About this ebook
'The Golden Fleece' is a short story written by an English journalist and novelist named Albert Kinross. It is about a man named Capel, who came on board the "Golden Fleece" at Athens. It is an old and comfortable five-thousand-tonner, once a mail-boat, but now the property of a London syndicate, which fills it at advertised intervals with thoughtful tourists; sending them down the Mediterranean in winter, and across the North Sea, or up the Baltic, in summer. Capel had chosen this leisurely way for his homecoming. The "cruise" would break his slow return to England, giving him an added week, a larger space for meditation; and he had time enough. Five years—a few days more would make no difference after five years! As he sat on deck, late in the afternoon, he took her letter from his case—he had done the same thing half an hour ago.
