“I begin to think so.”
“Can you determine any of the other letters?”
“Only three capitals,” said Nick, still scrutinizing the blurred marks with his lens. “There appears to be two quite long words preceding the word ‘college’.”
“That immediately preceding it begins with ‘M.’ It may be medical.” Chick quickly suggested.
“I am quite sure of that.”
“What are the others?”
“There seems to be two words preceding that, or one very long one,” said Nick. “They are so blurred that I cannot read them. The first capital in the address, however, is a ‘D.’”
“It evidently is the name of a medical college.”
“I think so.”
