Description: Twins Gabriel and Grace help their parents run the Great George Street Livery Stables in Charlottetown. They are part of the excitement as a circus comes to town and as politicians arrive by steamship from the Maritimes and the Provinces of Upper and Lower Canada for meetings that will lead to Confederation. But the twins are most excited about their favourite horse, who is about to give birth to her first foal.
