Richard booked passages for Jean Tremayne and her daughter to return to England on the same boat as himself. He persuaded Jean to allow him to pay their fares. Vicky Clare, on a ten-day visit to Paris, travelled on the same flight as Bob and Kate. Kate told Vicky she might return to Paris as she could get her old job back at the Embassy. Fickling saw Maisie meet her disreputable man friend in the Park. Maisie told Sally she might have to leave shortly. Sam Odgers bought a second shop and tried to persuade Dotty to manage it for him.

of Our Day and Age
13—'The Dark Shadow'
When Lilian Lang was nine years old her mother was taken to a mental hospital where she spent several years. The stress of her day and age-unemployment and domestic hardship in the 1930s-proved too much for her. Lilian grew up under this dark shadow even after her mother returned home. Her marriage didn't work out and, like her mother, she found that the stress of her day and age was more than she was equipped to bear. She too spent a period in a mental hospital. The treatment she received and her own courage and intelligence have now dispelled her dark shadow and made her a valuable member of society.
