That stands out for me anout parallel 1841, Bramwell always literally waiting for his ship to come in. That and his horrible ratty coat.
God, were his threads HORRIBLE or what??!! Made me want to cry when he'd have to stand near his cousins in those clothes and they were dressed to the 9's! But, after his ship comes in (what was he going to be anyway, an import/export guy?) and he's dressed for Daphne's funeral, now THOSE were some pimpin' clothes. He cleaned up good! But then, Frid always looked better in the period clothes anyway, especially 1897.
