Olwen was afraid to argue with Enyd and said little when her sister-in-law asked her to intervene and persuade Barrass not to support Pitcher in his unfair application.

‘Barrass has never had anything good happen to him,’ Olwen began, but at once she was shouted down.

‘Never had anything good happen to him? What about my mother giving him a room and a meal every night of every month? And what about my father allowing him to help deliver the letters? If it hadn’t been for that generous act Barrass and Pitcher wouldn’t have stood a chance of their application even being read!’

Olwen pleaded for Enyd to sit.

‘Please, Enyd, think of the baby to come. It isn’t good for you to get angry. Sit next to Mistress Powell and I’ll make you both a good cup of tea? Or coffee? We have a little if you fancy a change?’

‘The only change I want is for you to change Barrass’s black heart.’ But she sat in the small room and allowed herself to be pampered a little. She knew that Olwen’s loyalty was with Barrass, but she was determined to change her mind.
