What
do
you
mean
?
"
demanded
Mrs.
Weldon
.
"
Here
is
what
I
mean
,
Mrs.
Weldon
.
In
1871
--
consequently
two
years
ago
--
a
French
traveler
set
out
,
under
the
auspices
of
the
Paris
Geographical
Society
,
with
the
intention
of
crossing
Africa
from
the
west
to
the
east
.
His
point
of
departure
was
precisely
the
mouth
of
the
Congo
.
His
point
of
arrival
would
be
as
near
as
possible
to
Cape
Deldago
,
at
the
mouths
of
the
Rovuma
,
whose
course
he
would
descend
.
Now
,
this
French
traveler
was
named
Samuel
Vernon
.
"
"
Samuel
Vernon
!
"
repeated
Mrs.
Weldon
.
"
Yes
,
Mrs.
Weldon
;
and
those
two
names
begin
precisely
by
those
two
letters
which
Dingo
has
chosen
among
all
the
others
,
and
which
are
engraved
on
its
collar
.
"
"
Exactly
,
"
replied
Mrs.
Weldon
.
"
And
that
traveler
--
--
"
"
That
traveler
set
out
,
"
replied
Captain
Hull
,
"
and
has
not
been
heard
of
since
his
departure
.
"
"
Never
?
"
said
the
novice
.
"
Never
,
"
repeated
Captain
Hull
.
"
What
do
you
conclude
from
it
?
"
asked
Mrs.
Weldon
.
"
That
,
evidently
,
Samuel
Vernon
has
not
been
able
to
reach
the
eastern
coast
of
Africa
,
whether
he
may
have
been
made
prisoner
by
the
natives
,
whether
death
may
have
struck
him
on
the
way
.
