Spencer, Stanford, I found it. I found a reagent which is specifically hit by human globin and by nothing else. Dr. Watford, Mr. Sherlock Holmes. How are you? How do you do? You've been in Afghanistan, I've been saying. How on earth do you know that, Mr. Holmes? Never mind.

It was many years ago, but I never forget that faithful meeting in the Barra-Plaire Bar Hospital. I was home from India, invaded out of the army and looking for lodgings and keeping with my pension. Holmes had just found a suite of rooms at number 221B Baker Street, and wanted someone to share them. I'd been warned, he might prove a strange companion. And so he did. I became more and more curious about him, and of course he quickly noticed it. I clucked up to that these few weeks have not proved to you that I am too difficult to tell a larger after all. I don't mind admitting you, puzzle me there. Puzzle you? Well the way you worked like a fiend sometimes, others you lie on the surface of the heart, the arting of word, or moving a muscle from morning to night.

And there's those curious visitors of yours. In one hour's noon, a grey-headed, CD-cellar looking like a peddler, then an old fighter gentleman, a fastened dressed young girl, and a railway porter. And that little cellar rat face cellar in the straight, who'd been here three times in a single week. But I always apologise for putting you to any inconvenience from the matter, Boston. I have to use this room as a place of business, and these people are my clients. Listen, what is it? No, man. You don't inconvenience me at all, I'm only two please. Thank you. But tell me, have your observations of me over these weeks reached any sum total yet? You might think it's a bit of a cheek, but I've been joking down a little bit about your point, from which you've shown me that you're exceptionally well informed. Indeed, I should put it a slight pick here, but you would. I've got the paper here somewhere, and... Ah, here it is.

You won't mind, really? Not at all. Well, it runs this way. Shall I come his limits? One, knowledge of literature, nil, two, knowledge of philosophy, nil, three, knowledge of astronomy, nil, knowledge of politics, people. Oh, you go on. Knowledge of butter, variable, well up in Beladana, opium and poison generally, there's nothing in practical gardening. Yeah, be. Knowledge of geology, practical, but limited. Tells of the glance, different soils from each other. After walks and sherm its stashes, one in stathers, and tell me that I color and consistency, what part of London needs to see them? Seven, knowledge of chemistry, profound. Eight, knowledge of anatomy, accurate, but unsystematic. Nine, knowledge of sensational literature, immense. Here, tell us in every detail of every horror, perfect picture in the century. Ten, phase, violin.

Well, thank you. Eleven is an expert, single-stick player, boxer and swordsman. Twelve is a good practical knowledge, British law. Capital. Well, I suppose I better provide you with the answer to it all. You see, the theories of observation and deduction, which I have frequently expressed to you, are really extremely practical, so practical that I depend upon them for my bread and cheese. But how? Well, I have a trait of my own. I suppose I'm the only one in the world. I'm a consulting detective. Confusing the detective. Here in London, we have lots of government detectives and lots of private ones. When these fellows were at fault, they come to me and I managed to put them on the right scent. Oh, the straight is a well known detective. He got himself into a fog recently, over a four-year-old case, and that was what brought him here. I see. And these are the people. Oh, they're mostly sent on by private inquiry agencies. I listen to their story, they listen to my comments, and then I pocket my sea. But do you mean to say that without leaving your room, you can unravel some not-that-other-men can make nothing all?

I have a kind of intuition that way. Observation will be a second nature. You appear to be surprised when I told you on our first meeting that you had come from that gangster, too. My friend of reasoning ran thus. He has a gentleman of a medical type, but with the air of a military man, clearly an army doctor then. He just comes from the tropics. For his face is dark and that's not the natural tint of his skin, for his wrists are fair. He's undergone sharpness sickness, as his haggard face is clearly. His left arm has been injured. He holds it in a stiff and unnatural manner. Now, where in the tropics could an English army doctor have seen much hardship and carries arm wounded? Clearly, in that gunner's gun. The whole thing is thought to not to buy a second. Simple enough as you explain it. But home's I don't really think that- I say. Let's follow down the sea. I wonder what he's looking for. Oh, you mean the retard Sergeant of Marine?

