Abstract/Description	Campbell Howard Index: Synopsis Lily and May return home from shopping at dusk to find Jim out. Lily has a premonition of death or danger having caught sight in town during the afternoon of Bert Coglan, whose unwelcome attentions had been tormenting her for four years. After an earlier thrashing from Jim, Bert swore to kill Lily. Lily is in the grip of fear and expresses her conviction that Death is abroad. In her over-emotional state she collapses and dies when the wind hurls the door open. Jim returns to announce that he had been following tracks which led him to Bert's overturned buggy.
