Dr. Gardiner took Isabel Fielding's flat. On New Year's Eve the family went to King's Acre for Joan and Angus's wedding. Alec seemed depressed, and the reason for this became clear when the Dales returned to London. Denby Harris had a bad financial crash and Alec was arrested. Grandfather Dale sent for Miriam and the children. He and Dr. Dale stood surety for Alec's bail at the Magistrate's Court. Sally and Richard Fulton were worried about 'Stephanie,' and Raffaele made a tentative offer to buy it. The Owens came to London for the first night of Jenny's play, which was a great success.