Oh, now that really is going too far. Well, we shall see. He's coming to our door. You know, the trouble is what's in that there are no crimes and no criminals these days. What's the use of having brains in our profession? I know well that I haven't admit to make my name famous. No man lives or has ever lived who has brought the same amount of studying of natural talent to the detection of crime which I have done. And what's the result? There is no crime to detect or must some bungling villainy with a murderous her transperient that even a Scotland yard official can see through it. A person to see you Mr. Holmes. Oh, thank you Mr. Holmes. Come in. Little boy and for Mr. Sherlock Holmes. Thank you. Now, my good man wants to portray me being a commissioner sir. A uniform away from repairs. And you were Sergeant sir. Royal Marine Knight infantry sir.

No one. Good day gentlemen. Good day sir. Wish I'd bless. Now how in the world did you deduce that? Why even when he'd been down in the street I could see a brick, blue anchor tattered on the back of the fellow's hand. That's Mac over the sea. He had a military carriage however and regulation side whiskers. There we have the Marine. He was a man with some amount of self-importance and a certain heir of command. You must have observed the way when she held his head and spung his cane. A steady, respectable middle aged man too on the face of him. All facts which led me to believe that he had been the sergeant. It wasn't the common place. But I said just now that there were no criminals. It appears that I'm wrong. It's a bit. Would you mind reading it to me alive? What does that have?

My dear Mr. Sherlock Holmes. There has been a bad business during the night at 3. It's Paul and America to make it count. At the Ram Drive-in to Paul Sales Event.

Man on the beach saw light there about two in the morning and there's the house. The house was covered with a roof, a roof, a roof, a roof, a roof, a roof, a roof, a roof, a roof, a roof, a roof, a roof, a roof, a roof, a roof, a roof.

The blood in the room, there's no wonder for this person. We're as a losses to how he came into the empty house. Indeed, the whole house is a puzzler. If you can come round to the house anytime before 12, you'll find me there. You're faceless. To bars, grids, and... Grids, and there's the smartest of the Scotland Yarders. He illustrated a pick of a bad lot. They have been nice into one another too. There is jealous as a pair of professional beauties. There would be some fun over this case of their boat, but above the same. As soon as it's in the moment to be lost. So I go and order you a cab? My dear, fellow, what does it matter to me? Supposing I am rabble, the whole matter. You may be sure that Gregson, the straight-and-tell, will pocket all the credit. You're a hell-beard. Yes. He knows that I'm his superior and acknowledges it to me. But he'd cut his tongue out before he'd only 23rd person. However, when he was well-go and had a look, I saw work it out on my own, folks. I may have a laugh at the bit if I had nothing else. Come on, get your hat. You wish me to come.

Yes. If you have nothing better to do. Let me. Here you are, Kevin. Thank you, sir. I must say, you've never been doing much thought matters in hand. You know, I've been talking about criminal fiddles and the difference between the study values and the neuromarktia. No data yet. It's a capital mistake to theorize before you have all the evidence. Well, have your data soon. Aren't we going in? All in good time, what's this? Let us first observe such important details as the roadway. Hmm. Good pavement. And the grass fringe. Oh, yes. That is interesting. Mr. Holmes, it's very kind of you to come.

Inspector Gregson, this is my friend Dr. Watson. How do you do? I've had everything we've done touched, except the pathway after the house. If I heard of buffaloes and pastelong, there couldn't be a greater mess. No doubt, however, you had drawn your own conclusions before you permitted it. Well, I've had so much to do inside the house, Mr. Holmes. My colleague Mr. Lestrade is here. I'd rely upon him to look after the path, with too much men as yourself and Lestrade upon the ground. There will not be much for a third party to find out. Well, I think we've done all the can be done. If I queer case, though, and well, I know your taste for those things, you can hear me, Captain. No, sir. Did Lestrade? No, sir. Then let us go and look at the room. Good morning, Mr. Holmes. Good morning, Lestrade. I think you've met Dr. Watson. Of course, it's all rules. Yeah, that rules. This case will make us do this, sir. He's done anything I've seen, and I'm no chicken.

You found no clue? No, not at all. Hmm. You're sure there's no wound, but it's patch is a blad all over the place, positive. And of course, this blad belongs to a second individual. Because you are a better murderer, if murder has been committed. It reminds me of the circumstances that tend to number death of onions in a new trap. You remember the case, Captain? A noza? Read it up. You really should. There's nothing new under the sun. It's all been done before. Do you want to examine the party, sir? Yes, sir. Just a quick look, I think. Hmm. Yeah. Who's? Hmm. Well, that seems to be all. Just a sniff at his lips. And the glance of the souls, these paintings, never boots. Yeah. Well, I think I've seen everything I need to see.

