Mr Coombe, the estate agent at Whitecliff, was very reluctant to let Gull Cottage to the gentle, charming, newly-widowed Mrs. Muir. After her husband's death, little Lucy Muir ("small, blue-eyed and frail-looking", and married at eighteen straight from her father's vicarage) decided that she wanted to break away from her husband's strong-minded family and rent a little house by the sea. So she booked a ticket to Whitecliff.
Now Mr. Coombe had several houses on his books, and Gull Cottage was a most desirable residence, only £52 a year furnished. That was a remarkably low rent, and Lucy began to suspect that there was something wrong with Gull Cottage. Mr. Coombe obviously knew there was, and did everything he could to dissuade her from seeing it. But Lucy was firm, and when she saw it she fell hopelessly in love with it. She was particularly interested by the portrait over the sitting-room fireplace; the portrait of the late-owner of the house Captain Daniel Gregg, R.N. "The eyes are curiously alive" she said to Mr. Coombe. "I almost fancied one of them winked". And before they left the house Lucy was certain that she heard a low, sardonic chuckle. But having set her mind on renting this house Lucy would not be put off. Stephen Williams
