Nancy Drew: The Secret of the Old Clock Hints
What do I do with the thing I found in the podium?
1 of 7: It's a little hard to decipher this picture, but Nancy helps by describing it to you.
2 of 7: It shows the brothers who built the two houses standing in a tunnel beside an open passage. One of them is pulling on a lantern that's hooked to a sort of lever.
4 of 7: If you go down there now, you'll find something has changed.
5 of 7: Go down the ladder, turn on the light, and take one step forward.
6 of 7: Does this light look familiar? This is the one the brother in the picture was pulling on. If you click on it now, a new passage will open up. Follow it!
7 of 7: And when you come back to the Lilac Inn, I'd talk to Jane about it too.
