He
will
be
sure
to
succeed
,
or
the
Lords
of
the
Admiralty
must
have
hearts
harder
than
Portland
stone
.
"
But
,
notwithstanding
McNabbs
's
assurance
,
Lady
Helena
passed
the
night
in
great
anxiety
,
and
could
not
close
her
eyes
.
Mary
Grant
and
her
brother
were
up
very
early
next
morning
,
and
were
walking
about
in
the
courtyard
when
they
heard
the
sound
of
a
carriage
approaching
.
It
was
Lord
Glenarvan
;
and
,
almost
immediately
,
Lady
Helena
and
the
Major
came
out
to
meet
him
.
Lady
Helena
flew
toward
her
husband
the
moment
he
alighted
;
but
he
embraced
her
silently
,
and
looked
gloomy
and
disappointed
--
indeed
,
even
furious
.
"
Well
,
Edward
?
"
she
said
;
"
tell
me
.
"
"
Well
,
Helena
,
dear
;
those
people
have
no
heart
!
"
"
They
have
refused
?
"
"
Yes
.
They
have
refused
me
a
ship
!
They
talked
of
the
millions
that
had
been
wasted
in
search
for
Franklin
,
and
declared
the
document
was
obscure
and
unintelligible
.
And
,
then
,
they
said
it
was
two
years
now
since
they
were
cast
away
,
and
there
was
little
chance
of
finding
them
.
Besides
,
they
would
have
it
that
the
Indians
,
who
made
them
prisoners
,
would
have
dragged
them
into
the
interior
,
and
it
was
impossible
,
they
said
,
to
hunt
all
through
Patagonia
for
three
men
--
three
Scotchmen
;
that
the
search
would
be
vain
and
perilous
,
and
cost
more
lives
than
it
saved
.
In
short
,
they
assigned
all
the
reasons
that
people
invent
who
have
made
up
their
minds
to
refuse
.
The
truth
is
,
they
remembered
Captain
Grant
's
projects
,
and
that
is
the
secret
of
the
whole
affair
.
So
the
poor
fellow
is
lost
for
ever
.
"
"
My
father
!
my
poor
father
!
"
cried
Mary
Grant
,
throwing
herself
on
her
knees
before
Lord
Glenarvan
,
who
exclaimed
in
amazement
:
"
Your
father
?
What
?
Is
this
Miss
--
