<s> FOR NEARLY TWO HOURS WE DROVE WITHOUT MY HAVING THE LEAST CLUE AS TO WHERE WE WERE GOING </s>
<s> SOMETIMES THE RATTLE OF THE STONES TOLD OF A PAVED CAUSEWAY AND AT OTHERS OUR SMOOTH SILENT COURSE SUGGESTED ASPHALT BUT SAVE BY THIS VARIATION IN SOUND THERE WAS NOTHING AT ALL WHICH COULD IN THE REMOTEST WAY HELP ME TO FORM A GUESS AS TO WHERE WE WERE </s>
<s> THE PAPER OVER EACH WINDOW WAS IMPENETRABLE TO LIGHT AND A BLUE CURTAIN WAS DRAWN ACROSS THE GLASSWORK IN FRONT </s>
<s> IT WAS A QUARTER PAST SEVEN WHEN WE LEFT PALL MALL AND MY WATCH SHOWED ME THAT IT WAS TEN MINUTES TO NINE WHEN WE AT LAST CAME TO A STANDSTILL </s>
<s> MY COMPANION LET DOWN THE WINDOW AND I CAUGHT A GLIMPSE OF A LOW ARCHED DOORWAY WITH A LAMP BURNING ABOVE IT </s>
<s> AS I WAS HURRIED FROM THE CARRIAGE IT SWUNG OPEN AND I FOUND MYSELF INSIDE THE HOUSE WITH A VAGUE IMPRESSION OF A LAWN AND TREES ON EACH SIDE OF ME AS I ENTERED </s>
<s> WHETHER THESE WERE PRIVATE GROUNDS HOWEVER OR BONA FIDE COUNTRY WAS MORE THAN I COULD POSSIBLY VENTURE TO SAY </s>
<s> THERE WAS A COLOURED GAS LAMP INSIDE WHICH WAS TURNED SO LOW THAT I COULD SEE LITTLE SAVE THAT THE HALL WAS OF SOME SIZE AND HUNG WITH PICTURES </s>
<s> IN THE DIM LIGHT I COULD MAKE OUT THAT THE PERSON WHO HAD OPENED THE DOOR WAS A SMALL MEAN LOOKING MIDDLE AGED MAN WITH ROUNDED SHOULDERS </s>
<s> AS HE TURNED TOWARDS US THE GLINT OF THE LIGHT SHOWED ME THAT HE WAS WEARING GLASSES </s>
<s> IS THIS MR. MELAS HAROLD SAID HE </s>
<s> YES </s>
<s> QUOTE WELL DONE WELL DONE </s>
<s> NO ILL WILL MR. MELAS I HOPE BUT WE COULD NOT GET ON WITHOUT YOU </s>
<s> IF YOU DEAL FAIR WITH US YOU'LL NOT REGRET IT BUT IF YOU TRY ANY TRICKS GOD HELP YOU </s>
<s> HE SPOKE IN A NERVOUS JERKY FASHION AND WITH LITTLE GIGGLING LAUGHS IN BETWEEN BUT SOMEHOW HE IMPRESSED ME WITH FEAR MORE THAN THE OTHER </s>
<s> WHAT DO YOU WANT WITH ME </s>
<s> I ASKED </s>
<s> ONLY TO ASK A FEW QUESTIONS OF A GREEK GENTLEMAN WHO IS VISITING US AND TO LET US HAVE THE ANSWERS </s>
<s> BUT SAY NO MORE THAN YOU ARE TOLD TO SAY OR HERE CAME THE NERVOUS GIGGLE AGAIN YOU HAD BETTER NEVER HAVE BEEN BORN </s>
<s> AS HE SPOKE HE OPENED A DOOR AND SHOWED THE WAY INTO A ROOM WHICH APPEARED TO BE VERY RICHLY FURNISHED BUT AGAIN THE ONLY LIGHT WAS AFFORDED BY A SINGLE LAMP HALF TURNED DOWN </s>
<s> THE CHAMBER WAS CERTAINLY LARGE AND THE WAY IN WHICH MY FEET SANK INTO THE CARPET AS I STEPPED ACROSS IT TOLD ME OF ITS RICHNESS </s>
<s> I CAUGHT GLIMPSES OF VELVET CHAIRS A HIGH WHITE MARBLE MANTELPIECE AND WHAT SEEMED TO BE A SUIT OF JAPANESE ARMOUR AT ONE SIDE OF IT </s>
<s> THERE WAS A CHAIR JUST UNDER THE LAMP AND THE ELDERLY MAN MOTIONED THAT I SHOULD SIT IN IT </s>
<s> THE YOUNGER HAD LEFT US BUT HE SUDDENLY RETURNED THROUGH ANOTHER DOOR LEADING WITH HIM A GENTLEMAN CLAD IN SOME SORT OF LOOSE DRESSING GOWN WHO MOVED SLOWLY TOWARDS US </s>
<s> AS HE CAME INTO THE CIRCLE OF DIM LIGHT WHICH ENABLED ME TO SEE HIM MORE CLEARLY I WAS THRILLED WITH HORROR AT HIS APPEARANCE </s>
<s> HE WAS DEADLY PALE AND TERRIBLY EMACIATED WITH THE PROTRUDING BRILLIANT EYES OF A MAN WHOSE SPIRIT WAS GREATER THAN HIS STRENGTH </s>
