"You are the only ones to have asked about Mr. Elias' visit." says Gavigan. He looks around at your group. "I take it you are looking into his murder in a unofficial manner?"
 

"As a favor for a friend. We've... had some unsettling and frankly dangerous encounters in investigating his death, enough so that we felt it better to leave the country for the time being," Miriam confesses.
 

"That and," Jack adds quickly, not wanting to look like they are controlled by the whim of others and perceived danger, "the desire to try to trace back Jackson's steps to see if we can figure out why all this has happened. What can you tell us about his activities while here in London?" Jack pulls out a cigarette and proceeds to light it.
 

"Mr. Elias just asked me some questions about the Carlyle Expedition. He didn't tell me about his activities here in London." Mr. Gavigan looks down at his wristwatch*. "I hope you find what you are looking for and if you are able to discover anything new about the Carlyle Expedition and Sir. Penhew's death I would very much like to be informed. Also if you need any additional information or help in your endeavors please give me a ring. I would gladly help in anyway that I can." He gives you his business card. It is just like the one you found in Jackson's hotel room in New York. "Now if you will excuse me I am late to an important meeting at the British Museum." He stands up and shakes your hands.

*OOC:Wristwatches are relatively new gadgets and mainly limited to the wealthy.
 

Father O'Malley grasps the man's hand. " Thank you for your time. YOu can be assured that we will contact you if we find out anything important."
 

"Yes indeed, thank you for your time Mr. Gavigan," Miriam says politely, nodding her head. She rises and leaves the office, walking at a moderate pace. When outside, she turns to the others. "Well, that was remarkably... not too terribly informative. Though I wonder if he was being evasive. 'Dubious territory' indeed. I should rather wonder if there's something he wasn't telling us."
 

"I have an idea... shall we go to the British Museum? Not that I want to follow Mr. Gavigan, but perhaps amongst the artifacts from Darkest Africa we may see weapon we have seen before, hmm? And learn its purpose?" Miriam suggests.

" I agree, Miriam. He seemed to be telling the truth to me, but it seemed somewhat odd that he was not more talkative about the foundation's founder.

ooc: did any published information on Jackson's death mention his investigations of the Carlyle expedition?

"I have an idea... shall we go to the British Museum? Not that I want to follow Mr. Gavigan, but perhaps amongst the artifacts from Darkest Africa we may see weapon we have seen before, hmm? And learn its purpose?" Miriam suggests.

Jibril nods. "It might be a good idea at that. I might bring up one thing however - One or two of us might reasonably be expected to want to visit the British Museum for whatever reason, be it African artifacts or the Crown Jewels. But Mr. Gavigan already knows that as a group, we are unnofficially investigating Jackson's death. If you believe heknows something he was so far unwilling to tell us, we should try to make him feel at ease with us, rather than fear that we are shadowing him."

"Jack, what was your read on the man?"
 

Charles' eyes widen as a thought pops into his head. "Oh my..." he murmurs as he polishes his spectacles, "...what if he is a part of the plot to have Jackson killed? Perhaps we should investigate to where Jackson's estate was deferred upon his death..."
