The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Brother of Daphne by Dornford Yates: "We'll write him a note," said I. "Wait a minute."
With difficulty I scrawled a few words. Then:
"How will this do?" Falcon, I have been found and taken to
shelter. If possible, bring the car to 'The Three Bulls,'
Steeple Abbas, by noon tomorrow. Will you sign it?"
I put the pencil into her hand and held the lamp for her to see.
She wrote quickly. When she had finished, I laid the tablets on
the seat, where they must be seen at once. When I looked at her
again, I saw she was smiling.
"So there's something in the nickname, after all?"
"What nickname?" said I. "Red Nat?"
