[QUOTE="Andrew D. Gable, post: 1495960, member: 4144"] [b]Sunday, 23 April, 1893[/b] Andrew Miller, Anglican pastor of St. Nicholas’ church in the Essex town of Loughton, received a visit from one Arthur Pellgraine, a parishioner at his church, after the Sunday service. Pellgraine looked quite agitated, though whether for good or ill Pastor Miller could not say. Pellgraine was a slight young man, with brownish-blond hair and small wire-rimmed spectacles. "There is a matter at my home which may require some looking into. As a faithful and God-fearing man, I believe that the power of the Anglican Church may be needed. Pastor, as a man I can trust, I ask you if you will please meet me at my home at 7 o’clock this evening." ***** [b]Friday, 21 April, 1893[/b] Aiolos Shaw checks his post one morning and finds he has received a letter from Arthur Pellgraine. After a moment, he has jogged his memory and recalled Pellgraine as a young, rather bookish man he met one day a few months before in the Reading Room at the British Museum. Pellgraine had taken an interest in some of Aiolos’ researches, and engaged him in conversation. In the letter, he asked Mr. Shaw to meet him Sunday evening at 7 o’clock at his home, Pellgraine Hall, in the town of Loughton, about forty-five minutes’ train ride to the northeast of London. ***** [b]Friday, 21 April, 1893[/b] Trevor MacAllistair, the Baron Walsingham, looked through the mail his housekeeper brought in on this morning and found a letter from Arthur Pellgraine, who was a distant cousin of his. Andrea Pellgraine, the grandmother of Arthur, was sister to Trevor’s grandmother Sarah. In the letter, Arthur asks him to meet him at his estate in Loughton at 7 o’clock Sunday evening. ***** [b]Sunday, 23 April, 1893[/b] After returning home from church on Sunday morning, Inspector Jamison O. Diggory had a visitor. The youngish, dark-haired man introduced himself as Frater DEDI. After he is shown in and seats himself, he speaks further. "My name is not important. What is important is the interests I represent. I, sir, am a member of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, and come to you with a problem and a proposition.
