    It is absolutely correct that apparent illogicality sometimes turns out to be a futuristic projection. There are many things that happened in the past that changed our lives forever. If the bulb had not been invented, today the world would be in darkness. No one even thought that a machine (Computer) would do mathematical calculations worth crores in a fraction of a second. And this machine will help us the way we work in hospitals, offices, railways, airports etc. Without their respective invention our life would have been different.

    Certainly the third level was a medium of escape for Charley. He was fed up with sufferings of life. As today’s life is full of tensions and he wanted to run away from all those problems. Like any other human being he was fed up of concrete jungle and wanted himself in a place which is less crowded and very peaceful. The fast life made him uneasy and restless. He started thinking about past that his forefathers have lived and he fell into those dreams. He used to think about living such life and wanted to live a one like that. Not for few days, he wanted to move to a place called Galesburg permanently with his wife Louisa because Galesburg was his dream city.

    Sam’s letter to Charley is dated 18th July, 1894. He wrote from Galesburg. After buying old currency Sam departed for Galesburg as he too like Charley wanted to escape the fast life of city and wanted to settle in imagining world. Letter also suggests that those who can find the third level can enjoy songs, music and peaceful life. As a reader it feels as if Galesburg is a non urban city which has lot of greenery and less commercial activities and people tend to spend more time with each other in most of the times of day. Sam was happy after finding the third level and invited Charley and his wife to keep searching for third level.
