It seems that the night watchman had come from the blackness of the sixth-floor book stacks as the first glimmer of dawn pierced the tall windows of the Economics Division. [...] He loped down the hallway, through the iron gates, and leaped down a flight of stairs to the driveway of the inner courtyard and into the watchman's booth at the 40th Street entrance. [...] The intruder had intended to disconnect the alarm system by drilling into the wall behind the panels, taking away the backing to the cabinets and drawing them back into the privacy of the Comptroller's Office. [...] I looked over the balustrade at the area below and stared out the great windows down 41st Street as the guard had done on the night of the attempted theft. [...] The room was almost out of sight, behind the stamp cases and the metal paneling of the Personnel Offices filling the back part of the first floor.
