Show your silver coin to the guys at the table, then threaten them and you will wake up the next day in your room upstairs. Examine the floor to find a hole, then search the hole to get 1 franc.
Leave your room and leave the tavern. Henri will talk to you - accept him as your manservant. Talk to him again and get him to pick up the body. Go down the street just to the right to find the church. Knock on the door and talk to the priest, who will give you a notice about the church renovations.

Continue right to the stables. Talk to the blacksmith. Take the horseshoe from the wall near the arch. Take the tongs from the left wall (Henri will pay for them). Try to leave through the archway, but you will need some transportation first.
Leave the stables to the left and enter the shop at the far left. Talk to the shop owner, then take the needle and thread. Go back outside and go into the large building with the blue door. Go in to see the captain. Talk to him then examine the bowl on his desk to get a melon. Examine the papers on his desk to find out he has lost a letter. Examine the rest of the papers until you get a blank sheet in your inventory. Use this on the candle to reveal the message. Now talk to the captain again to get a pass. Read the papers on the floor and you will take one with you.
