6 — ' The Mark of the Devil'
Produced by James Crampsey
The dash between the rival fisher factions of Solway-side has now boiled up into violent action, and young Darsie Latimer finds himself in the very heart of it, by the side of the peace-loving Quaker Joshua Geddes and that of his less pacific friend' John Davies. Also mysteriously involved in this conflict is the Laird of the Solwav Lochs who again delivers Darsie from danger of death, this time at the hands of the murderous Cristal Nixon.
Tied up in it all too, by their various interests, are Alan Fairford. Peter Peebles, Wandering Willie and his companion Maggie, even the Girl in the Green Mantle.
The Laird has at last begun to show something of his hand in it all. ' know you,' he says to Latimer. ' And you and I are side by side, boy, in something grand and splendid that concerns not only our own little destinies but the destiny of the whole nation! '
