The book, Professor Somebody's Anatomy, was Mr. Dobbins's. Finding herself alone, Becky opens the drawer to his desk and opens the book. Inside, she sees an engraved frontispiece of a naked human figure. At that moment, Tom comes in and startles Becky, who accidentally tears the picture down the middle.
