The only visitor that day had been an old woman from some hamlet along the shore, who had journeyed thither to burn incense and to beseech good-natured Ben-ten to bring back her son who had been too long away on a fishing excursion. The place was indeed too lovely for any thing but peace and happiness. Yet inexorable fate had marked it for the scene of a tragedy to be speedily enacted thereon.
