Day 4086
Day 4086 in Seahaven Springs, under cloudy skies. A pair of swans has taken up residence on Miller's Pond, and half the town has been down to look at them and pretend they had other business. Dot Ferris has got to the bottom of it. The bottom was not far down. The morning mail has arrived. Abel Callahan received a mysterious postcard. Nothing bad ever happens here — but something is always going on. A Quiet Week for the Sheriff takes a turn. Goodnight, Truman. In case we don't see you: good afternoon, good evening, and goodnight.
