15th July 1964: Emily Nugent and Leonard Swindley's wedding day. Until recently, they had never been more than friends, but the thought of spending the rest of her life alone scared Emily and she had long carried a torch for Mr. Swindley, so (with some difficulty) she persuaded him that they should marry. As the guests waited at the Mission Hall, Emily told Jack Walker, who was to give her away, that she wasn't going to marry Swindley, as she had realised that it would be wrong for her to knowingly enter into a loveless marriage. When Swindley was informed, he went to speak to Emily to hear her explanation. He assured her that she had done the right thing.
