Shall
I
tell
you
plainly
one
thing
,
sir
?
I
dread
almost
as
much
to
receive
any
tidings
of
my
vessel
as
to
remain
in
doubt
.
Uncertainty
is
still
hope
.
"
Then
in
a
low
voice
Morrel
added
--
"
This
delay
is
not
natural
.
The
Pharaon
left
Calcutta
the
5th
February
;
she
ought
to
have
been
here
a
month
ago
.
"
"
What
is
that
?
"
said
the
Englishman
.
"
What
is
the
meaning
of
that
noise
?
"
"
Oh
,
oh
!
"
cried
Morrel
,
turning
pale
,
"
what
is
it
?
"
A
loud
noise
was
heard
on
the
stairs
of
people
moving
hastily
,
and
half-stifled
sobs
.
Morrel
rose
and
advanced
to
the
door
;
but
his
strength
failed
him
and
he
sank
into
a
chair
.
The
two
men
remained
opposite
one
another
,
Morrel
trembling
in
every
limb
,
the
stranger
gazing
at
him
with
an
air
of
profound
pity
.

The
noise
had
ceased
;
but
it
seemed
that
Morrel
expected
something
--
something
had
occasioned
the
noise
,
and
something
must
follow
.
The
stranger
fancied
he
heard
footsteps
on
the
stairs
;
and
that
the
footsteps
,
which
were
those
of
several
persons
,
stopped
at
the
door
.
A
key
was
inserted
in
the
lock
of
the
first
door
,
and
the
creaking
of
hinges
was
audible
.
"
There
are
only
two
persons
who
have
the
key
to
that
door
,
"
murmured
Morrel
,
"
Cocles
and
Julie
.
"
At
this
instant
the
second
door
opened
,
and
the
young
girl
,
her
eyes
bathed
with
tears
,
appeared
.
Morrel
rose
tremblingly
,
supporting
himself
by
the
arm
of
the
chair
.
He
would
have
spoken
,
but
his
voice
failed
him
.
"
Oh
,
father
!
"
said
she
,
clasping
her
hands
,
"
forgive
your
child
for
being
the
bearer
of
evil
tidings
.
"
Morrel
again
changed
color
.
Julie
threw
herself
into
his
arms
.
"
Oh
,
father
,
father
!
"
murmured
she
,
"
courage
!

"
The
Pharaon
has
gone
down
,
then
?
"
said
Morrel
in
a
hoarse
voice
.
The
young
girl
did
not
speak
;
but
she
made
an
affirmative
sign
with
her
head
as
she
lay
on
her
father
's
breast
.
"
And
the
crew
?
"
asked
Morrel
.
"
Saved
,
"
said
the
girl
;
"
saved
by
the
crew
of
the
vessel
that
has
just
entered
the
harbor
.
"
Morrel
raised
his
two
hands
to
heaven
with
an
expression
of
resignation
and
sublime
gratitude
.
"
Thanks
,
my
God
,
"
said
he
,
"
at
least
thou
strikest
but
me
alone
.
"
A
tear
moistened
the
eye
of
the
phlegmatic
Englishman
.
