Edward goes to the NGS museum and library in Providence and asks the girl working there "Excuse me, miss, but I was looking for a book 'The Tale of Augustus Blackmont'. Could you point me to it, please?"
The girl smiles back "Of course, please follow me." She walks over to the bookshelf and carefully takes out a book with many rips and tears. "Is this the one you're asking for?"
"Yes, it is." He replied, his face lighting up upon seeing the book surviving all these years in such a great condition. He takes it carefully from her hands and wraps it in cloth, gently putting it in his bag. "I wish to bring it back home and study it. Could I have it for a couple of saints days? I promise Ill bring it back in one piece!"
With the same wide smile she replies "No worries, as long as you bring it back in the same shape as you received it. If you ever need assistance with anything else, please don't be shy from asking me. I'm always around."
He dipped his head "Thank you miss." He signs the lorraine at the woman and walks out the door, heading straight home.
