Hanaud resisted it. He shook his head.

"Again," he said gravely, "I am to remind you that I am captain of

the ship and do not show my observation."

"Mme. Dauvray's motor-car has been found," he cried. "Let us go!"

Hanaud called for the bill and paid it. The three men left the

Villa des Fleurs together.
