Mrs. Dale, the doctor's wife, records the daily happenings in the life of her family
Script by Billy Thatcher
Alec, convinced the police were after him, got into a very nervous state. Miriam began to wonder if he had been at all involved in Denby Harris 's escape. Joyce suspected she might have heart trouble, so Mrs. Freeman persuaded her to visit Dr. Fenimore. He told her there was nothing wrong. Dr. Dale said it might actually help Rachel if she met Denby Harris. Sally, driving to Gimlet Green, gave a lift to a man who turned out to be Harris. She took him to Rose Cottage and arranged for Rachel to meet him there. Zenobia recognised him, but promised to say nothing. Harris told Rachel he was leaving the country.
