Two mysterious deaths occurred on the voyage , and not a clue to the disappearance of the deceased persons could be traced . In northern waters an elderly English lady passenger , who was travelling round the world with Miss Jean Mackenzie , her young niece , kissed her protege good - night as usual and read a prayer before retiring at 10 o ' clock ' one evening .
