On the train to Bletchley, Ena told Mr Silcott everything that had happened on the day her work was stolen.
âSome parts of the X-board would have been almost impossible to copy for anyone who didnât know what they were doing. I can only think whoever stole it had worked on the same, or similar boards before â perhaps in another factory. But what really bothers me, what I still donât understand,â she confided, âis how the thieves were able to make an identical case to the ones we use. Well, perhaps it wasnât identical, but it was good enough to pass as one of ours when it was signed in at Bletchley Park.â
âThey must have been watching you, Ena, sizing the case up.â
âWhat, travelling on the same train as I did? On the occasions we didnât take the work down by car? A bit of a coincidence, donât you think?â Mr Silcott nodded thoughtfully. âNo,â Ena said, âIâm convinced someone at Bletchley Park was in on it.â
âThe Commander mentioned something about that,â Herbert Silcott said.
Ena bit her lip. âHe wasnât very happy at the suggestion. Did he tell you I had met an American in the buffet on Euston station?â Mr Silcott nodded and smiled. âHe was very kind to me. Of course, the Commander could only see a German spy who befriended me to turn me. Thatâs the phrase they use in popular spy thrillers, isnât it?â
Ena sighed. âHe invited me to tea today,â she said, âwhen I finish at the Park. And no, before you ask, he doesnât know I have anything to do with Bletchley Park. I stuck to the cover story. Anyway it doesnât matter now. I wrote yesterday and said I couldnât make it.â
âThatâs a shame, Ena,â Mr Silcott said. âYou spend so much time at work, and often on your own, being taken out for tea by a young man would be a nice treat. Still,â he said, âif heâs a decent sort, heâll invite you out again.â
Ena hoped he would. She also told Mr Silcott about Henry Green being in the room with Commander Dalton and the engineers, and how he had vouched for her to the commander. Mr Silcott knew Henry, as Enaâs family did. Henryâs father was the only butcher in Lowarth and he and Herbert Silcott regularly played golf together.
