Dracula chapter 3:"Mina's story" -Lucy is in danger

In this summary of Chapter III the words in bold are wrong. Rewrite the text replacing
them - with words containing what is true for the story:
Mina stayed with her friend Annie and her mother in a town by the mountains, Whitby,
while Jonathan was away. Lucy was going to get married to Arthur Holmwood, so she
was very sad. At night, Mina and Lucy slept with the bedroom door open because Mina
sometimes walked in her sleep.
One stormy night a Russian bus arrived at Whitby. There were boxes on it, full of earth,
with no-one dead or alive, but with a big black cat that jumped off the ship and ran up
a hill there.
The following day Mina woke up and found that Lucy was not in the bedroom. Mina
looked for her in the house but she finally found Lucy dancing in the churchyard, with
something dark and horrible in front of her. When Mina called her, a white face and
burning red eyes looked up at Mina. Lucy, asleep in the moonlight, had two drops of
water in her neck.
Lucy started to get better at night, but when Mina received a letter from Jonathan who
was ill in a hospital at Budapest, Mina went to him. He got worse and gave her his diary
to read about Castle Dracula and how he had escaped from there. Later they got married
and, back in Transylvania, Jonathan saw the Count in the street. At home, Mina had a
letter from Jonathan telling her that Lucy was dead.
