Harry
Grant
was
never
spoken
of
;
they
were
no
longer
in
a
position
to
make
any
effort
on
his
behalf
.
If
his
name
was
uttered
at
all
,
it
was
between
his
daughter
and
John
Mangles
.
John
had
never
reminded
Mary
of
what
she
had
said
to
him
on
that
last
night
at
Ware-Atoua
.
He
was
too
wise
to
take
advantage
of
a
word
spoken
in
a
moment
of
despair
.
When
he
mentioned
Captain
Grant
,
John
always
spoke
of
further
search
.
He
assured
Mary
that
Lord
Glenarvan
would
re-embark
in
the
enterprise
.
He
persistently
returned
to
the
fact
that
the
authenticity
of
the
document
was
indisputable
,
and
that
therefore
Harry
Grant
was
somewhere
to
be
found
,
and
that
they
would
find
him
,
if
they
had
to
try
all
over
the
world
.
Mary
drank
in
his
words
,
and
she
and
John
,
united
by
the
same
thought
,
cherished
the
same
hope
.
Often
Lady
Helena
joined
in
the
conversation
;
but
she
did
not
participate
in
their
illusions
,
though
she
refrained
from
chilling
their
enthusiasm
.
McNabbs
,
Robert
,
Wilson
,
and
Mulrady
kept
up
their
hunting
parties
,
without
going
far
from
the
rest
,
and
each
one
furnished
his
QUOTA
of
game
.
Paganel
,
arrayed
in
his
flax
mat
,
kept
himself
aloof
,
in
a
silent
and
pensive
mood
.
And
yet
,
it
is
only
justice
to
say
,
in
spite
of
the
general
rule
that
,
in
the
midst
of
trials
,
dangers
,
fatigues
,
and
privations
,
the
most
amiable
dispositions
become
ruffled
and
embittered
,
all
our
travelers
were
united
,
devoted
,
ready
to
die
for
one
another
.
On
the
25th
of
February
,
their
progress
was
stopped
by
a
river
which
answered
to
the
Wakari
on
Paganel
's
map
,
and
was
easily
forded
.
For
two
days
plains
of
low
scrub
succeeded
each
other
without
interruption
.
Half
the
distance
from
Lake
Taupo
to
the
coast
had
been
traversed
without
accident
,
though
not
without
fatigue
.
Then
the
scene
changed
to
immense
and
interminable
forests
,
which
reminded
them
of
Australia
,
but
here
the
kauri
took
the
place
of
the
eucalyptus
.
Although
their
enthusiasm
had
been
incessantly
called
forth
during
their
four
months
'
journey
,
Glenarvan
and
his
companions
were
compelled
to
admire
and
wonder
at
those
gigantic
pines
,
worthy
rivals
of
the
Cedars
of
Lebanon
,
and
the
"
Mammoth
trees
"
of
California
.
The
kauris
measured
a
hundred
feet
high
,
before
the
ramification
of
the
branches
.
They
grew
in
isolated
clumps
,
and
the
forest
was
not
composed
of
trees
,
but
of
innumerable
groups
of
trees
,
which
spread
their
green
canopies
in
the
air
two
hundred
feet
from
the
ground
.
Some
of
these
pines
,
still
young
,
about
a
hundred
years
old
,
resembled
the
red
pine
of
Europe
.
They
had
a
dark
crown
surmounted
by
a
dark
conical
shoot
.
Their
older
brethren
,
five
or
six
hundred
years
of
age
,
formed
great
green
pavilions
supported
on
the
inextricable
network
of
their
branches
.
These
patriarchs
of
the
New
Zealand
forest
measured
fifty
yards
in
circumference
,
and
the
united
arms
of
all
the
travelers
could
not
embrace
the
giant
trunk
.
