Sackler and DeLeo were packing up, off to follow a lead on the whereabouts of a forger of Social Security checks who had been working overtime in recent months.
These sources quoted in Hippolytus have lately met with very unfavourable criticisms. The opinion has been advanced that Hippolytus has here fallen a victim to the mystification of a forger.
The object which the forger had in view is clearly stated in his preface; the reform of the canon law, or rather its better application.
Always a problem but much more seriously in recent years the most serious enemy of the genuine autograph collector has emerged; the forger!
But the story is quite likely to ignore how the forger got his power and where it springs from.
