Summary

How the body of a drowned boy was found.

A boat overturned on the way from Portree to Raasay. A man on board was saved, but a boy was lost. His mother heard his voice in her sleep, saying his body would be found near a certain island at midnight. Four neighbours went out and found him, just as he had said.
