  "subject": "karras_dimitrios",
  "verb": "covers_for",
  "object": "halpern_saul",
  "confirmation": "Confirmed. The Athens publication of August 1937 was, as Saul Halpern's letter of 17 June 1962 acknowledges, a necessary fiction. Dimitrios Karras commissioned the copy and delivered it through Mr. Stavridis; the original remained in the Halpern cabinet in Brooklyn. The fiction has held for thirty-one years."
