In today’s snippet, Rand Hart gets a mysterious envelope:
Hart was roused from sleep by someone knocking on his cabin door. He got out of bed, went to the door, and called out, “Yes? What is it?”
“A message for you, sir.”
Hart slipped on his robe over the pajamas and opened the door. The steward handed him an envelope.
“Just a minute.” Hart rummaged through a drawer and gave the man a dollar.
“Thank you, sir.”
“You’re welcome.” Hart closed the door, sat on his bed, and opened the envelope.
