David gave Gwen a brooch for a birthday present. The opening of Sally's new enterprise, ' Stephanie,' was a great success. Bob passed his exam and went up to Scotland to stay with Grandfather Dale ; Angus Moray and Joan Dale revealed that they had been secretly engaged for some time; Grandfather was delighted until he discovered that they intended to leave King's Acre and run their own farm.
