Falconer's Quest
“Harkness permitted his men to disembark to go into Marseilles in groups of at least two, preferably three, when not on watch. The officers, as well as Amelia Henning and the master, never set one foot on land alone. Sailors could not bear arms in a foreign port, but no one could force them to give up their billy clubs or working knives. These they wore in plain view. Ordered to remain outside the Panier district, they all were able to avoid trouble.
Each day Falconer took Matt out for a walk ab...out Marseilles. They visited the emperor’s museum, which was largely given over to prizes taken from Napoleon’s various conquests overseas. They visited ancient churches. They ate in a trio of restaurants. They watched the people. On the sixth day, their last but one at port, Falconer packed a rucksack with provisions and told Matt he would walk the young lad’s legs off. Matt took it as the challenge that it was, responding with a brilliant smile, the first since they had docked in the city.MoreLess
