Unknown 10-9-19

This was properly identified by my Analyzer, but it took me some work interactively using the crib to solve it. The text consists of two unrelated sentences randomly pulled from Gutenberg.org

  1. The second passage continues: NK YMJ WJHTWIX

    All my ID tests put the correct type on top. But I overlooked the real period and tried a period twice the correct value. With the wrong period there were several places for the crib. I tried the first possible crib position which by accident was the correct one and my hill-climber solved it quickly. When I solved for the keys I noticed a repeated value and realized the key was actually half as long as I had thought.
