RANK ON COMPLETION: CORNER CHECKER WEEK 16

CHIEF T. SQUARE: "Chief T. Square: A square is a claim with four proofs. Check all four or you have bought a rhombus."
THE PARK REGISTER // EPISODE 4 // THE FALSE SQUARE
Register four. The picnic yard fence bid calls the yard a perfect square and prices it by the side. The yard has never once been square.
PREVIOUSLY The Shrunken Acre rebuilt a quarter acre from slivers, and one deed carried a countersignature: Mr. Gray.
THE CASE Fence contractor Greta Lind bids every yard as a square on its longest side, and the difference between her square and the true shape is her margin.
Filed by the quartermaster, Pippa George.
Crew name: Class key:
The run will not start without a name. Ten markers, three hint tiers each. Written work handed in class is the gate: no paper, no credit.
