Floyd \| Floyd \| Floyd \| Floyd \| Floyd \| Floyd \| Floyd \| Floyd \| Floyd \| The robbery was bold, to say the least. Eight diamonds, stolen from Floyd \| secure displays in the Kimberly Diamond Mining Company exhibit. Four Floyd \| of the diamonds were rough and uncut, three beautifully finished. The Floyd \| last diamond was the prize of the collection: one of the largest Floyd \| diamonds in the world, presented to Queen Victoria by the company and Floyd \| on loan from her for this special exhibit. All of them taken at once, Floyd \| quietly, under the noses of four well-trained guards.

Floyd \| Floyd \| Floyd \| Floyd \| Floyd \| Floyd \| Floyd \| Floyd \| Floyd \| You knew there was going to be trouble. The World's Fair was a place Floyd \| for fortunes to be made--legally or illegally, it mattered not to Floyd \| some. Outside the fairgrounds, jobs were becoming harder to come by, Floyd \| and it was becoming increasingly evident to what lengths some men Floyd \| would go to earn what they considered rightfully theirs. And so Floyd \| Chicago's grand Exposition has become not only a place of Floyd \| entertainment and education, but of profit, for those who are clever Floyd \| enough to take advantage. Dreamers and schemers, fools and sharks, Floyd \| simple farmers and cynical cityfolk mingle together on the grounds. Floyd \| The Columbian Guards keep the peace and provide order as best they Floyd \| can, with your old friend, the most competent Carl Masters, in charge. Floyd \| But although he is well equipped to handle the minor crimes, he never Floyd \| had the best head for the more complex and devious. And so he called Floyd \| you.

Floyd \| The Kimberly Diamond Mining Company compiled a list of the missing Floyd \| items: Floyd \| Floyd \| 4 rough, unfinished diamonds Floyd \| 3 cut and polished diamonds Floyd \| 1 crown diamond Floyd \| Floyd \| The jewels were from the private collection of one of the board Floyd \| members of the Company. If any are found, they may be taken to a Mr. Floyd \| Wentworth, an expert in the matter of precious stones, who will verify Floyd \| if the stone in question is indeed from the collection.

Floyd \| The note is written in a cribbed, narrow hand.

Floyd \| Floyd \| Young Dennis likes spelunking, Floyd \| In darkness feared and great; Floyd \| Fair Ida likes to swim, Floyd \| And tempt the hands of fate. Floyd \| Floyd \| Bullish Adam stays outdoors, Floyd \| Free and strong and wild; Floyd \| Mary studies Egyptian script, Floyd \| And writes her name in style.

Floyd \| Before boarding the train to the fair, you carefully typed out a Floyd \| detailed description of Greenback Bob, should you find that he is Floyd \| indeed involved and need to share the information quickly. Floyd \| Floyd \| Greenback Bob is a counterfeiter, or at least so it is believed; no Floyd \| one has been able to catch him at it, yet. He is known to be a Floyd \| reckless gambler. Floyd \| Floyd \| The Police reports describe him as follows: Floyd \| Floyd \| Nationality: American Floyd \| Floyd \| Age: twenty-eight to thirty years Floyd \| Floyd \| Height: five feet four inches, approximately Floyd \| Floyd \| Weight: one hundred eighty pounds, approximate Floyd \| Floyd \| General remarks: figure heavy but muscular; somewhat slovenly Floyd \| appearance; broad, flat nose and squinty brown eyes; hair brown; He Floyd \| typically wears a long, unkempt beard, dark brown in color.

Floyd \| Before boarding the train to the fair, you carefully typed out a Floyd \| detailed description of Delbras, should you find that he is indeed Floyd \| involved and need to share the information quickly. Floyd \| Floyd \| Of Delbras, you know very little. You know, first, that he has Floyd \| recently fled Paris, which had become too hot for him, and that he was Floyd \| headed to the Fair, for what purpose it can only be guessed. From Floyd \| Paris, a dispatch had been received describing him as handsome, Floyd \| educated, and familiar with the ways of good society. Although still Floyd \| unproven, he is suspected in a string of diamond robberies in Paris. Floyd \| Floyd \| Further, the French report describes him as follows: Floyd \| Floyd \| Nationality: French Floyd \| Floyd \| Age: probably about thirty to thirty-three years Floyd \| Floyd \| Height: six feet Floyd \| Floyd \| Weight: one hundred seventy-five pounds, approximate Floyd \| Floyd \| General remarks: figure good; square shoulders, military air; Floyd \| features, regular; thin-lipped; chin sharply pointed; wears at times a Floyd \| heavy beard, at others moustache and goatee; eyes dark, called black; Floyd \| hair same, heavy, and sometimes worn quite long; hands well kept, with Floyd \| long slender fingers; speaks English perfectly; a small triangular Floyd \| scar upon temple close to roots of hair.

