Having been a man of camps and considerable lonely wanderings about the world , he had been able to gratify this tendency to decide and act quickly . But it was not so simple with a party of women , and when he announced that they were to start next morning early there was some silent consternation among them . However , such was the force of Mr. Campbell 's personality when he announced a decision that not even that fearless and redoubtable woman , Helen Campbell , had the courage to raise any objections . It was true she had engaged a masseuse at eleven o'clock ; the laundry had not been finished ; certain persons had planned to shampoo heads , and Mme. Fontaine had asked permission to call in the afternoon . `` All of which things must be postponed and overlooked , '' thought Miss Campbell . Mr. Campbell had hired a villa for their short stay . Komatsu was to go along as cook and to carry excess luggage .
