HALEY MASSACRE Town Guard sweeping it under the rug. Grappling hook over east wall. (M@S.gate) Brought mirrors into Great Hall so victims could observe own torture, dismemberment. Stole & smashed, used knives from kitchen. Espec. on Lord Haley & Colette (eldest daughter). Haley & Lord Hazen had same courtier, Rosalyn Swayle. Pierce Winthrop was also involved with her. Says other vengeances are being taken. (For her or someone else?) RS is missing, there are signs fo a struggle at her house, knives missing, door open. Her (?) body turned up in the Old Quarter, recovered by Hammerites, brought to the Digger, someone (PW?) paid for it to be taken to the Bonehoard & interred. Didn't die easily, stabbed with a variety of knives, right-handed stabbing motion, few other signs. (Animal activity.) Magic use, flashbomb + ??? Angel has residue. The new Di Rossi butler is a former Haley butler. Is there a link to Cragscleft? Thornton: YES. Possible trip there (probably not). Possible references? (Mosely? Probably not.) Rosalyn Swayle had a kid, possibly "D. Swayle" who was busted for jewel thievery. August 21, 33 years ago birth..Pierce natal chart? 15 years ago, big jewel theft case that was swept under the rug. Squat for evidence, removed. Silvanus & Sons robbed, description of the jewels, valuable, very old. Elder Silvanus thinking over cooperation. D. Swayle would have been 18. Sent to Cragscleft. R. Riley and M. Farina are the accomplices. M. Farina = Michael Farina, Newmarket pickpocket who was released from Cragscleft about 2 mo. before the jewel theft case. S&S had just gotten the jewel as part of another shipment. Sidney Silvanus (is the son). Judge Eliot Norell, ret. handled the case. Won't talk. Sgt. Edward Conroy (now Captain, in charge of the Haley case), and Sgt. Mason (now Sherriff, in charge of Conroy) handled the case and got "confessions" from the culprits. But not the location of the jewel. Hammerite patrols in the Old City, looking for psychos? With lawnmower blades? SMUGGLING Kingsley connected to smuggling. Have the ledger, need to translate. Uses a warehouse with day labor, etc. Nightwind = ship, Austen = warehouse foreman. Possibly for Spenser? Kingsley is small time just paying the minimum vig. Cap'n Jamison of the Elsie, cased the area, he left. Missed opportunity. POSSIBLE SLAVERY RING Linked to Kingsley somehow? Victor Brinmore, whoremonger. Has private docks, a small storage area. If slaves, then where are food and supplies? Where kept? SPICE SMUGGLING Town Guard fracas with smugglers. All 10 badguys, including workers. 8 guards ambushed thm, 4 dead, all injured.
