Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective, Volume I Hints
Why was Turnbull killed?
1 of 7: Travis was the Egyptian correspondant for The Times.
2 of 7: So I'm sure that he wrote all of the articles about egyptology.
3 of 7: He was also a nut (both a big fan and an insane person) about Egyptian history, as you saw when you went to talk to him.
4 of 7: Look in The Times to see if he wrote anything controversial about egyptologists.
5 of 7: There's an article at the top of page 2 of the August 17, 1888 issue.
6 of 7: It happens to be about Turnbull. Travis was highly critical of him.
