After solving all 5 puzzles (33% connection) for Samuel Buckwell, I get the following conversation log:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I have lived in this town a long time. I know it, and I know the people in it. I was its shepherd for a long time. It was my home. If you connect with me, I will try to help find you your best friend, while telling you some of Bay Horse's history.

Have you seen a picture of town's old Church? It was much larger than the current church. It was a very large place, but looking at that drawing always made me think of home. I've never been able to put my finger on why. I guess it is because an old preacher is going to think that the center of a town should be its church. After the furor of the past week, I find myself longing for the quiet of its sanctuary. Accusations lie upon every lip and nobody trusts anyone else. It reminds me of the last time I...


I will not post puzzle spoilers unless requested.

I have 40% for Samuel now. As well as what is posted above i got:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Forgive an old preacher for starting his talk with an old, burned down church. I'm sure you want to know more about the Wylie House. I could talk about the departed spirits who live there, but I have always thought that the departed were in the Lord's hands. Even though I am now myself departed, I still think that way.

The Wylie house is one of the oldest houses in Bay Horse. I never could track down who built the house, but the man who built it, Forrest Wylie, was a good man who brought a lot of prosperity to Bay Horse when he moved in. He came to Bay Horse at the end of his life, and brought his money with him. He didn't merely renovate the Wylie house, but also several other buildings in the area. I've stayed in the house a long time, and was overjoyed when Madame Z purchased it... before that, the only visitors I would get would be the occasional curious teenager, looking for any secrets that Forrest Wylie might have left behind.

With 53% I get this message:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities. But whatsoever hath a blemish, that shall ye not offer: for it shall not be acceptable for you. And the land shall yield her fruit, and ye shall eat your fill, and dwell therein in safety.

They have deeply corrupted themselves, as in the days of Gibeah: therefore he will remember their iniquity, he will visit their sins. This day is a day of trouble, and of rebuke, and of blasphemy: for the children are come to the birth, and there is not strength to bring forth. Daniel was grieved in my spirit in the midst of my body, and the visions of my head troubled me. Be not hasty to go out of his sight: stand not in an evil thing; for he doeth whatsoever pleaseth him.

And she said, The glory is departed from Israel: for the ark of God is taken. Thou shalt not steal. But when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimea David's brother slew him. And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace: otherwise work is no more work. Ye shall not make with me gods of silver, neither shall ye make unto you gods of gold. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,Thou art beautiful, O my love, as Tirzah, comely as Jerusalem, terrible as an army with banners.

And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried: they shall call on my name, and I will hear them: I will say, It is my people: and they shall say, The LORD is my God.

Draw thee waters for the siege, fortify thy strong holds: go into clay, and tread the morter, make strong the brick kiln. Every one had four faces apiece, and every one four wings; and the likeness of the hands of a man was under their wings. So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his wife loveth himself. And whoso falleth not down and worshippeth, that he should be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace. And there was trembling in the host, in the field, and among all the people: the garrison, and the spoilers, they also trembled, and the earth quaked: so it was a very great trembling

In those days I Daniel was mourning three full weeks. And it came to pass at midnight, that the man was afraid, and turned himself: and, behold, a woman lay at his feet. And we came to Jerusalem, and abode there three days. And they troubled the people and the rulers of the city, when they heard these things. But if thou shalt forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in thee.

But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood. And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh. And the high places of Isaac shall be desolate, and the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid waste; and I will rise against the house of Jeroboam with the sword. But she that liveth in pleasure is dead while she liveth.


There is a puzzle within this message...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Each sentence is from a bible passage. After looking them all up, the first letter of each book from the bible spells out "All hide secrets. Z needs dread heat." I have no idea what "dread heat" could mean. Feel free to double check my bible search skills.


I plan on emailing Anton my findings after I get confirmation from some of the other agents as to the accuracy of the solve.

I'm at 66% with Samuel now and just got this
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I spend as much time as I can in the tallest part of the Wylie house, the tower. From there I can see the new church. It is so much smaller than the old church. I suppose sometimes majesty is false, and it must be destroyed to make for something honest and pure. I can see the cemetery from my vantage point. So many people. My flock… and there were so many of them I could not tend to in their last years. So many of them turned away from me, spit or raged when I came near. How is it that they could pass peacefully away to the places, heaven or hell or whatever else exists in these dead lands, and yet I can not? What holds me here? Is it the same thing that keeps Mr. Emerson here? I've heard him late at night, raging and cursing at "the system" and, specifically, a man named "Roger."

I sense you may have a question for me. I cannot tend to anyone but people who live far away from me now, but I still wish to do what I can. Please ask me whatever you wish.

I asked him about the fire.

I am certain it's an anagram of a hymn but I can't figure out which one yet.
