Logic Puzzle

by April iz

Trixie and Honey aren't the only ones who can solve mysteries.  Last Saturday, while they were at the Sleepyside Library researching their latest case, each of the five other members of the Bob-Whites(Jim, Brian, Mart, Dan, and Di) were asked by one of their adult friends to help find a different missing item.  Each Bob-White found their item in a different place.   From the information provided, match each Bob-White with the friend (one was Mr. Maypenny) for whom he or she found a lost item, the locations where the items were found (one was on a path in the preserve) and the type of item (including a favorite pen) that was lost.

have fun solving...

1.  Jim, who found Mrs. Vanderpoel’s item, wasn’t the one who found the sunglasses.  Brian did not help Miss Trask, whose item was found near the clubhouse (which wasn’t the glove.)

2.  Regan was embarrassed to admit he lost the keys to the tack room. Di isn’t the one who found the hat beside Glen Road.

3.  Three of the items are: the one Harrison lost (which isn’t the sunglasses), the one Brian picked up, and the item found by the lake

4.  Mart found the glove, but not for Harrison.  Di is neither the one who found the item near the clubhouse nor the one who found the item that had been left on the counter at Lytell's store.
