Capítulo 5, Página 22
"I
spent
the
whole
day,"
he
said,
"going
through
Lloyd's
registers
and
old
newspapers,
tracking
the
future
of
every
ship
that
stopped
at
Pondicherry
in
January
and
February
of
'83.
Thirty-six
ships
of
good
size
were
reported
there
during
those
months.
One,
the
Lone
Star,
caught
my
eye
because,
although
it
was
reported
as
leaving
London,
its
name
is
from
one
of
the
states
of
the
Union."
"Texas,
I
think."
"I'm
not
sure
which
one,
but
I
knew
the
ship
must
be
American."
"What
next?"
"I
checked
the
Dundee
records
and
found
the
Lone
Star
was
there
in
January
'85.
My
suspicion
was
confirmed.
I
then
looked
into
the
ships
currently
in
London."
"Yes?"
"The
Lone
Star
arrived
last
week.
I
went
to
the
Albert
Dock
and
found
it
left
the
river
on
the
early
tide
this
morning,
heading
home
to
Savannah.
I
sent
a
message
to
Gravesend
and
learned
it
had
passed
some
time
ago.
With
the
easterly
wind,
it's
likely
near
the
Isle
of
Wight
by
now."
"What
will
you
do
now?"
