Reader as Detective

Please respond to one of the following questions in your comment. Read the question carefully and respond in complete sentences with correct punctuation and capitalization. Be sure that you use examples to show evidence!

• If you read "The Purloined Letter," do you have any ideas about where the letter was hidden? Could the police have missed it, or might it be hidden somewhere else entirely?  Give evidence  from the story section to support your answer.
