'Two minutes before the advertised time of departure a young man came on board. He was carrying his own bag, which was disagreeably heavy, because he had no money left in francs and very little left in anything else. He had been in Paris writing a book and was coming home be cause, in the Course of his correspondence, he had got engaged to be married. His name was Adam Fenwick-Symes.'
