My Mystery Friday night at seven o’clock the captain’s daughter was missing. Little did he know, a tall man had his daughter. The tall man used a telephone booth to call the captain. “For me to give you your daughter back, you must give me a million dollars.” The tall man said. So the captain asked, “What do you need a million dollars for?” “Well, I’m leaving on a trip to Hawaii and I need the money to pay rent.” But, the captain only agreed to give the man nine-hundred dollars. So, the tall man said, “Sounds fair enough to me.” The next day the tall man gave the captains daughter back and took his nine-hundred dollars. The day after that the tall man went on his trip. Also the captain took his daughter on a cruise on his ship he named “The titanic 2”.
My Mystery This Friday night at seven o’clock I am coming to get it. What are you going to get? You will get your sweetheart back if I get my million dollars. If I don’t get my million dollars then I give her to the captain of the glue ship. The captain of the glue will take her to glue island and give her to a tall man who is a tribe leader. The only way you can talk to her is by calling from the telephone booth.
My Mystery June 28, 1987 On Friday night at seven o’ clock I was standing around, waiting to get my ticket for the boat. But then I saw a tall man standing in a telephone booth. He looked mysterious. When he was in the booth I heard him say something about leaving on a trip to collect about a million dollars. All of a sudden he walked in the line to get a ticket for the boat I was going on. I got my ticket and waited for him. I came right behind him when we were boarding. The captain was there so I talked to him. Telling him about how the guy acted, and how I felt his personality was. He agreed. I told him to keep an eye out for him. The captain told me the same. I layed a good eye on him. When he was playing Bingo, I thought that it would be a good time to read the newspaper. Then right before my eyes I saw the man’s picture with a big wanted sign over it. Since I am part of the FBI unit I stood up and said Freeze to the strange man, whos’ name is William Smelltzer. The man (a.k.a. William Smelltzer) was arrested and got reported to the county jail in Petosky, MI. Caleb E. Wrightinowski ( this is from the journal of Caleb E. Wrightinowski)
My Mystery Friday night at seven o’clock I’m leaving on a trip to solve a mystery that happened on a ship. The mystery was a million dollars was missing that a tall man had.

He went and asked the tall man if he could buy some new things around the ship and the tall man said ok. He went and bought a bunch of new things for the ship. Some of the stuff the captain the captain did not like. The tall man bought a telephone both and weird stuff like that but the tall man liked it and the captain did not. The captain stole the tall mans million dollars. When the tall man didn’t couldn’t find his million dollars he could have blown threw the roof he was so mad. He hired some investigators with the little money he had. The investigators interviewed almost all the people on the boat. When the investigators interviewed the captain he cracked.

After that the tall man got his money back and the captain well he got arrested.
The Big Mystery Dear Mr. Faminy, Friday night at seven o’clock their were shadows in the distance at Michigan Street. I didn’t know exactly what they were at the time so but I had a pretty good idea. A couple was at a telephone booth. It seems as if they were calling a relative or whoever. They won’t say anything about it. Anyway, they were leaving on a trip in a taxi cab. Then a tall man with a large black coat, a top hat, and a brief case snook up behind them. Then, he ordered them to get in another taxi cab and ordered the first one to drive off. The taxi cab license plate number was: 13B9F2. We followed the car and it stopped at a restaurant called “The Captain’s Corner.” Leaving behind a million dollars the man got in the police car with gauds around so he would escape while we looked for the couple inside. We found them locked up in a closet but neither was seriously wounded. We questioned them and found the tall man guilty. He is in the county jail and the couple is safe at home after the trip. Sincerely, Detective Nancy Drew
My Mystery I’m 10 years old and I love to solve mysteries. This is how my first big mystery started. My mom and I were going to the bank and the banker told us that all the money in the bank was gone. So I thought I should go find all of the money. That night when my mom went to sleep I went down stairs and left a note on the table. It said I was leaving on a trip. The next morning it was Friday. Mom was still a sleep so I left. I had to meet a tall man in a telephone booth on First Street. When I got there the man was not there so I waited. I waited for many hours. He came at Friday night at seven o’clock that night. We talked about the missing money. He told me who stole the money, it was the captain of the biggest crew. He showed me a pitcher of him. I took it and turned him in! A few weeks later the police found him. It turned out he stole a million dollars. Once everyone knew I solved the mystery I got to be mayor for a day. So that’s my big mystery!!!!
