Grant was in bed one night when a voice in his mind reminded him that Thomas Moore lived only six years of his life in the York dynasty and the rest of his life in the Lancaster dynasty. The problem with this is that Richard III was from the house of York and was the last of that house until the Lancastrians won the battle of Bosworth. Thomas Moore had written of Richard as if he knew for a fact everything that he wrote, while he was only writing from hear-say. This infuriated Grant and he threw Thomas Moore's book on the ground until he realized that he was borrowing it.
The next day Marta came to visit Grant. As they were talking she remembered something about a woolly lamb and said goodbye to Grant and left, telling him she had a surprise for him.
Later that afternoon a young man came in with a head of thick curly hair, an overcoat that was much too big, long legs and a pair of glasses. He reminded Grant of a lamb and the glasses seemed to add to the affect instead of taking away from it. Grant told him to sit down and the man, Marta's woolly lamb, and Grant started talking. The man told Grant that he was working at the library and that there he was studying Richard II. Grant asked him if he knew anything about Richard III, but all he knew was that two men, nicknamed the Cat and the Rat had killed Richard's nephews under Richard's direction. He did know of a book though that had more about Richard III and he said he could get it for Grant.
