"As a boat was being loaded with passengers at eleven o'clock, an elderly man arrived at the shore and urgently signaled to his son to come away with him. The young man protested: he was fasting; he was intent on making the pilgrimage. But the father insisted strongly that he had an extremely alarming dream and that his son would have to postpone the pilgrimage, at least for a day. Both left together."
