The Six Guests
==============

-Martine Burden-
Young, attractive...In trouble in the Big Apple? Small Town girl returns home. What For? Rumors
of her involvement with some business magnate. Was she hurt by him? Did she want to hurt him 
back? And what was her connection to Stauff?

-Julia Heine-
A classy woman, though a few of her old friends said she had slipped into the habit of sipping
sherry in the afternoon...she certainly didn't belong at Stauf's fun house. Lived alone, in a
small apartment in the center of town. A single woman living all alone...what could she want
from a toy maker?

-Edward and Elinor Knox-
An older couple. Not exactly party animals. Should have been home reading the paper and 
listening to the Edgar Bergen. Bank records show that old Eddy was in deep trouble,way over his
head and sinking in a sea of debt. Did Elinor know how bad things were? Why did the guy bring
her to Stauf's? Did he think Stauf would bail him out? And what would be stauf's price?

-Brian Dutton-
Dutton lost his brother on the ice when they were both ice skating. Dutton saw his little bro
slip under. Did he try to help- or did he just stand there? And how much did that haunt Dutton?
And what's the reason he came to Stauf's "party"?

-Hamiliton Temple-
Now here's someone who belonged. A second-rate magician. Performed at the 1902 World's Fair...
high poin of his life? And what--downhill from there? Did he hope to learn some new tricks from
Stauf? Or was he too old for that stuff?

THE HARLEY SENTINEL        June 11, 1929

The brutal murder of Grace Willet continues to leave Harley police stumped and the residents of
the small town of Harley alarmed. Willet, a dedicated member of the South Hudson Presbyterian
Church, was killed Moday last when returning for late choir practice.
  The murder weapon, a hammer covered with blood, was found in  nearby hedges. According to
Police Chief Wallace Opsum, it appears that Miss Willet, who lives with her invalid sister, was
attacked on a dark corner where South Street Meets Bently Road.
  "The distrubing thing," Opsum told the Sentinel, "is the terrible brutality of this Killing.
Miss Willet was hit repeatedly with the hammer. And for what? The few dollars in her purse?" 
Despite the fact that the investigation has not turned up any suspects, Opsum reassures the
nervous residents of Harley that they have nothing to fear. "These are tough times," Opsum said.
"There are a lot of desperate drifters out there. The madman who did this most likely has moved
on to another river town...but he'll tip his hand. They all do."
  But with each day making the trail colder, Harley residents wonder if it isn't already too 
late. the regulars who gather for coffee and donuts at Benny's Cafe seemd to agree on one thing.
Hardware store owner Jack Muller spoke for them all: "No one will be getting much sleep until
this killer is caught."
  And do they have confidence in Chief Opsum and his men? Muller and the others laughed.

Virus Claims two more Harley Children

The deadly virus that has been claiming lives of Harley's children continues unchecked, with 
another two children dying this week. Emily Boothe, aged six, and Thomas Horner, aged nine, died
within hours of each other.
  These new deaths occurred with a suddenness and violence that have shocked this small village.
There has been no explanation as to why some children are getting the virus which produces a 
terrible fever from which that suffering children never recover.
  The virus has claimed a dozen children and officals at the County Hospital have little to 
offer for terrified parents. Earlier this week, Dr. Frederick P. Wilson, a NY Medical Center
immunology expert, visited the terror-stricken community. Though the world-famous doctor had
no explanation for the virus and why it appeared to be limited to Harley--he did offer
a warning to parents. " Make sure that children wash their hands well, to keep them germ free.
Wash their playthings too and, in general, keep a high level of cleanliness."
  Also important, the specialist added, "Parents should keep children away from any adults--
other than family members. It's possible," Wilson said, "that adults can carry something 
that, while not fatal to them, will prove fatal to their children."
  And what is it that Harley's parents are fighting? "I suspect that it's a form of the flu,
some new strain that we haven't seen before." Wilson has asked to be kept informed of any new
cases, promising to do what he can to understand this new disease.
