{{Tr|Stephen W. White}}. This translation begins: "In the year 1872, the house no. 7, Saville Row, Burlington Gardens—the house in which Sheridan died in 1814—was inhabited by Phileas Fogg, Esq., one of the most singular and most noticed members of the Reform Club of London, although he seemed to take care to do nothing which might attract attention."
