Madame and Monsieur Boisson, however, could not be made to leave the ship, saying they would not do so Madame, that is, said it, and the brave Hercule, following her lead as usual, "would not leave," said she repeatedly, "until they once more touched terra firma," and not wishing they should be starved for their obstinacy, the skipper ordered Weston to look after the happy pair and provide them with food at the same time as he did the wounded and prisoners.

"Do you know, I think I like you much less than you like me," he said. Colonel Boyce seemed very well content. Colonel Boyce was established in the house, a guest of high honour.