		Jacqueline \| Eating and Sleeping You've learned through your experience as a detective the value of getting three meals a day. These meals typically consist of a grab-and-go breakfast, a light lunch, and a nice sit down meal for dinner. The game will let you know when you are getting hungry. Of course, missing the occasional meal is part of the job, just be careful not to miss too many, or it could get you into trouble. There are restaurants all around the grounds, as well as the occasional take out food.
		Teaspoon says, "oh god, a food clock"
		Jacqueline says, "Yes."
		Teaspoon says, "Oh well, we probably won't get far enough for that to be a crisis."
		Jacqueline exclaims, "And a sleep clock!"
		Jacqueline \| Although you can skip the occasional meal, one thing you cannot miss is your bedtime. You've learned over the course of your career that a good night's sleep and an early start is absolutely essential in order to have a clear enough head to solve a case.

		Knight_Otu says, "I guess at least we have more than one in-game day to solve this crime."

		Jacqueline \| Peter Nepstad is a writer who lives in Chicago a stone's throw away from the site of the 1893 World's Fair, now Jackson Park. Completing 1893: AWFM was too much of a strain for him, some say, he is now often seen wandering about the park in turn of the century clothing, asking passerby directions to Hagenbeck's Animal Auditorium.
		Teaspoon says, "...aw"

Floyd \| ______________________________________________________________________ Floyd \| _________ Floyd \| Floyd \| Floyd \| Floyd \| Floyd \| Floyd \| Floyd \| Floyd \| Floyd \| Standing in a commanding position in the room is a tall, Floyd \| broad-shouldered man wearing a brown overcoat and smoking a thick Floyd \| cigar. You recognize him instantly-- Carl Masters, one of the most Floyd \| highly regarded detectives in Chicago. You heard that he had been Floyd \| hired for the Fair, to oversee all the detective work, and to do a Floyd \| little himself, when the case warranted it. He had his hands full, Floyd \| you knew, and it was at his suggestion that Fair Management contacted Floyd \| your offices. He sees you as you enter. Floyd \| Floyd \| "Well, well, well!" he shouts, smiling. "It's good to see you made Floyd \| it. What do you think of this White City of ours?" Floyd \| Floyd \| You are about to respond, but quickly realize your old friend is not Floyd \| interested in wasting time with idle pleasantries just now. He Floyd \| continues: Floyd \| Floyd \| "And yet surrounded by beauty such dastardly deeds occur." He shakes Floyd \| his head. "I don't need to tell you, but I'm very glad you have Floyd \| finally arrived. We're in the thick of it now. This diamond Floyd \| heist--I'm counting on you for it. We have no one to spare. As for Floyd \| myself, I have a vexing and rather unpleasant affair--you can read Floyd \| today's paper about it if you like; a kidnapping, for ransom, no less; Floyd \| a young, moneyed gent from Boston took a wrong turn late at night. Floyd \| The family wired yesterday--they've been asked for a ransom but they Floyd \| seem unwilling to pay it. No leads yet." He takes another puff on Floyd \| his cigar. "I'm trying to convince the family to come down and have a Floyd \| go at it; we might yet be able to nab the culprits during the Floyd \| exchange. It's a delicate business." Floyd \| Floyd \| Masters turns his full attention on you. "I'm sorry, best forget Floyd \| about my case and concentrate on yours. Now listen carefully. Your Floyd \| office is all set up; there's a safe inside in which you can deposit Floyd \| any of the stolen gems you recover. There's also a bill of draft on Floyd \| the desk, you can use it to withdraw a daily spending allowance from Floyd \| the bank in this building. Sorry for the trouble, but as I say, we Floyd \| really have no one to spare. They will write you up new drafts daily, Floyd \| so you can just head over to the bank when it opens first thing each Floyd \| morning to withdraw your stipend." Floyd \| Floyd \| "I'll try to be here, in the office, every morning until around nine. Floyd \| If you like, we can compare notes and discuss the case. If you have Floyd \| any questions, just ask. And if you find anything out, tell me as Floyd \| soon as you can. I've got to leave soon, but..." He pauses for a Floyd \| moment. "I almost forgot. I'm afraid they haven't given you carte Floyd \| blanche. You're here as a detective in an unofficial capacity. So Floyd \| don't expect vendors and customers to part the red sea for you. I've Floyd \| distributed your picture among the guards, they know who you are and Floyd \| should be able to provide assistance. If they see trouble, they will Floyd \| come get me. I should be able to take care of any bureaucratic messes Floyd \| you get into, but just be careful." Floyd \| Floyd \| "I'm sure you'll want to get familiar with the fairgrounds. They're Floyd \| quite expansive, but essential to know if you want to get any proper Floyd \| detective work done, at least in my experience. I left a guidebook in Floyd \| your desk. There's also a tour that leaves at eleven-thirty every day Floyd \| from just outside the east entrance to this building which you may Floyd \| want to take as well." Floyd \| Floyd \| You shake hands. "Welcome to Chicago," he says, smiling. Floyd \| Floyd \| >		Teaspoon says, "oh man"

The horse is of the sturdy Flanders breed, Floyd \| noted for endurance. Every muscle is clearly brought out. The Floyd \| massive hoofs rest upon the pedestal as though conscious of the Floyd \| immense weight of the animal they support.
