    I looked at the list of the passengers’ names – there was one name on
    the list that I knew – Cornelius Wyatt. So I went to the shipping
    office and I looked at the list. Cornelius was an artist. He painted
    pictures. I heard from friend that he had married a beautiful and
    charming young woman. I wanted to meet Mrs Wyatt. I had never
    seen her.I was very glad to see Cornelius, bu he didn’t. He didn’t
    want to speak to me and he locked at his room.Cornelius arrived to
    ship with his wife and sister, but he also booked a third room, where
    he put some oblong box.What is in this strange oblong box? Why
    Cornelius behaves so bad?
