 these facts? If so, who did murder Lord Hazelton? (Assume there was only one
 cause of death.)
 
+Let's use some assumptions and then provide their corresponding conclusions.
+
+The cook was in the kitchen at the time of the murder $\therefore$ The butler
+killed Lord Hazelton with a fatal dose of strychnine (by c).
+
+This contradicts a, so this is not true. This also extends to e:
+
+The cook was not in the kitchen at the time of the murder $\therefore$ Sara was
+not in the dining room when the murder was committed. Which then contradicts f,
+and relates to b.
+
+Ether Lady Hazelton or a maid, Sara, was in the dining room at the time of the
+murder.
+
+But we know that Sara was not in the dining room by e. So Lady Hazelton was in
+the dining room at the time of the murder, which leads us to d.

+Lady Hazelton was in the dining room at the time of the murder. $\therefore$ The

 40 Sharky, a leader of the underworld, was killed by one of his own band of four
 henchmen. Detective Sharp interviewed the men and determined that all were lying
 except for one. He deduced who killed Sharky on the basis of the following

 Who did kill Sharky?
 
+Let's assume Socko is lying. This leads us to:
+
+Lefty didn't kill Sharky. This means that Muscles is telling the truth. This
+means that both Fats and Lefty are lying. Which means Muscles killed Sharky and
+that Muscles wasn't shooting craps with Sock when Sharky was knocked off. This
+means Muscles killed Sharky.
