- Speak to a Gossip & let them tell you everything they know & they'll mention the Sinclair family members buying poison.
- Head over South & nearby Seers bank speak to the Poison Salesman. Ask him about the sales he made with the Sinclair family & you can show the Salesman the Pungent Pot & he'll know that the smell is his own Poison.
- Speak to each of the children the Poison Salesman says he sold poison to they are Frank, Bob, David, Elizabeth, Anna, Carol & ask them what they used the poison for.
- Next go around investigating the areas they said which they cleaned, one of them will not have used the poison on that certain item. (Note: each persons quest outcome is different).
- Whoever didn't use their poison is the culprit, but you need more evidence to prove its that person. (Note: you can go back to the evidence room & take the Criminals Dagger & investigate the window to find a Criminals Thread if you haven't done this earlier).
- Alright now look for the barrel that belongs to the criminal who's pants match the color of the thread, the barrels are spread all around the house so make sure you search each room carefully. you should then find an item that belongs to that person in their barrel & you must use that item for their fingerprints.
- Now head over to the room west of the cooks room & you'll see two sacks, search them & you will find flypaper get a few of them (two or three should be enough).
- Now in the cooks room is a barrel full of flour, fill the regular pot you've brought with you on the quest with that flour (or you can get the flour elsewhere it doesn't matter). Use the flour on the Criminals Dagger & then use the Dagger with the flypaper you will then get an unidentified fingerprint.
- Next get some more flour & use it with the item you found in your culprit's barrel Get more flour from the pot and use it with the item you found in the culprit's barrel. Once you do that use the flour on the culprit's item & you'll have to use it with the flypaper & use the culprit's fingerprints with the unidentified fingerprints, & they should match.
