Lady Victoria Campbell

98 "PASTORS AND MASTERS"
both of these letters and others which were not pub-
lished, show how wide was the range of her inquiries,
and on how many topics she sought for information
from this tender and fervent evangelist.
After the death of Miss King, Lady Emma was
determined Lady Victoria should have a complete
change, and arranged that she should accompany
them to those western isles which had only just
begun to appear on the horizon of her life. In a letter
written in 1875 she says : —
I am very glad to have been with her to the last.
She wandered a little sometimes. She asked me
for myself one day, and then, when she found it
was I, she muttered something about being alike.
She thought it was one of the others.
It is so difficult to take in one will never see the
dear face again. I am going to see her grave before
I go, it is not far from Dr. Guthrie's. I am so
glad Uncle John went. It was a glorious day,
and so Dot was not fussy about him. He came in
on Friday last to see her. She said she wished she
had words to express her gratitude to him. Just
in her old way, and then fussed about his cup of
tea being right.
The McNeills think of leaving this next Friday,
and go by Iona to Colonsay. I think it will be nice
going with them. I have not seen either place,
but naturally nothing can seem very cheerful just
now.
