As Lady Ludlow waits for her son Septimus to return from Italy, Harry Gregson is sent away to school.
Meanwhile, as Mr Buxton returns to town with his son, William, and his niece, Erminia, Miss Matty becomes concerned about another young person - Peggy Bell - who lives in an isolated cottage with her mother and domineering brother, Edward.
