Description of Fredrick Hale (Margaret's older brother):

Six or seven years ago, he was involved in some “terrible affair” in the navy, resulting in his being “lost” to the family forever. Later, Margaret learns that Frederick led a mutiny, standing up against a tyrannical sea-captain, and risks hanging if he sets foot in England again. After spending time as a fugitive in South America, he has most recently been living in Cadiz, Spain. When Margaret writes that Mrs. Hale is dying, he risks a trip to England for a brief reunion. He narrowly escapes Milton after Leonards tries to stop him at the train station. Frederick marries Dolores Barbour after he returns to Spain and also converts to Catholicism out of love for her.
