I
slept
ill
.
Again
and
again
I
“
dreamed
that
I
was
dreaming
.
”
Now
—
this
is
an
observation
made
by
Edgar
Poe
—
when
one
suspects
that
one
is
dreaming
,
the
waking
comes
almost
instantly
.
I
woke
then
,
and
every
time
in
a
very
bad
humour
with
Captain
Len
Guy
.
The
idea
of
leaving
the
Kerguelens
on
the
Halbrane
had
full
possession
of
me
,
and
I
grew
more
and
more
angry
with
her
disobliging
captain
.
In
fact
,
I
passed
the
night
in
a
fever
of
indignation
,
and
only
recovered
my
temper
with
daylight
.
Nevertheless
I
was
determined
to
have
an
explanation
with
Captain
Len
Guy
about
his
detestable
conduct
.
Perhaps
I
should
fail
to
get
anything
out
of
that
human
hedgehog
,
but
at
least
I
should
have
given
him
a
piece
of
my
mind
.
I
went
out
at
eight
o
’
clock
in
the
morning
.
The
weather
was
abominable
.
Rain
,
mixed
with
snow
,
a
storm
coming
over
the
mountains
at
the
back
of
the
bay
from
the
west
,
clouds
scurrying
down
from
the
lower
zones
,
an
avalanche
of
wind
and
water
.
It
was
not
likely
that
Captain
Len
Guy
had
come
ashore
merely
to
enjoy
such
a
wetting
and
blowing
.
No
one
on
the
quay
;
of
course
not
.
As
for
my
getting
on
’
board
the
Halbrane
,
that
could
not
be
done
without
hailing
one
of
her
boats
,
and
the
boatswain
would
not
venture
to
send
it
for
me
.
“
Besides
,
”
I
reflected
,
“
on
his
quarter
-
deck
the
captain
is
at
home
,
and
neutral
ground
is
better
for
what
I
want
to
say
to
him
,
if
he
persists
in
his
unjustifiable
refusal
.
I
will
watch
him
this
time
,
and
if
his
boat
touches
the
quay
,
he
shall
not
succeed
in
avoiding
me
.
”
I
returned
to
the
Green
Cormorant
,
and
took
up
my
post
behind
the
window
panes
,
which
were
dimmed
by
the
hissing
rain
.
There
I
waited
,
nervous
,
impatient
,
and
in
a
state
of
growing
irritation
.
Two
hours
wore
away
thus
.
Then
,
with
the
instability
of
the
winds
in
the
Kerguelens
,
the
weather
became
calm
before
I
did
.
I
opened
my
window
,
and
at
the
same
moment
a
sailor
stepped
into
one
of
the
boats
of
the
Halbrane
and
laid
hold
of
a
pair
of
oars
,
while
a
second
man
seated
himself
in
the
back
,
but
without
taking
the
tiller
ropes
.
The
boat
touched
the
landing
,
place
and
Captain
Len
Guy
stepped
on
shore
.
In
a
few
seconds
I
was
out
of
the
inn
,
and
confronted
him
.
“
Sir
,
”
said
I
in
a
cold
hard
tone
.
Captain
Len
Guy
looked
at
me
steadily
,
and
I
was
struck
by
the
sadness
of
his
eyes
,
which
were
as
black
as
ink
.
Then
in
a
very
low
voice
he
asked
:
“
You
are
a
stranger
?
”
