Read the excerpt from "Tools of the Spymaster."
General Clinton, concerned about what General Howe was planning and doing, made use of a mask to write a secret message in a letter to General Burgoyne.
Before writing the letter, Clinton had placed an hourglass-shaped mask on a piece of paper and then had formed the secret message within that shape.
The unmasked letter had enough false information in it to fool any American who happened to see it. But when Burgoyne viewed the letter with the mask, he read Clinton's view of the real situation: Howe has made a bad move; I don't have enough men to do anything about it.
Which statement best expresses the central idea of the excerpt?
Generals were able to send secret messages to each other using a mask.
General Howe failed to help the other generals defeat the Americans.
The British were better at using codes than the Americans.
False information in a letter could cause problems for the Americans.