He's not been moved at all. No more than was necessary for the purposes of our examination. Then you can take into the modulate. There's nothing more to be learned. Right. Now, look at this picture. Oh, I'll give it to you. Hello? What's that? It's a ring. There's been a woman here. It's a woman's mini ring. Well, this does complicate matters. If you know they were complicate enough before, your show doesn't simplify them. Simplify? More I didn't name away. Yes, sir. Come, come, Jake. There's nothing to be learned by staring at the ring. But did you find this pocket? Go watch and shame. Go ring with a Masonic device. Go pin, blow those hair with the movie's eyes. Cars of inoxicabraber of Cleveland, corresponding to the eJD upon the linen. No, first, but loose money to the extent of 7, 13 shillings. Oh, and two letters. One of them is to eJabraber and one to Joseph Stangerson. At what address?

A militant exchange, a trend to be left till call for. They are both from the Guillaume Steenship Company and refer to the sale of their belts from Liverpool to New York. Have you made any inquiries as to the Stangerson? I did it once, sir. I've had a belt sent to all the newspapers and one of my men is going to the American exchange, but he has not just returned. Have you sent to Cleveland? We're getting ready for the snorning. How did you word your inquiries? We simply detailed the circumstances and said that we should be clear of any information that could help us. You didn't ask for particular's on any point which appeared to you to be crucial. I asked about Stangerson. Nothing else. Is there no circumstances upon which this full case appears to hinge? Will you not telegraph again? I fiddle, I have to say, with the homes. With the greek son. I have just made a discovery of my highest importance. A one which would have been overlooked, so I have not made a careful examination of the walls. Oh, Mr. LeSleid. And what is it? Look here, on this wall. I understand that. I'll strike a match. Look at that.

What did it say? I can't quite see. R-A-C-H-E. Rates? What do you think of that? The murder has written it that he's all her own blood. You see this male, but it's tickled down the wall. That disposes of the idea of suicide anyhow. Why was that, former, chosen to write it on? I'll tell you. You see that candle on the mantle piece? It was lit at the time, and if it was lit, this corner would be the brightest, instead of the darkest portion of the wall. And what has it been? Now, the hair found it. Why? It means that the writer was going to put the female name Rachel. But was disturbed before he or she had time to finish it. You, Mark Bywards, when this case comes to be clearer, you'll find that the woman made Rachel a funny little dude. All the wealth you'd allow for the Sherlock Holmes to fit. You may be, but he's smart and clever. But the old round is the best when all of a sudden done. I really beg your pardon, to say. You certainly have the credit of being the first of us to find the third. And as you say, there's a remark of having been written by the other participants in our third mystery.

I have not had talent for the exam in this room yet, but for the upper mission I should have said now. Now...

I think that's all do. 20 minutes, I took you with my phones. I could have spread to the troubling vibe. They say that genius is an infinite capacity of taking pains. It's a very bad definition, but it does apply to detectives. What do you think of this? Oh, it would be robbing you of the credit of the case if I were to presume to help you. You're doing so well now that it would be a pity if I only wanted to fear. If you let me know how your investigations go, I thought they had to give you any help, I can.

In the meantime, I should like to speak to the customer who found the body, isn't he? Oh, he's off duty now. Then can you give me his name and address? Yes, his name is John Ratz. Then you'll find him at 46, all recorded, Kenneth and Park Gate. Kenneth and Park Gate. Thank you. Come along, Doctor. We should go and lock him up. Oh, gentlemen. I'll tell you one thing which may help you in the case. What's better? There have been murder done, and the murderer was a man. He was more than 65, was in the prime of life, had small feet for his height, wore cross-square-fair boots, and smirked a twitching up later. He claimed here that he's victim in the four-wheeled cab, which was drawn by a horse, the three old shoes, and one new one on his off-fall leg. In all probability, the murderer had a florted face, and the fingernails of his right hand were remarkably long. These were only a few indications,

