You are here: Home> Archives> Click here to print this page Guest Puzzle – March 2008 "Deliverance" by Arthur Schless Instructions: Guess the words defined by the cryptic clues (words vary in length from three to eleven letters and include four capitalized words), then enter them in the grid one after another in the same order as their clues, starting in the upper left corner. Across words that don't end at the right continue on the next row, and down words that don't end at the bottom continue in the next column. Seven across words and six down words won't fit in the grid unless on of their letters is removed. Those thirteen letters, taken in order, spell a four-word phrase describing an eleven-digit number. The number is to be entered in the dashes beneath the grid. The digits of that number, taken in conjunction with the row numbers to the left of the grid, mark the positions of letters in the grid that spell a two-word phrase related to the puzzle's title. (If you are having trouble printing these puzzles, you can download an Adobe Acrobat version of the puzzle and grid).
