The character tokens, the covered manhole tiles, and the lit gaslight tiles are set on the board in accordance with the following picture. The gaslights are lit when a lit gaslight tile is placed on them. They illuminate all the adjacent street hexes. If there is no lit gaslight tile on the hex, then the gaslight is out.

The same rule applies if two characters are on adjoining hexes, even in the darkness. Unseen characters: the characters that are not on an illuminated hex (lit by gaslight or Watson's lantern) or on a street hex adjacent to another character are considered to be unseen. John Watson: Move 1 to 3 spaces then choose his final direction. All characters on the line (except Watson) are visible.
