In this part of the story, Miss Pryor suggested to Mr. Le Poer that they would go and visit somewhere like Tranmere, so that Zillah could learn to relax. Instead, they remained at the Liverpool shore, where he had a surprise for them, "After staying a night in Liverpool, instead of crossing to the opposite shore, as I expected, he put us all- that is, Zillah, the two girls, and myself-on board the Belfast boat, and there we found ourselves floating across the Irish Channel" (pg. 61). In the end, Zillah would be very happy with where she is, even said to be as happy as she ever was in childhood. Today many Liverpool excursions are made for tourists to enjoy.
