In the story what one is ...UNCOVERING THE MYSTERY.<br /><br />In the story what one is curious to know is about the mystery enveloping the cover or covering the envelope.<br /><br />Where did it begin?<br /><br />Yes, we know that in Nairobi Maj. Gen. Jackson, Col. Sam and Lt. Gombu prepared a list (in duplicate) and distributed it to two. We are not aware of the contents of that list. Nor we know who the two are. Who is the other?(12320)<br /><br />Gombu takes out a sealed envelope from an Iron locker and hands it over to SS for safe keeping. Question: Is Gombu one of the two above? (12302) (But once it is in his hands he is being followed by various different persons from whom he escapes.)<br /><br />Gombu had made out a list (written in short hand and kept it in a sealed cover.) Question: Is it a copy of the original list which he has made out? (12305)<br /><br />SS receives a message from US Government to handover the envelope to a person in DCC. (Sunday special 13.5.18)<br /><br />Cover opened in DCC is cryptic. (not in shorthand), Is this the envelope prepared in Nairobi?? (12321) <br /><br />A team of seven is formed to be given secret missions. Uncle Sam is one of the seven. Question: Is Kayal another member in<br />this team of seven? It seems so. (12330) <br /><br />Uncle Sam does not wish to be seen along with Kayal. Why? (12331)<br /><br />An Earl and an Emir arrive in Shangri-la to get the cover from SS (12340) He gives it to them with a promise of being paid for the same. (12341)<br /><br />Uncle Sam (Lt. Gen. Samuel) is instructed to watch them. (12342) Question: Is Lt. Gen. Samuel aka Sam the same Col. Sam seen years back in Nairobi? (12342)<br /><br />The cover taken by the two. Question: Is it one of the original two? SS had already handed over one cover in DCC. Question: From where did the present envelope surface?? (12343)<br /><br />There is a mention in Kremlin about one Smith. Question: Is it SS? (12312)<br /><br />Thus we have many nagging questions in our minds. We not only have a lot more to see but lot more to learn about too.<br />Let us wait with bated breath!!<br /><br />Have a nice weekend.C.G.

Na? after getting this ? Truly worldwide style , introducing words from other places ! One can never find such clues in the English papers crosswords !<br /><br />17 down: GHETTOES-- if one pussyfooted to look for slippers used in the living rooms, one will certainly trip and fall ! Wonder full word play. ANON's deltion and addition clues are not annoying as they involve only a single letter replacement.<br /><br />DART PLAYER : Very unusual game found in bars. I remembered that in one of Mombasa's Club where inebriated players used to hit the bull's eye ! How could they, having got cock-eyed after several whiskies ! I always wondered . Using one eye, that too, the other being aquinted to aim !<br /><br />raju umamaheswarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07107883886526369417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2195377761774996603.post-58430626296893274652018-06-30T10:18:05.048+05:302018-06-30T10:18:05.048+05:30Thank you Col.
