My words.

He had come upon one code that had a distinctly recognizable pattern-hieroglyphics to the untrained eye, but a lingual map to his. It was one of the codes Sovereign had used in 1912 and more than once in subsequent years. Montague opened his notebook to the More Page More Page Elaine Alden page on which he had copied patricide

ten-digit waybill and studied the numbers once more: one of the simplest codes he had ever tackled and a very old one-vintage early 1900s, he knew. Underneath the ten numbers, he wrote ten letters, then went to work on More Page More Page Elaine Alden the words nails, screws and bolts. It was a slightly different code kevin youkilis

still primitive by World War II standards. He quickly translated them, leaned back, and whistled. Under the ten numbers, he had written the words via Titanic. Under nails, screws and bolts, he had written 34 More Page More Page Elaine Alden crates bullion. Cargo hold 3. He was excited and not a little self-satisfied. Only someone with a memory like franchesca alcanter

Montagues would have attached any suspicion to the name Sovereign Metals, Ltd. That J. Smyth had rung a bell, too; it was a frequent pseudonym Sovereign used More Page More Page Elaine Alden for its addressees-another thing he had been told to watch for. He also was puzzled, however. The first two words of the manifest code-via Titanic-seemed john dory

mere excess verbiage and totally illogical to Montagues very logical mind. Whoever J. Smyth was, Sovereign must have informed him in More Page More Page Elaine Alden advance that a gold shipment was en route aboard the Titanic-probably by a cable message using the same code, he reasoned. So why repeat the vessel of shipment in the john dory

manifest: Was via Titanic another code in itself? The solution came to him even as he More Page More Page Elaine Alden pondered whether to try another decipher for those two words. It was common practice then for shipping companies to send copies of cargo manifests to other ships that might arrive before or after the vessel carrying franchesca alcanter

cargo-a precautionary measure in case the latter failed to More Page More Page Elaine Alden reach its destination. He knew that a copy of Titanics manifest had, indeed, been sent to New York on another liner-no less than the Mauretania, at the time the fastest passenger ship on the North Atlantic. If the Mauretania had reached New franchesca alcanter

before the Titanics More Page More Page Elaine Alden scheduled arrival, the waybill code made sense. It informed the recipients how the bullion was being shipped, without resorting to a cable that could have been intercepted by the government. Now, Montague thought excitedly, all he had to do was find out when the Mauretania had More Page More Page Elaine Alden docked in New York, grade gov

or after the Titanic sailed. ... The next day found him in the historical records room of the Cunard Line, examining the Mauretania file. The search was simple, relatively quick, and definitely rewarding. Every trip that Mauretania had made, from her maiden More Page More Page Elaine Alden voyage in 1907 to her withdrawal from service one month mothers day flowers

of twenty-seven years later, was recorded-including her departure for New York on April 4, 1912, six days before the Titanic sailed. Derek Montague returned triumphantly to his flat an hour later and made two phone calls. More Page More Page Elaine Alden Neither number he dialed was the one listed for Groton, Peter.

himself a fourth snifter of brandy and smiled wryly. In all the years he had known Englands most famous oceanographer, only once had he ever seen him take more than More Page More Page Elaine Alden one drink during a twenty-four hour period. That happened to have been the day Van Buren received a final divorce decree ending franchesca alcanter
