Sir Fortuna - Misty Views

Only the oldest sailors remember the 3rd of September, 1837.

The day the mist rose.

2nd September 1998

It was a cold morning. Almost no gulls were seen at the port, and not many men thought of fishing that day. The only one on the water was John Ballington III, a jolly young fellow who was never seen not boating, or fishing, or doing something on the ocean. Once he was on the water, he moved a long way northwest and settled by a deep area. Turning off his motor and taking out his newest pole, a feeling of something o…w…i…g…t…h…o…v….e…..h……t……o…….h……d…….r…..t……n.

The funeral for John Ballington was held that evening.
