She notes the very hard work demonstrated by his cousins Arthur and Frederick and reminds him that ‘talent without industry is a dangerous thing’.

News of friends and family including John Pearson who has a son, Richard, 3 weeks old and is to give up the inn in favour of a share in a wine business.
