Key 19 Lost


Louise figured out the 'British Library Legend 19' quite simple really, well for a native English speaking person I suppose.  Lots of words in the English lexicon have various different meanings suffice to say that 'Legend' is also used in graphs to define the 'Key' of the labels on a graph.  Basically that turns the clue into 'British Library Key 19' as in locker key 19 (BL), a quick visit to the solicitor turned up a bunch of keys which the solicitor did not think was important.

I asked Bob to come with me but he said he had a research paper to finish that he had promised to be done by the end of the week, so Louise came instead.

Unfortunately we were delayed by some twonk on the railway line at least that is what Louise managed to get out of the train guard when we finally arrived at Victoria station.  I splashed out on a Taxi instead of going via the Tube just as well since according to the Taxi driver someone had tripped a fire alarm 'by accident' at Euston Road station.  Arriving at the Library showed a plethora of police cars and fire engines, Louise wandered up to the taped off area with a smile whilst I found a bored looking fireman having a fag.

Louise's and my information tallied to show that someone had started a fire in the cloakroom, if anything had survived it would now be part of police evidence meaning that it is completely lost to us for the time being.  I am finding it hard to believe that any of this is a coincidence, only four people knew about locker 19.  Bob, Louise, myself and Bill which leads me to a couple of possiblities Galesh's bugs worked really well or the information was extracted quite recently from Bill himself which means he is still alive although the timing is somewhat suspect.  There is of course one other possibility which I cannot even consider at this point, just does not bear thinking about.

Every time I get close to some tangible evidence it is whipped away from me at the last minute, it is becoming very frustrating indeed.  At least Foilhead's Norway source has solved the second zone in the Janus Archive one step closer to discovering the truth behind the archive (annoying when they cannot spell Caesar though), whilst I think the information supplied in the zip file is probably immaterial the keys are used elsewhere which is what the lady from Norway said.  

The online community have gone oddly quiet but I cannot worry about that as well I am sure they can look after themselves.  If they want to impart information I am sure they will at the appropriate juncture.
