These forms of speech, with occasional and slight variations, were always employed by Mr.Murmurtot as a medium of thought and sentiment.
In the midst of our conversation I noticed the man whom Rayel had pointed out to me when we arose from the breakfast-table.

He was standing against the rail, not twenty feet from where we sat, and as I looked at him he turned away and walked leisurely down the deck.

In a moment Rayel was on his feet, and, excusing himself, he proceeded in the same direction.

An hour later, as he had not returned, I left Hester with Mr.Murmurtot and went forward in quest of him.