but they may have existed. If this man was murder, how was it done? Poison. Oh, one other being the state. This don't waste your time looking for misracial. Rafa is the German for revenge. Come along, Doctor. I have a telegram to send. I'm coming home. Now that I've sent my telegram, we can go and see this comfortable John Rents. You think you'll be able to help us? There's nothing like first-hand evidence. There's a matter to take my mind, as entirely made up on the case. But still, we may as well learn all that is better. You may as well, surely your mother sure as you pretend to be of all this particular you gave? There's no room for him to stay. The very first thing which I've done on the writing there was that a cab had made two ruts

with its wheels, less of the curb. Now, up to last night, we've had no rain for a week, so that those wheels, which less such a deep impression, must have been dead during the night. There were the marks of the horses hoofs, too. The outline of one of which was far more clearly cut than death of the other three, showing that that was a new shoe. Since the cab was there after the rain began, and was not there at any time during the morning, I have vaccines worth of that. It follows that it must have been dead during the night, and therefore that it brought us two individuals to the house. Well, that seems simple enough, but how about the other man's sight? Why the height of a man in nine cases out of ten can be told by the length of his tribe? It's a simple calculation enough that there's no use mind boring you with figures. I had this fellow's tribe both on the clay outside and on the dust within, then I had a way of checking my calculations. When a man writes on the wall, he instantly seems to write about the level of his own eyes. Now, that writing was just over six feet from the ground.

There's child's leg. And he's aged? Well, the pronounced and striped form a half feet without the smallest effort he could have to fight in the sear and yellow. That was the breadth of a puddle on the garden path that she had evidently walked across. Patent leather boots had gone round, and square toes had stepped over. There's no mystery about it at all. I'm simply applying to ordinary life a few of those precepts of observation and deduction which I advocated in the classical panthariga. Is there anything else to pose of you? Well, the fingernails and the twitching opaliers have gone. The writing of the wall was done with a man's forefinger, dipped in blood. My glass of ladenit observed that the plaster was flat, scratched and doing it, which would not have been the case had the man's nail been trimmed. I gathered up some scat and ash from the floor. It was dark in color and flaky, such an ash as is only made by a pritchinotally. I did a special study of cigar ashes.

In fact, I've written a monograph upon the subject. Here, I've said to myself that I can distinguish at a glance the ash of any known brand, either a cigar or a tobacco. It's just in such details that the skills detect different from the grapes in the straight type. And the floret face them. Ah, that's the more daring shot. Though I've known that I was right. You mustn't ask me that to see a pritchinotally affair. My head's in a whirl. The moment thinks with the moment, the stereotype grows. How came these two men, if they were two men, into an empty house? How could one man compel another to take poison? Where did the blood come from? What was the object of the murderer since robbery had no part in it? How came the woman's ring there? And above all, a fight of the second men, right up the German word, a rocker before the champion. I confess, and I can't see any possible way of reconciling all these facts. You sum up the difficulties of the situation, succinctly and well, Watson.

There is much that is still obscure. Though I've quite made up my mind on the main fact, just to pull a straight, to discover, to simply have blind intended to put the police upon the wrong track, by suggesting socialism and secret societies. It was not done by a German. If you noticed, the A was printed somewhat after the German fashion. Now, a real German invented the print symbol Latin character. So we may safely say that this was not written by one, but by a clumsy imitator who overdid his part. Or no. The simply aroused, to divert inquiry into a wrong channel. I'm not going to tell you much more, but case doctor, you know, a conjurer gets the credits, but once he's explained to trick, and if I show you too much of my method of working, you'll come for the conclusion that I'm a very ordinary individual after all. Oh, I've never done that. You have built the Texaners near to an exact scientist that ever will be brought in this world. I'll tell you one other thing.

Patent letters and square toes came in the same cab. They walked down the pathway together as friendly as possible. Wow, I'm in arm in all probability. When they got inside, they walked up and down the room. Or other Patents letters stood still while square toes walked up and down. I could read all that in the past, and I could read that as he walked, he grew more and more excited. That showed the increased length of this tribe. He was talking over the island, working himself up to the edge of the earth in the field. Then the tragedy occurred. Well, I've shown you all I know myself. For the rest is near some eyes and conjecture. We have a good working basis, however, with the stars. And now we met Hari, who had particularly wanted to visit Constable Rents and Killington. Let's go find a cab.

