Remember the mysterious package of white powder from a dead Russian composer mailed from Europe to a Port Hardy family earlier this year?

It was the drug Ecstasy. But the why remains a mystery.

Twyla Mclachlan contacted the police Feb. 11 after a family member received the package in their post office box, and, upon opening it, was shocked by what was inside.

According to Mclachlan there was a 91裸聊视频淗appy Birthday91裸聊视频� letter signed by Leon Bakst, a Russian composer who died in 1924, and a suspicious vacuum-packed baggie.

Draht added Canada Post did mention the letter included in this incident was far more professional in nature than what they usually see.

The investigation continues.
