About this book
The Destroyer, A Tale of International Intrigue, is by Burton Egbert Stevenson. The contents list includes chapters titled The Twenty-fifth of September, France in Mourning, Two Great Men Meet and At the Café des Voyageurs, among others. The text says a ship was a total loss, that only a twisted and useless mass of wreckage remained, and that in that wreckage lay three hundred of France's sailors.
At Dijon, the text says, there was a tremendous crowd, and a little red-legged Turco, weeping too, snatched off his fez and shouted “Vive la France!” The text says that the passion of M. Delcassé's life was and always had been revenge upon Germany. A character named Crochard says that after their escape they hastened to M. Vard's residence, where, as he anticipated, Vard's daughter and that admirable M. Webster, whom she loves, soon joined them.
