The plain of Jellalabad and of Nagpore, stud the valley of Cabul are literally strewn with these monuments. Major Biddulph, when he ascended the valleys of the Hindoo Koosh Mountains, was astonished to see on every side megalithic monuments resembling those of his own country, and, like them, the work of an unknown race.
Old Mrs Stafford, who had been for some time in declining health, died; and the day after her funeral Emily and the child disappeared. The idea was that either Biddulph had won her over, or that she, frightened by his threats, had gone off secretly to escape from him, thinking that by some means or other he would get hold of the boy.

Russell: sent the porter with note to him: "Mr. Russell gone to see his brother at the Charter-house."
