Dear Mayor Cole,

I have discovered a document that was in the closet. It contains instructions for something. I believe it is important because it is written in very old printing. Unfortunately, it got chewed up by my sister, so it is not all there. But you can still read some bits of it, such as: marked with E find door of bo small steel pan. I will show you this document if you want to see it.

Sincerely yours,

Lina Mayfleet, Messenger
