Read the given passage and answer the questions that follow.

Occasionally on an afternoon, at his hour of clarity and energy, he’d leave his easy-chair, bolt the door and open the first cupboard, take out the key under the paper lining, and then open the other cupboard containing his documents—title-deeds, diaries, papers and a will.
