Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective, Volume I Hints
What can I learn from the newspaper?
1 of 3: Even the paper doesn't have all that much information for you. You need to talk to Gerard at the French Embassy before you'll be able to use what little there is.
2 of 3: Look at the first article on page 2 of the 10 June 1890. It tells you the name of the theatre where Gerard and Armstead watched a play.
3 of 3: Go to the Princess Theatre. That's about all you can learn from the paper. The Tontine banquet is mentioned, but your investigation turns up the same information as the paper provides.
