Part 4 (1x4)

: 17, 1983

Ben informs Delie of troubles on Uncle Charles' farm but he puts on a brave face when speaking with Delie. Tom finalises the deal which puts Delie and Teddy into partnership as the new owners of the Philadelphia before departing for a new ship sailing the high seas. Brenton prepares an intimate dinner for Delie. Delie meets Bessie's friend Julia but when Brenton seems receptive to Julia's advances, Delie packs up and moves to Melbourne to continue her art education. Delie receives an offer to travel overseas from her patron, Alistair Raeburn, but Brenton makes a surprise appearance and proposes marriage. Delie's refusal to give an answer sends Brenton back to Echuca. Delie follows him only to learn he has already departed on a long voyage. Borrowing Bessie's horse and buggy, Delia chases after the Philaelphia and accepts Brenton's proposal.
