OOC,[ooc]I think that everyone has done their search of the library now.
If you confirm your next move IC, I'll move things along.
I'll also update the handouts thread tonight to include the information that you uncovered at the library.[/ooc]

Dr. Sánchez delivers the books and papers back to the librarian.

"Fair enough. You know more about that kind of thing than me. If Adams doesn't play ball we can look at our options then."Silver Priest wrote:"Might be a possibility, though I'm hesitant to pump my contact without giving anything in return. Don't want to burn him. If we go that route, we might want to consider forming a connection between Larkin and this Adams, imply he's part of a larger criminal conspiracy.
I know a guy in Madden's outfit, as it happens. Might be able to call in a favor. But unless we have something to offer him or his boss I'm not sure they'd be interested."
Cynthia is happy to press on. If need be she'll facilitate an interview with Adams via the university, under the guise of a psychology research project.

Re: [IC]Chapter 1 - A Message from a Dear Friend.
After the morning at the library and some last-minute preparations, the investigators board an early afternoon train on the Hudson branch of the New York Central railroad from Grand Central station. The journey thirty miles along the east bank of the Hudson River is picturesque, although as most of Westchester County is buried under snow and the river is frozen along its banks for most of the journey, there is little doubt that the railway was the best choice for the afternoon trip north.
Scarborough Station, Westchester County
2:30pm - Wednesday 14th January, 1925
Amy, Sánchez and Anderson leave the train first at Scarborough station, which is a desolate, but beautiful location at this time of year. Located right on the bank of the Hudson, with wooded hills to the south and the ominous silhouette of Sing Sing visible a mile or so to the north, beyond the small village of Scarborough-on-Hudson itself. There is no cab waiting outside the tiny station, but a small hotel stands directly across the snow-covered road from the station building.
Ossining Station, outside Sing Sing
2:40pm - Wednesday 14th January, 1925
Atauchi, Cynthia and Marcus remain on the train until the next station, passing slowly though the bleak yards of Sing Sing prison itself before stepping off at Ossining station, only a hundred yards from the prison gates. Rifle armed guards watch them casually from a nearby watchtower as they step out onto the street.

"We can stop at the hotel and ask for directions," suggests Amy. "Maybe we can also telephone for a cab there."

Marcus smirks. "Always had a feeling I'd end up in prison. Good to know it will just be for a visit, though."
"Think you can get us in, Cynthia?"

Re: [IC]Chapter 1 - A Message from a Dear Friend.
Cynthia flourishes the paperwork she has gotten from the university.
"All here in black and white pal."
She approaches the prison checkpoint and smiles at the guard as she places the documentation on the counter.
"Hi. We're from Columbia University - got an appointment."
Re: [IC]Chapter 1 - A Message from a Dear Friend.
"Any idea of what we may ask? We must be very tactful to not be throw away" - says Anderson
Re: [IC]Chapter 1 - A Message from a Dear Friend.
"All we need to do is ask politely how to get to Carlyle House," says Amy. "It's really not that hard, and they're not going to throw us out if we ask. I've never been thrown out of anywhere in my life."

Atauchi remained stoic despite Marcus' attempt at humor. The survivalist took in the bleak surroundings for several moments before he drew the fur collar on his coat upward and moved ahead at Cynthia's rear, shaded slightly to the right. He looked upon the security guard with an icy stare as the man examined the paperwork his companion had handed over.
