108    2,   18|          and so did Lady Helena and Mary Grant. A more timorous man
109    2,   18|      Mulrady had gone. Lady Helena, Mary Grant, Glenarvan and Paganel
110    2,   18|            Think of Lady Helena, of Mary Grant, of all who are left.

136    3,   11|           in his despair. “Ah! dear Mary—”~The mat was lifted, and
137    3,   11|   indiscriminately. Lady Helena and Mary Grant were grateful to Heaven

151    3,   15|             try all over the world. Mary drank in his words, and
152    3,   16|            instant his eyes fell on Mary and Robert Grant, and he
153    3,   16|         Helena yielded to his wish. Mary Grant sat beside her, near
154    3,   17|            to Lady Helena’s saloon. Mary Grant was to be present
155    3,   17|           retired to her cabin with Mary Grant, and the quartermaster

175    3,   19|        father!”~It was too much for Mary. Overcome with emotion,
176    3,   19|            heard my father’s voice; Mary heard it too!”~Just at this

186    3,   20|          most willingly. Robert and Mary were eagerly longing to
