After her attempt to return to her own timeline failed, Max set out with Chloe and Rachel to follow their friends, the band The High Seas, on their cross-country tour to a festival in Florida. Also traveling across the country are Rachel’s fellow cast members in Hamlet – also bound for Florida. When they bumped into Max, Chloe and Rachel on the Grand Canyon trail, they took a Team Hamlet photo, but Laurence fell off the cliff! In one timeline, Max used her power to save him, in the other Chloe and the High Seas found him alone on the edge – the rest of the cast having gone for help. After bringing Lawrence back to the motel, Chloe confronted Tristan, who had travelled across timelines to find her. Tristan told Chloe everything, and the pair began planning how to bring Max home. After a long day, Max was kept awake, wondering if she was on the right path. Chloe apologized to Max for pulling her back out of the transect, because she wasn’t ready to lose her. Max told that it was okay: if there’s one thing she can trust in any timeline, it’s Chloe Price.
A very busy day. Lord and Lady Carrington arrived from England. Miss Harbord, 3 Gentlemen in Suite, 3 children, two nurses, two maids, 2 valets. Every room occupied. 47 to dinner-in State dining room-and 500 in the evening. All went off capitally. We got to bed soon after 2 a.m.' The reliable, hard-working and loyal Emma Southgate began her diary when she journeyed across rough seas and under stormy skies from England to Australia in 1884. She travelled as lady's maid to Lady Loch, wife of the newly appointed Governor of Victoria. When they arrived in Melbourne and took up residence in the magnificent Government House, Emma had the presence of mind to continue her record of daily life. The legacy of her diligence is published here for the first time. Through Emma's words we can relive the halcyon days of colonial times: sumptuous parties in elegant ballrooms and receptions on rolling lawns; stylish travel through the colonies of Victoria, Tasmania, New South Wales and South Australia; holidays in a grand home at Mount Macedon; important international visitors; and the social whirl that accompanied occasions such as Melbourne Cup week. These events are charmingly described in Emma's diaries from a behind-the-scenes point of view-the weariness of having to serve tea to thousands of 'ladies and gentlemen', visits to the poor and excursions to the beach, illnesses among staff and the kindnesses of her employers. Emma's authentic evocation of her life sparkles. Unpretentious and forthright, Emma's words captivate the reader as they bring to life the people, the places and the times. Besides Emma's accounts, Helen Vellacott has placed the newspaper reports of the day that show the official view-often quite different from Emma's observations. In this way, and with intriguing additional comment and information, Diary of a Lady's Maid gives us an insight into early Australian society.
