Secret Word Puzzle

Railroads like to keep their trains on time. Station agents and conductors check their watches often. They want to make sure the train stops are on schedule. In the 1870s, many railroad officials used pocket watches. And those pocket watches had Roman numerals on them.

A pocket watch with a letter printed next to each Roman numeral: I = A, II = E, III = F, IV = H, V = K, VI = L, VII = N, VIII = O, IX = P, X = R, XI = S, XII = T

I   =   1

II   =   2

III   =   3

IV   =   4

V   =   5

VI   =   6

VII   =   7

VIII   =   8

IX   =   9

X   =   10

XI   =   11

XII   =   12
