Six Lakeside leprechauns (Aoife, Bram, Cormac, Dahlia, Evelyn, and Finnigan) agree to take turns searching for a four-leaf clover on Saint Patrick’s Day. They each choose one shift and one hiding spot: a cave, behind a rainbow, under a bridge, below a waterfall, on a grassy field, or beside a ravine. After all shifts, it is revealed that the leprechaun on the grassy field found the four-leaf clover. Identify who found the clover and during which shift.

Use the chart to keep track of clues and eliminate possibilities.

Clues (assume all to be true):

• Aoife was busy polishing her lucky horseshoes from 4:00am-8:00pm.

• Cormac was on the shift right before Finnigan; Dahlia had a shift sometime after.

• The leprechaun who had a shift at 4:00pm spent their day under the bridge.

• Bram’s shift was directly between Finnigan and Dahlia.

• Finnigan likes to sleep until 12:00pm beside the ravine.

• Cormac and Evelyn were not in the cave or behind the rainbow. 

• The leprechaun who had the latest shift spent the morning at the rainbow. 

• Evelyn was never at the field. 

Answer Key:

• Aoife looked for the clover from 12:00am-4:00am near the cave.

• Bram looked for the clover from 4:00pm-8:00pm under the bridge.

• Cormac looked for the clover from 8:00am-12:00pm below the waterfall.
