* Among the papers Menelduliniel read were the following:

* Ledgers having to do with accounting, purchases, pay for salaried castle servants and travelling providers of goods and services who supplied the needs of the castle.

* Records of family trees - genealogies for Maladil and Adela tracing back to the Houses of Fëanor and of Haleth respectively.

* Letters from friends, kin, allies at arms regarding visits and stays at the castle past, present, and intended. Some of the visits mentioned in the letters never came to pass, for the curse intervened.

* A letter from the Second Age penned by Elrond of Imladris warning of bands of retreating Orcs moving Southwards and attacking even as they fled.

* A note hinting at the location of the Deed to Laurëondo, and instructions for best getting at the deed without inadvertantly damaging the document or setting off a trap. The note read in part, "Within the green leather-bound book with gilt letters, locked, folded up, inside the back cover beneath an extra layer of green leather lies hid the deed.

"Careful not to rend the book
nor open without turning the key,
for who without permission look,
will end ungracefully."
