Line Bordas' relationship with Alain has cooled down. In spite of this, she is not considered him as a stranger but as his real brother, she communicated to him her decision to go to Madagascar, to Mananjary.

Don Bosco and his travelling companions passed through Asti, and the people never forgot him because it was a town near to his birthplace; and the inhabitants were happy that they passed through, even if only at the station. The nuns who accompanied him were amazed and astonished when they saw Don Bosco and the welcome of the people. They thought that Don Bosco was a severe and reserved person, but it is quite the opposite.
