Emmanuel Ackerman and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at https://www.pgdp.net (This file was produced from images generously made available by The Internet Archive) "From the Four Winds" by John Sinjohn is a collection of stories written in the late 19th century. The opening tale introduces a group of characters gathered on a tropical verandah, where they share their experiences and observations, particularly focused on a man named Synge who is departing from their company. Themes of isolation, friendship, and an underlying sense of foreboding begin to emerge, hinting at deeper personal and social narratives. At the start of "The Running Amok of Synge Sahib," the atmosphere is one of camaraderie mixed with an unsettling undertone. The characters engage in lively banter about their surroundings, expressing both fondness and envy for the island life. However, as the night progresses, an anxious tension becomes apparent, particularly through the interactions between Hay, Synge, and Mrs. Hay. When Hay shares a disturbing story from his time in the Fijis, focusing on Synge's untold struggles with isolation and a violent episode involving a kriss, the mood shifts dramatically. This tale sets the stage for a profound exploration of madness, the impact of loneliness, and perhaps foreshadows impending tragedy. The character dynamics are revealed through their dialogues, underscoring the themes of friendship and the complexities of human experience in remote settings.
