Answer: Venezuela

The man from Scotland Yard, intimates that Fogg is bound for South America. Specifically, Caracas, Venezuela. The other members of the club are dismayed and reluctant to believe the accusations.

Answer: Henrietta

Mr. Fogg, purchases the Henrietta from the captain of the ship. They sacrifice all available burnable materials, in order to make their destination on time.

9. Why is Fogg released from jail?

Answer: The real culprit has been apprehended in Brighton.

Mr. Fix visits Fogg in jail. Mr. Fix apologizes profusely for his egregious error. He goes on to say that he has always considered Mr. Fogg to be a perfect gentleman. Mr. Fogg is not assuaged by the words of Mr. Fix. He is perturbed, but ever being the gentleman, Mr. Fogg chastises Mr. Fix, by saying that he has never enjoyed Mr. Fix's company and that Mr. Fix plays an abominable game of Whist.
