On landing, the Count turned towards the cemetery, where he felt sure of finding Morel.
He, too, ten years ago, had piously sought out a tomb, and sought it vainly.
He, who returned to France with millions, had been unable to find the grave of his father, who had perished from hunger.

So much the better, for I must leave you, but I carry your word with me, do I not?"
"'Ah, Count, I shall forget it.'
