When we are introduced to Peyton Farquhar, he is in the last few minutes of his life as he waits for the support to be kicked out from under his feet so that the hanging can take place. The foreshadowing occurs when Farquhar imagines freeing himself from he rope, falling into the river, and making his way home.
