journey Pesth, Vienna, rapidly revisited and back at last to Prague, to the cold and the gray snow and the black sky.

In 1451 Sultan Murad II died and was succeeded by the Sultan Mohammed.
Elizabeth, who sat next him, saw this by-play, and her voice was cold as she commented: "Homage is a delightful thing, but it spoils children." Nana Sahib leaned across Barlow: "My dear Miss Hodson, these dancers always play to the gods it is their trade. But there is safety in caste in varna, which is the old Brahmin name for caste, meaning colour.
My Lords, I think I have shown that the charges made against the Congress on these three grounds the frontiers of the Balkans, the non-retention of Sofia, and the giving up of Varna have no foundation whatever.
At Constantinople I had an urgent summons from my daughter's medical attendants, and started at an hour's notice for home by the overland route, such as it then was. Leaving Constantinople on a Tuesday at two o'clock by the Austrian Lloyd steamer for Varna, I reached my own house in Yorkshire shortly after midnight on the following Sunday.
