We return to Southern Maine for another story about a group of people who are staying at an inn.

A man, Professor George Weymouth, is walking along a rocky beach near the inn and finds an Indian arrowhead.

He shows it to Colonel Pingree, another guest at the inn, and learns that in 1605 a man with the same name as him, probably an ancestor, captured and killed five Indians in the same area as he explored the coast of Maine.

This sets in motion a series of events that will bring a great deal of distress to those staying at the inn.
