A
true
Englishman
does
n't
joke
when
he
is
talking
about
so
serious
a
thing
as
a
wager
,
"
replied
Phileas
Fogg
,
solemnly
.
"
I
will
bet
twenty
thousand
pounds
against
anyone
who
wishes
that
I
will
make
the
tour
of
the
world
in
eighty
days
or
less
;
in
nineteen
hundred
and
twenty
hours
,
or
a
hundred
and
fifteen
thousand
two
hundred
minutes
.
Do
you
accept
?
"
"
We
accept
,
"
replied
Messrs.
Stuart
,
Fallentin
,
Sullivan
,
Flanagan
,
and
Ralph
,
after
consulting
each
other
.
"
Good
,
"
said
Mr.
Fogg
.
"
The
train
leaves
for
Dover
at
a
quarter
before
nine
.
I
will
take
it
.
"
"
This
very
evening
?
"
asked
Stuart
.
"
This
very
evening
,
"
returned
Phileas
Fogg
.
He
took
out
and
consulted
a
pocket
almanac
,
and
added
,
"
As
today
is
Wednesday
,
the
2nd
of
October
,
I
shall
be
due
in
London
in
this
very
room
of
the
Reform
Club
,
on
Saturday
,
the
21st
of
December
,
at
a
quarter
before
nine
p.
m.
;
or
else
the
twenty
thousand
pounds
,
now
deposited
in
my
name
at
Baring
's
,
will
belong
to
you
,
in
fact
and
in
right
,
gentlemen
.
Here
is
a
cheque
for
the
amount
.
"
A
memorandum
of
the
wager
was
at
once
drawn
up
and
signed
by
the
six
parties
,
during
which
Phileas
Fogg
preserved
a
stoical
composure
.
He
certainly
did
not
bet
to
win
,
and
had
only
staked
the
twenty
thousand
pounds
,
half
of
his
fortune
,
because
he
foresaw
that
he
might
have
to
expend
the
other
half
to
carry
out
this
difficult
,
not
to
say
unattainable
,
project
.
As
for
his
antagonists
,
they
seemed
much
agitated
;
not
so
much
by
the
value
of
their
stake
,
as
because
they
had
some
scruples
about
betting
under
conditions
so
difficult
to
their
friend
.
The
clock
struck
seven
,
and
the
party
offered
to
suspend
the
game
so
that
Mr.
Fogg
might
make
his
preparations
for
departure
.
"
I
am
quite
ready
now
,
"
was
his
tranquil
response
.
"
Diamonds
are
trumps
:
be
so
good
as
to
play
,
gentlemen
.
"
Having
won
twenty
guineas
at
whist
,
and
taken
leave
of
his
friends
,
Phileas
Fogg
,
at
twenty-five
minutes
past
seven
,
left
the
Reform
Club
.
Passepartout
,
who
had
conscientiously
studied
the
programme
of
his
duties
,
was
more
than
surprised
to
see
his
master
guilty
of
the
inexactness
of
appearing
at
this
unaccustomed
hour
;
for
,
according
to
rule
,
he
was
not
due
in
Saville
Row
until
precisely
midnight
.
