Dick Swinton and Dora vow to face a front line fate as their parting kiss marks a wartime romance. In town, Ormsby uncovers two forged bank checks tied to Mrs. Swinton and the old man Herresford. The mystery deepens as the bank manager traces altered sums and a looming repayment.
Vivian Ormsby lies ill with concussion as Dora tends him with care and restraint. The nurses and doctors forbid visitors, while Dora endures news blackouts and reads casualty lists in anxious hope. Ormsby imagines a future with Dora as wife, cherishing her soothing presence and distinctive voice at his bedside.
An ailing old man at Ormsby’s estate reacts to news of a seven thousand dollar loss as a bank visit unsettles him and reveals his volatile temper. Separately the battleship Orion is launched at Portsmouth with a 8400 ton hull, 684 feet long, armed with 13.5 inch guns and a 21 inch torpedo, in a ceremony attended by European royals and thousands of spectators.
Lady Winchester christened the Orion as 40,000 spectators watched the greased incline release the ship. A ton-weighted mechanism knocked away the dog shores, sending the steel vessel gliding twelve knots into the water amid cheers and the Marines’ band playing Rule Britannia.
