I arrive in New York

by Lady Florence Merica

Tuesday 20th January 1925
 
I arrive in New York a few days after the agreed upon arrival date, I have not been able to contact Jackson Elias for some reason. I decide to travel to his hotel through a blizzard no less, only to find police in the foyer preventing anyone from entering the hotel proper. I manage to gain access to a stairwell without being noticed. Once on Jackson’s floor I discover the reason for the police presence, there has been a disturbance, on walking down the corridor, which had blood and signs of a brawl following this, I find this disturbance has started in Jackson’s room. It was a gruesome and disturbing sight, the window was broken, and there was blood simply everywhere, it looked like someone had severed several limbs and flailed about, the furniture has been broken and shifted around the room.
 
Most perplexing.
 
I have an appointment at Jackson’s publisher Propsers Press with Joanah Kensington, which I have been summoned too, in true Jackson style I am unsure what this is about. Once again out into the blizzard to get across town to the office. On arrival I find Charlie, Hans and Barthomew the chaps I met in South America a few years ago on another one of Jackson Elias’s schemes. There is also a nurse present who introduced herself as Elizabeth. It is explained that Jackson has been investigating the Carlyle expedition, the disappearance of Roger Carlyle in particular. It also seems that Barthomew and Elizabeth have also been investigating this and the disappearance of some African artifacts possibly from the expedition.
