Summary

An omen seen in a boat.

At the time of the First World War, Ruairidh Robertson bought a boat. Unknown to him, it was sold because a light was seen in it. Ruairidh's aunt and her husband also saw the light. This was in the summer, and in the autumn a Berneray woman died in Glasgow. It was Ruairidh's boat that brought the body from Uist. He moored just where his aunt had seen the light. It was never seen again
