In North and South, Margaret Hale's older brother named Frederick takes refuge in Cadiz after living briefly in South America following a mutiny on a British naval ship. Frederick joins in the mutiny while serving under a very brual officer in the British navy. In Cadiz, Fred finds work for a Mr. Barbour, a British merchant, and becomes engaged to his Anglo-Spanish daughter Dolores. Frederick comes to Milton at Margaret's request to pay his respects to his dying mother. He risks his safety to do so. Today tourists appreciate Cadiz for its beautiful beaches, rich history, and sunny skies.
