Name change in novel

I'm now working on The Haunted Hotel by Wilkie Collins, but have come across a name change and don't know what to do about it.

In chapter 12 the three daughters of of Lord Mountbarry are named Lucy, Blanche, and Clara; Lucy is the eldest. In chapter 21 the eldest daughter is named Marion. I've seen this in the PG version, in a pdf of the 1892 version, and in a modern print version.

Should I leave the names as they are in the original, and hope nobody notices the name change? Or change Marion to Lucy in chapter 21, and hope nobody notices the discrepancy between the original and the MobileRead library version?
