"Newspaper advertisements, aren't they?" "Yes, out of the Morning Post, all on the front page. If you will wait a minute I will put them all in order the date of each is written on the back and then you will see if things strike you in the way they have struck me." These were the cuttings: "R.P, bjptnbblx. wamii. xvzzjv. okk. zxxp. "Rlxt. ex. lnvrb. 4. zcokk. zbpl. qc. Ptfrd. Avnsp. Hvfbl.
I called 'l' 'a'; 'n' 'b'; 'p' 'c'; and so on, and made out bjptnbblx, the first word in the first cypher, to be the word 'improving, and the two letters before it in capitals 'R.P. to be really 'D.C. The next cypher word, wamii, stumped me, as the code didn't make it sense; then it occurred to me to start the alphabet with 'm' instead of 'l, skipping every alternate letter as before, and I made out wamii to mean 'shall. The next cypher word, xvzzjv, I couldn't get sense out of by starting the alphabet with either 'l' or 'm, so I tried the next letter, 'n, skipping alternate letters once more, and that gave me the word 'settle. I knew then that I had got the key, and I soon had the whole sentence.
