What happened at this picnic?
Before the war, two girls went missing from Clarksburg. I'm picking up the investigation decades later to see if I can determine what happened to them.
Examine two Bicycles, Rat Poison (Empty) and Mary Tinley's Recording.
I found an old picnic site with two dead girls, their bikes and some board games. One of the bikes had an address to the Wesley home in Clarksburg.
Examine Cow Magnet and Chelsea's Diary Page.
I found an old picnic site with two dead girls, their bikes and some board games. Investigating the Wesley home, I discovered that Chelsea Wesley had been cheating at the game while insulting her friend Mary.
In the ruined house you'll find a backpack with the Mary's Diary Page.
My investigation into the two dead girls at the picnic site has revealed a tragic tale. Chelsea came from money, but Mary's family were poor. Despite coming from different worlds, they became friends. Chelsea would regularly cheat at all their games, refusing to believe that a girl like Mary could be allowed to win. Mary confronted her and Chelsea must have revealed her true, elitist feelings. Mary snapped and drowned Chelsea and then took her own life.