Yes, what is it? You are Constable Rents. What are we doing? My name is Sherlock Holmes. Inspector LeStrade said I could find you here. It's about the business at Larrison Gardens, Brixton Road. I'm very, very poor at the office. Come on, man, get a bit of rest when you're off duty. We thought that we should like to hear it all from your own lips. Well, I should be most happy to tell you anything I can. I'm sorry, sir. Come in, Jents. Thank you. Did you down on the self-agents? No, no. Now, what was it? Just as it's yet it all in your own, where is it occurred, please? Very well. Well, my time is from 10 at night till 6 in the morning. At 11, there was a fight at the White Art, but barf that wall was quiet enough on the beat. But, uh, one o'clock it began to rain.

Now, I met Barry Merth, true, at the Holland Grove, big. We stood together at the corner and we had a street at Torquin. Oh, presently, uh, maybe about two or a little after. I thought I'd take a look around and see that all was right down the Brixton Road. Whose precious dirty and lonely, not a soul, they don't meet all the way down there. But, uh, though, the caber too went past me. Oh, sir, a strolling down there, thinking between ourselves, our uncommon and the afforded you not would be, uh, when, uh, when suddenly, the blink of the light caught my eye in the window of that same house. Now, by you, the them two houses in Lodeston Garden was empty, on account of them that owned them out at the drain scene too, though the very last ten of the lived in one of them died a tight-forward fever. So, uh, I was knocked all in the heat, but seen a light in the window,

and I suspected that something was wrong when I got to the door. Do I stop and then walk back to the garden gate? Was it you do that for what? Well, that's true, sir, I did, though. Oh, you come to know it. Have no no, sir. What you watching? No, no, no. There you go, I'll learn from my question. When you get your seat, when I got up to the door, you were so still and so loathe, and I thought I'd been on the worst for someone with me. I ain't a fear of anything on this side of the grave, but I thought that maybe it was him that died of a tight-forward, inspecting the drains, what killed him. Oh, well, uh, I thought, gave me that kind of turn. I walked back to the gate to see if I could see Welch's lantern, but there was no sign of him, nor of anyone else. There was no one in the seat, not a living soldier. Right, pulled himself together, went back and pushed the door open. War was quiet inside, though I went into the room where the light was a burning.

There was a candle flickering on the mental face, a red wax one, a light side, a festival. Yes, I know all that you saw. You walk around the room several times, and you knelt down by the body, and then you walked through and climbed the kitchen door, and then... Where would you hit to see all that? Seems to be that you know that good deal more than your short. Here's my card. There don't get a resting knee for the murder. I am one of the hounds, not the wolf. Little Greg's not a little stable answer to that. Go on there, what did you do in Nengar? Went back to the gate and saw an enemy whistle, or that brought Welch and two more in the spot. But the speed until then... Well... Was as far as anybody that could be a very good dose. What do you mean? I've seen many drunk chaff in my car. I've never seen anyone so drunk as that coach. He was at the gate when I came out. He needed up against the railings and I was singing at a picture of his lungs about

Columbine's newfangled battle and some such stuff. What's all of the name watching? Common drug sort of man. He'd have found himself at the station if we had been to Tukap. He'd face his dress, didn't you know just the embarshoot? I think I did notice him, seeing the guy to pop him up. He was a mature between us. He was a long chap, a red face, a lower part muscle, round, devilish. What became of it? You have to do that, looking after him. No way, three of them found his way, I'm alright. How was he dressed? Had he a whip in his hand? A whip? No. He must have left it behind. You didn't happen to see a hair cap after that? No. Well, there's half a sovereign for you. Oh. Thank you, sir. I'm afraid, Brent, that you will never rise in the force. That head of yours should be for use as well as all of them. You might have gained your sergeant stripes last night,

the man whom you held in your hand is the man who holds the clue to this mystery and who we are seeking. But I tell you. There's no use arguing about it now. I tell you that it is, sir. Come along, doctor. Two to one, D. Baker, see, tell it. Go, go. The numbering fool. Just to think of it, having such an incomparable bit of good luck, I'm not taking advantage of it. Holmes, I'm bothering the dark still. It's true that the description of this man tell us the idea of the second part in this mystery. But why should he come back to the house after leaving you? To ring, man, the ring. That was what he came back for. If we have no other way of catching him, we can all be with Baker, lying to the ring. I shall have him, doctor.

I lay you two to one that I have him. I must take you for it all. Me? I might have a gun, but for you. And so, Mr. Finest, study, I ever came across. A study in Scarlet.
