1Stuart took up the pack with a feverish hand; then suddenly put them down again. "Well, Mr. Fogg," said he, "it shall be
2so: I will wager the four thousand on it." "Calm yourself, my dear Stuart," said Fallentin. "It's only a joke." "When I
3say I'll wager," returned Stuart, "I mean it." "All right," said Mr. Fogg; and, turning to the others, he continued: "I
4have a deposit of twenty thousand at Baring's which I will willingly risk upon it." "Twenty thousand pounds!" cried
5Sullivan. "Twenty thousand pounds, which you would lose by a single accidental delay!" "The unforeseen does not exist,"
6quietly replied Phileas Fogg. "But, Mr. Fogg, eighty days are only the estimate of the least possible time in which the
7journey can be made." "A well-used minimum suffices for everything." "But, in order not to exceed it, you must jump
8mathematically from the trains upon the steamers, and from the steamers upon the trains again." "I will
9jump--mathematically." "You are joking." "A true Englishman doesn't joke when he is talking about so serious a thing as
10a wager," replied Phileas Fogg, solemnly. "I will bet twenty thousand pounds against anyone who wishes that I will make
11the tour of the world in eighty days or less; in nineteen hundred and twenty hours, or a hundred and fifteen thousand
12two hundred minutes. Do you accept?" "We accept," replied Messrs. Stuart, Fallentin, Sullivan, Flanagan, and Ralph,
13after consulting each other. "Good," said Mr. Fogg. "The train leaves for Dover at a quarter before nine. I will take
14it." "This very evening?" asked Stuart. "This very evening," returned Phileas Fogg. He took out and consulted a pocket
15almanac, and added, "As today is Wednesday, the 2nd of October, I shall be due in London in this very room of the Reform
16Club, on Saturday, the 21st of December, at a quarter before nine p.m.; or else the twenty thousand pounds, now
17deposited in my name at Baring's, will belong to you, in fact and in right, gentlemen. Here is a cheque for the amount."
18A memorandum of the wager was at once drawn up and signed by the six parties, during which Phileas Fogg preserved a
19stoical composure. He certainly did not bet to win, and had only staked the twenty thousand pounds, half of his fortune,
20because he foresaw that he might have to expend the other half to carry out this difficult, not to say unattainable,
21project. As for his antagonists, they seemed much agitated; not so much by the value of their stake, as because they had
22some scruples about betting under conditions so difficult to their friend. The clock struck seven, and the party offered
23to suspend the game so that Mr. Fogg might make his preparations for departure. "I am quite ready now," was his tranquil
24response. "Diamonds are trumps: be so good as to play, gentlemen."
