There are Mohammedans on board. To-dayat noon, regardless of spectators, they went through their devotions, firstwashing face and hands and feet, then reciting their prayers, kneeling and put-ting their foreheads to the rug which they had first spread beneath them. Theirbehavior is a rebuke to Christians who, under such circumstances, would neglector postpone their devotions. Whatever else the Mohammedan neglects, hedoes not neglect his genuflexions. 122 T.
