The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Case of the Registered Letter by Grace Isabel Colbron and Augusta Groner: will help you if it is in my power.
After leaving the prison, Muller took the train for the village of
Grunau, about half an hour distant from the city. He found his way
easily to Graumann's home, an attractive old house set in a large
garden amid groups of beautiful old trees. When he sent up his card
to Miss Graumann, the old lady tripped down stairs in a flutter of
excitement.
"Did you see him?" she asked. "You have been to the prison? What
do you think? How does he seem?"
"He seems calm to-day," replied Muller, "although the confinement
and the anxiety are evidently wearing on him."
