A FEW CICADAS speak from the trees behind the house. The crickets chirp cozily in the grass. Little John is awake and playing with his fingers. Charlotte stands her daily vigil on the shore.

“A sail!” Charlotte cries. “I see a sail! ’Tis Blake, I’ll be bound!”

It isn’t. An American privateer approaches flying the colours. “God help us, she’ll soon be upon us.”

She grabs the children, starts up the bank, telling them softly, “We shall fly to the woods until someone comes to help us.”

The ship slackens sail. Now two boats depart the shore and row out toward her. One of those rowing is John Murdoch.
