Objectives of The Iniquities of History
1. Go to Compson's house
Jeremiah's house is located to the north of Rhodes.
2. Search the house for Compson's watch, pistol and ledger
The house can be entered through a door on the south side of the house.
The first item, the watch, lies on the fireplace in the first room.
Go to the other room and check the picture standing on the fireplace there.
Looking at the picture, you will notice that there is a trapdoor in the room.
When you put the picture back, two squatters will enter the room. One of them will try to shoot you with an old gun, but this one will not work so he will draw the knife. The other one will retreat back to the other room.
3. Deal with the squatters
Arthur will also draw the knife. You can fight with a knife or quickly draw your gun and shoot.
When you defeat the first squatter, the second one will come back and attack you. Kill him too.
4. Pick up Compson's pistol
Pick up the pistol lying on the floor. This is the second item you are looking for.
5. Search the house for Compson's ledger
Open the trapdoor in the floor of the room and go down to the basement.
Ledger is lying on the crate at the end of the basement.
Read it and you'll find out that Compson was involved in the slave trade.
6. Return the items to Compson
Compton has changed position and now you can find him at his tent located southeast of the house.
Arthur doesn't respect Compton for what he has been doing and throws his items into the fire. This concludes this mission.
