“Hey, can you guys help me?”
Jamie and Kendall looked up from their homework at the boy that their mom had let into the house.
“Do we know you?” Jamie asked him.
The boy looked embarrassed to be there. “I’m Steve Richards. My little sister is Sara Richards. She says you guys are good detectives. She told me you run a detective agency for kids.”
“Oh, yeah,” Kendall answered. “I knew you looked familiar.”
“So what’s up?” Jamie asked as she motioned toward a nearby chair. Steve took a seat before he began.
“Well, we’re kind of new in the neighborhood,” Steve started. “We don’t really know everyone yet, including Peter Markham.”
“Oh no!” Jamie exclaimed. “What has Peter done now?”
“He sold me this,” Steve said, holding up a piece of paper. “He said it was an authentic document from history. It’s supposed to be written by one of the pilgrims. I checked and the spelling looks right. The signatures do too. Peter even showed me a picture of the Mayflower Compact in a book and I compared the signatures and words to it.”
Is the paper what Peter says it is?
