Story of Lady Grange.

A romance of St. Kllda is the story of Lady Grange. Wife of an eighteenth century Scottish lord of session, she was for some mysterious reason seized and carried off in the dark; she knew not by whom, and conveyed by night journeys to the Highland coast, and thence by sea to St. KHda. There among the few inhabitants she remained for several years a prisoner, provided, however, with a constant supply of food, and a woman to wait upon her. No inquiry was made for her, but at last she conveyed a letter to a friend by the daughter of a catechist, who hid it in a clue of yarn. A ship was sent to rescue her, but her jailers got wind of it and transferred her to the island of Herries, where she died. London Chronicle. ’
