The Reverend's Daughter

Elizabeth clashes with Daniel over his support for the Manchester Ship Canal, which she fears will weaken Liverpool as a port. Her anger is compounded when she is approached for patronage by charismatic young orphanage director Marcus Simmons, who tells her that families are being evicted to clear the land for the canal's construction. Daniel is innocent of this fact but it enables him to expose a business partner immorally buying up land to sell at a profit to the constructors and he supports the orphanage. James travels to Africa with missionaries as passengers, Reverend Webster and his daughter Hannah, relatives of Anne, his late wife. Hannah's religious zeal, however, proves to be a liability whilst Letty has still not told James her news.

Highly Explosive

Letty tells James that she is pregnant and Charlotte gives William the same news. He is stunned and, as he does not love her, refuses to marry her - although she has confided in Samuel that she believes they will wed. Samuel takes the news badly and, when he and James, sailing to Ireland, come across a deserted steamer full of high explosives, feels sufficiently reckless to help James put the cargo overboard, though they are successful and claim the salvage rights. William turns twenty-one and inherits his mother's share of the Frazer yard, which he intends to sell.

Captain Baines brings home a ship from South America, whose dying captain is an old enemy of his. Baines falls for the man's wife and considers buying the ship when her husband dies but James beats him to it.

Men of Honour

As the council election approaches, Elizabeth, equally disapproving of her husband's interest in the Manchester Ship Canal and his rival Beaumont's plan to enrich himself with his 'new' Liverpool, ensures that each hears of, and publicizes, the other's plan so that both lose the election to her candidate, Marcus Simmons. Daniel then announces that he will be standing as a Manchester M.P. James, stuck in Ireland thanks to port inspectors with vested interests, finally returns to Liverpool for the birth of his son, though the child is weak and is not expected to survive.

To take his mind off his son's death James sails to Africa with Captain Baines to find diamonds but they end up adrift in an open boat for three months. Letty never doubts that he will come back and, on his return, he gives half of the Onedin Line to Samuel, who has married Charlotte just in time for the birth of her son.
