Day 1893
Day 1893 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. Toby Tanner has been released from the Sheriff's office with a stern word and a handshake. Bea Callahan and Linus Tidewater have stopped leaving their friendship to chance. Wilf Tanner is in a staring contest with a gull on the dock. The gull is winning. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. The Bench at The Square runs into trouble. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
