The Patagonia [EPUB ebook] 

This 1891 novelette by Henry James tells of an ocean voyage on a ship called The Patagonia, sailing from Boston to Liverpool. The unnamed narrator is friends with a Mrs. Nettlepoint, a woman of good family with a son names Jason. Accompanying them — somewhat unexpectedly — is a young woman named Grace Mavis, who is to marry a childhood friend whom she has not seen for ten years.
