Hiram stopped digging for a moment in order to wipe the sweat from his face. He thought he should have been spending more time with the Athabasca, but now that his theory had been proven true, the excitement of the find was waning. It was now a job for cataloguers and restoration experts. And worst of all, he couldn't tell anyone of this discovery! But he had given his word to the residents of New Canaan, and he intended to keep it.

The professor's digging followed the precise lines of his training, as though it was an official archaeological project. "Anything worth doing, is worth doing well", he said to himself as he dug. At last the job was done, and he pulled himself up out of the excavation area and sat down to rest and drink some water from his canteen. "Let's see", he thought to himself outloud, "what might I have missed that could be of immediate use?" He ran through a list of things in his mind while he waited for Flash and company.
