  Speaker 1: We were very glad to get away, and there was

  Speaker 1: nothing more to keep us there. I declared my intention

• 1:50
  Speaker 1: to make some further observations, but he wrung my hand
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: warmly and wished me good bye. I had only time
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: to ask him one question before he left. Are you
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: not afraid that other attempts may be made while you
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: are away? No? Not, now that Darzac is in prison,
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: he answered, with this strange remark. He laughed. I was

  Speaker 1: not to see him again until the day of Darzac's
