| 520 | _a"The Wizard of West Penwith: A Tale of the Land's-End" by William Bentinck Forfar is a novel written in the late 19th century. Set in the beautiful and rugged landscape of Cornwall, the story explores themes of mystery, superstition, and local lore. Central to the narrative is Mr. Freeman, a somewhat enigmatic character described as a conjurer, who evokes both intrigue and fear among the local community. At the start of the story, we are introduced to a group of Cornish villagers gathered in an inn on New Year's Eve, exchanging tales of horror and enjoying the warmth of their fire amidst a fierce winter storm. The opening establishes the rich atmosphere of the setting, as well as the close-knit nature of the community, emphasizing their superstitions. Mr. Freeman, who appears withdrawn yet knowledgeable, captivates the patrons by sharing a tale of his encounters with the supernatural, particularly relating to the ruins of an ancient chapel. As the story unfolds, hints of a nearby shipwreck and the mysterious happenings surrounding Freeman and his family begin to weave a complex tapestry of intrigue, indicating the adventures and challenges that lie ahead for the characters.
