Lord
Glenarvan
was
more
collected
,
and
said
,
"
Sir
,
to
whom
have
I
the
honor
of
speaking
?
"
"
To
Jacques
Eliacin
Francois
Marie
Paganel
,
Secretary
of
the
Geographical
Society
of
Paris
,
Corresponding
Member
of

Societies
of
Berlin
,

and

and

of
the
East
Indies
;
who
,
after
having
spent
twenty
years
of
his
life
in
geographical
work
in
the
study
,
wishes
to
see
active
service
,
and
is
on
his
way
to
India
to
gain
for
the
science
what
information
he
can
by
following
up
the
footsteps
of
great
travelers
.
"
THE
Secretary
of
the
Geographical
Society
was
evidently
an
amiable
personage
,
for
all
this
was
said
in
a
most
charming
manner
.
Lord
Glenarvan
knew
quite
well
who
he
was
now
,
for
he
had
often
heard
Paganel
spoken
of
,
and
was
aware
of
his
merits
.
His
geographical
works
,
his
papers
on
modern
discoveries
,
inserted
in
the
reports
of
the
Society
,
and
his
world-wide
correspondence
,
gave
him
a
most
distinguished
place
among
the
LITERATI
of
France
.
Lord
Glenarvan
could
not
but
welcome
such
a
guest
,
and
shook
hands
cordially
.
"
And
now
that
our
introductions
are
over
,
"
he
added
,
"
you
will
allow
me
,
Monsieur
Paganel
,
to
ask
you
a
question
?
"
"
Twenty
,
my
Lord
,
"
replied
Paganel
;
"
it
will
always
be
a
pleasure
to
converse
with
you
.
"
"
Was
it
last
evening
that
you
came
on
board
this
vessel
?
"
"
Yes
,
my
Lord
,
about
8
o'clock
.
I
jumped
into
a
cab
at
the
Caledonian
Railway
,
and
from
the
cab
into
the
SCOTIA
,
where
I
had
booked
my
cabin
before
I
left
Paris
.
It
was
a
dark
night
,
and
I
saw
no
one
on
board
,
so
I
found
cabin
No.
6
,
and
went
to
my
berth
immediately
,
for
I
had
heard
that
the
best
way
to
prevent
sea-sickness
is
to
go
to
bed
as
soon
as
you
start
,
and
not
to
stir
for
the
first
few
days
;
and
,
moreover
,
I
had
been
traveling
for
thirty
hours
.
So
I
tucked
myself
in
,
and
slept
conscientiously
,
I
assure
you
,
for
thirty-six
hours
.
"
Paganel
's
listeners
understood
the
whole
mystery
,
now
,
of
his
presence
on
the
Duncan
.
The
French
traveler
had
mistaken
his
vessel
,
and
gone
on
board
while
the
crew
were
attending
the
service
at
St.
Mungo
's
.
All
was
explained
.
But
what
would
the
learned
geographer
say
,
when
he
heard
the
name
and
destination
of
the
ship
,
in
which
he
had
taken
passage
?
