Croydon Glenister
Having his breakfest and reading the times in his sister's and her husbands kitchen. Croyden's eye catches a story.
The names of the kidnapped people jump out to Croydon as they were known assocates of his friend Jackson Elias.
Croydon puts down the paper, almost as if in a trance.
Kidnapped? he thinks.
Whatever for?
He retrieves the scissors his sister keeps in the desk, cuts out the brief article, and folds it twice. After putting the scissors back, Croydon stashes the clipping in his pocket. He dons his coat as he slips out the front door. Hailing a taxi, he heads to the Continental Hotel.
Not much to go on, Croydon thinks ruefully as he re-reads the news brief over and over. He has not personally met Mrs. LeGou and Mr. Whitford, but they are friends of Jackson. Perhaps Croydon can help. It beats filling orders in the grocery shop, anyway.
Arriving at the hotel, Croydon pays his cab fare and enters the building. He walks up to the front desk and speaks to the clerk on duty. "Excuse me, where might I find the traveling companions of Mrs. LeGou and Mr. Whitford?"
[OOC: I was on vacation, and my wife's Blackberry could not handle the internet very well. (My "butter fingers" probably did not help!) Sorry for the delay, but I do not have any more internet-free vacations planned!]
