Produced by James Crampsey
Darsie Latimer has gone from Edinburgh to the Solway Firth to have a fishing holiday, to be nearer the England of his birth-which he has been forbidden to enter until he inherits his fortune in four years' time when he is twenty-five-and, perhaps, to find romance. While fishing he is rescued from the quicksands by a mysterious stranger who takes him to his home for the night out of the storm. Darsie upsets his host and serving-man by asking for grace to be said before the evening meal, but rather than disappoint a guest his host summons-romance?
