The Testament of Sherlock Holmes Hints
What can I use to attach the paper to the rope?
1 of 6: You'll need some sort of pins.
2 of 6: Something like clothes pins should work.
3 of 6: If you didn't get any of them from the garden area earlier, go do so now.
4 of 6: Go up to the laundry line and click on the two clothes pins that aren't currently in use (presumably because the shirt they were pinning to the line got stolen).
5 of 6: Select the clothes pins (called "clothes pegs") in inventory, then click on the little rope that's on the desk to place them.
6 of 6: You can then select the blank paper in inventory and click on the rope to pin it up there.
