The Master of Appleby Chapter Ten Continued
The narrator recalls a dawn river crossing at Macgowan's Ford during a Franklin era mission with Dan Morgan and General Greene allies. The party, including Dick and Yeates, fight through a water ford against Sir Henry Clinton’s detachment, rallying Davidson’s riflemen to cover the retreat. They escape with casualties, then ride toward the Appleby demesne, torn between love, loyalties, and reclaiming Margery’s household.
