perfectly blank.
The lads gazed earnestly at the mass of figures for some time, trying to

That a hidden meaning of some kind was attached to it was almost

meaning to be hidden, he would certainly have used words in preference
to a number of mystifying figures.

convinced it is--the more certain do I feel that it is the key to
something important or of value. Now, friend, do you notice anything
peculiar about these figures?"

arranged in groups of four."
