Testimony of the dead
He didn't. But some of the killers he dealt with did. A Jittery Strangler once followed Cumberbold back to his lair. You located a copy of his neat journal, which describes a painted cavern hidden in the warren of tunnels. You return with a lamp, string and provisions. After a day of searching, you find the cave. The Mute has daubed its glistening clay walls with finger-paintings and studded them with tokens: coins, scraps, calling cards.

Among them you find a caricatured - but recognisable - image of Scathewick. Beneath it is a fractional impression in the clay - perhaps made by a seal? Or a stamp? Most it is lost, but you can make out an eye, something pointed, and a fragment of a word: NEROFT. Is that a name? An acronym? You take a careful plaster cast before returning to your lodgings. A clue is a clue."
