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: which she had entered was closed, as were also the private door
leading directly into the outside corridor, and the one opening into
the closet. Convinced that they were really alone, she took from
her leather hand-bag a white envelope and handed it to Kent.
"Please put this in Philip's compartment," she said, and as he
hesitated, she added pleadingly, "Please do it, Harry, and ask no
questions."
Kent looked at her wonderingly; the girl was obviously laboring
under intense excitement of some sort, which might at any moment
break into hysteria. Bottling up his curiosity, he stooped down
in front of the safe.
