Visit us online at www.1stWorldLibrary.ORG - - On a certain brilliant Spring morning in London’s City the seed of the Story was lightly sown. Within the directors’ room of the Aasvogel Syndicate, Manchester House, New Broad Street, was done and hidden away a deed, simple and commonplace, which in due season was fated to yield a weighty crop of consequences complex and extraordinary. At the table, pen in hand, sat a young man, slight of build, but of fresh complexion, and attractive, eager countenance, neither definitely fair nor definitely dark. He was silently reading over a document engrossed on bluish hand-made folio; not a lengthy document - nineteen lines, to be precise. And he was reading very slowly and carefully, chiefly to oblige the man standing behind his chair.
