Pg 60-80

While on the portage to the next train station, the guide and the 3 men come across a religious place, while observing the camp they notice that there will be an execution/sacrifice/ burning alive of a woman. They act and are able to get her out of the camp at the very last second. because on this when Mr. Fogg reach the temporary destination of Calcutta he is arrested and taken to court where he replies guilty and pays bail instead of the one week in jail and the fine. During the trial Jean falsely accuses the priests of the sacrifice in a pagoda in Bombay itself, he learned about these temples in his unwelcome tours he had conducted himself with his curiosity. This in turn frees the woman of the priests' grasps. I felt like these pages were the most interesting in the book so far because of the action planning and tying in all a lot of the information given earlier. I also couldn't help but feel intrigued why the group had delayed their travels slightly to help someone that was for all they could tell was participating in a foreign religious ceremony.
