Let's see whether we can get on to Norwich, anyhow, shall we?
We may find that there are bridges down on that line." They relapsed once more into silence.

Presently the guard reappeared.
"Instructions to take you on to Yarmouth, if possible, sir," he announced, "and to collect the mileage at our destination." "That will be quite satisfactory," Mr.Dunster agreed.

"Let us be off, then, as soon as possible." Presently they crawled on.

They passed the boat train in Ipswich Station, where they stayed for a few moments.
Mr.Dunster bought wine and sandwiches, and his companion followed his example.

Then they continued their journey.
