The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Red Seal by Natalie Sumner Lincoln: "Wait, though, I must find if Philip left the key of the compartment
on his bunch." He took from his pocket the keys he had found so
useful the night before, and selected one that resembled the key to
his own compartment, and inserted it in the lock. To his surprise
he discovered the compartment was already unlocked. Without comment
he pulled open the inside drawer and started to lay the white
envelope on top of the papers already there, when he hesitated.
"The envelope is unaddressed, Helen," he remarked, extending it
toward her. She waved it back.
"It is sealed with red wax," she stated. "That is all that is
necessary for identification."
