Becky sees a doctor go into the next door. Amelia mentions that Thomas Carrisford is a bachelor diamond prospector, and James and Molly ridicule Sara because of her father's involvement in the business. James sends Sara to Covent Garden, where she again sees Donald Carmichael (the boy who gave her a coin). Thomas talks to Solicitor Carmichael; he is in England to oversee Ralph's "little missus" as his ward and tell her that her father's diamond-prospecting venture is successful.
