"Theodore Sinclair Treharne, Ted. The man you are seeking," Griff said to Caydance, "was or is probably Welch, or, given the middle name 'Sinclair', Scottish-Welch or Normandy-Scottish-Welch. But MacGillivray must know something more than just that name."

“Ted, Kendrick told us, sometimes mentioned the bus trip over the then relatively new Bay Bridge. So, he probably lived in San Francisco.
