>  The sequence could have been as follows:

>A, B, E, and F arrive in any order (A sees F).

>B leaves.

>C arrives (A sees C).

>E leaves.

>D arrives.

>A, C, D, and F leave in any order but perhaps A last, with book.

My sequence is as follows:
1) A and D arrive (D sees A).
2) D leaves.
3) B and E arrive (A sees B & E, E sees B).
4) A leaves.
5) F arrives (B sees F, F sees E).
6) B leaves.
7) C arrives (C sees F, F sees C, E sees C).
8) E leaves.
9) D arrives (D sees F, C sees F & D).
10) Everyone leaves.

and everyone is telling the truth!!
