All summer the mudlarks of Wapping have been pulling medieval pilgrim badges out of the Thames, and the British Museum has paid handsomely for every one. Tonight a curator turned over a twelfth-century badge and found it dated 1857.

Victorian London: case 24

This Hard case seats 20 suspects on a 4×5 grid. 16 of them carry a clue; the other 4 only have something to say about themselves. 4 of the steps can only be proven by reading two or more clues together. Case 24 of the free Victorian London case pack. Same rules as every Clues & Culprits case: everyone tells the truth, and only proven verdicts stick.
