Isadora shivers at the thought of visiting the house.
"An isolated ruined homestead? Clandestine laboratory? This sounds potentially dangerous..."
If there are no janitors or non-Investigators around, she whispers: "We need to bring... weapons."
"And wear sensible clothes..."

"My thoughts exactly," Alice whispers back. "I still have my shotgun, and a nice pair of boots."

"Unfortunately, there isn't enough time for me to go home and get that strange alien weapon we found in Vermont...
"So where can this house be? If West was a student here, then perhaps there are records about his address at the office? And if there was a fire at the house some years ago, maybe it got into the papers?"

"I have my father's handgun that I could bring. Harrison confides and then smiles despite the gravity of the situation. "And I always wear sensible clothes." He continues, "And if he owned the home, we could do property records search for any homes owned by West or his family."

Re: Chapter 6: Who is Claude Owen?
"Yes, that's a good idea," says Alice. "We could search through the periodicals to find out where the fire was, or maybe Dr. Bricknell would know. We should keep him informed in any case." She continues looking through the notes.

Harrison will check the drawers on both desks and the bureau and search through the wardrobe before he continues shifting through the notes trying to make sense of what Owen has done.

Not having much luck with the notes, Alice returns to the room to see if there's anything she missed when Harrison takes his turn looking through them.

Re: Chapter 6: Who is Claude Owen?
As the afternoon drags on and the sun begins to sink lower in the winter sky, Harrison manages to find another vital clue amongst the often nonsensical ramblings in the notes, which he shares.
It appears that these thoughts were transcribed a short time after the humiliation suffered by Owen at the hands of Frank Charlton. Owen recounts at length his anger and rage at the mocking Charlton visited upon him after his attempt to join the bohemian set. He particularly focuses on the shame he felt in the presence of Asenath Derby, whom he so desperately wanted to impress.
Full of bile and hatred, the note curses Frank Charlton and plots Owen’s revenge. He plans to kill Charlton, and then reanimate him, with the purpose of killing him again, and again. This will prove to Asenath the power that Owen possesses. It is quite clear from the note that Owen is not of sound mind, at least when he wrote it.

Isadora is shocked by the revelations of Owen's motive.
She tries to think, though, to get to the bottom of this all.
"Owen found the notes in the basement of the School of Medicine library. Perhaps there is additional information there? Alice, is it normal for students to deposit their notes at the alma mater?"

"Yes, it is common," says Alice. "Some students donate their notes and papers, but others just leave them behind because they don't want them any more, or because they forget about them. Let's see what else we can find there by Herbert West. We might uncover an address too."