<s> BUT WHAT SHOCKED ME MORE THAN ANY SIGNS OF PHYSICAL WEAKNESS WAS THAT HIS FACE WAS GROTESQUELY CRISS CROSSED WITH STICKING PLASTER AND THAT ONE LARGE PAD OF IT WAS FASTENED OVER HIS MOUTH </s>
<s> HAVE YOU THE SLATE HAROLD CRIED THE OLDER MAN AS THIS STRANGE BEING FELL RATHER THAN SAT DOWN INTO A CHAIR </s>
<s> ARE HIS HANDS LOOSE </s>
<s> NOW THEN GIVE HIM THE PENCIL </s>
<s> YOU ARE TO ASK THE QUESTIONS MR. MELAS AND HE WILL WRITE THE ANSWERS </s>
<s> ASK HIM FIRST OF ALL WHETHER HE IS PREPARED TO SIGN THE PAPERS </s>
<s> QUOTE THE MAN'S EYES FLASHED FIRE </s>
<s> NEVER HE WROTE IN GREEK UPON THE SLATE </s>
<s> ON NO CONDITIONS </s>
<s> I ASKED AT THE BIDDING OF OUR TYRANT </s>
<s> ONLY IF I SEE HER MARRIED IN MY PRESENCE BY A GREEK PRIEST WHOM I KNOW </s>
<s> THE MAN GIGGLED IN HIS VENOMOUS WAY </s>
<s> YOU KNOW WHAT AWAITS YOU THEN </s>
<s> QUOTE I CARE NOTHING FOR MYSELF </s>
<s> THESE ARE SAMPLES OF THE QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS WHICH MADE UP OUR STRANGE HALF SPOKEN HALF WRITTEN CONVERSATION </s>
<s> AGAIN AND AGAIN I HAD TO ASK HIM WHETHER HE WOULD GIVE IN AND SIGN THE DOCUMENTS </s>
<s> AGAIN AND AGAIN I HAD THE SAME INDIGNANT REPLY </s>
<s> BUT SOON A HAPPY THOUGHT CAME TO ME </s>
<s> I TOOK TO ADDING ON LITTLE SENTENCES OF MY OWN TO EACH QUESTION INNOCENT ONES AT FIRST TO TEST WHETHER EITHER OF OUR COMPANIONS KNEW ANYTHING OF THE MATTER AND THEN AS I FOUND THAT THEY SHOWED NO SIGN I PLAYED A MORE DANGEROUS GAME </s>
<s> OUR CONVERSATION RAN SOMETHING LIKE THIS </s>
<s> YOU CAN DO NO GOOD BY THIS OBSTINACY </s>
<s> WHO ARE YOU </s>
<s> I CARE NOT </s>
<s> I AM A STRANGER IN LONDON </s>
<s> YOUR FATE WILL BE ON YOUR OWN HEAD </s>
<s> HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN HERE </s>
<s> LET IT BE SO </s>
<s> THREE WEEKS </s>
<s> QUOTE THE PROPERTY CAN NEVER BE YOURS </s>
<s> WHAT AILS YOU </s>
<s> IT SHALL NOT GO TO VILLAINS </s>
<s> THEY ARE STARVING ME </s>
<s> YOU SHALL GO FREE IF YOU SIGN </s>
<s> WHAT HOUSE IS THIS </s>
<s> I WILL NEVER SIGN </s>
<s> I DO NOT KNOW </s>
<s> YOU ARE NOT DOING HER ANY SERVICE </s>
<s> WHAT IS YOUR NAME </s>
<s> LET ME HEAR HER SAY SO </s>
<s> KRATIDES </s>
<s> QUOTE YOU SHALL SEE HER IF YOU SIGN </s>
<s> WHERE ARE YOU FROM </s>
<s> THEN I SHALL NEVER SEE HER </s>
<s> ATHENS </s>
<s> ANOTHER FIVE MINUTES MR. HOLMES AND I SHOULD HAVE WORMED OUT THE WHOLE STORY UNDER THEIR VERY NOSES </s>
<s> MY VERY NEXT QUESTION MIGHT HAVE CLEARED THE MATTER UP BUT AT THAT INSTANT THE DOOR OPENED AND A WOMAN STEPPED INTO THE ROOM </s>
<s> I COULD NOT SEE HER CLEARLY ENOUGH TO KNOW MORE THAN THAT SHE WAS TALL AND GRACEFUL WITH BLACK HAIR AND CLAD IN SOME SORT OF LOOSE WHITE GOWN </s>
<s> HAROLD SAID SHE SPEAKING ENGLISH WITH A BROKEN ACCENT </s>
<s> I COULD NOT STAY AWAY LONGER </s>
<s> IT IS SO LONELY UP THERE WITH ONLY OH MY GOD IT IS PAUL </s>
<s> THESE LAST WORDS WERE IN GREEK AND AT THE SAME INSTANT THE MAN WITH A CONVULSIVE EFFORT TORE THE PLASTER FROM HIS LIPS AND SCREAMING OUT SOPHY </s>
<s> SOPHY RUSHED INTO THE WOMAN'S ARMS </s>
<s> THEIR EMBRACE WAS BUT FOR AN INSTANT HOWEVER FOR THE YOUNGER MAN SEIZED THE WOMAN AND PUSHED HER OUT OF THE ROOM WHILE THE ELDER EASILY OVERPOWERED HIS EMACIATED VICTIM AND DRAGGED HIM AWAY THROUGH THE OTHER DOOR </s>
<s> FOR A MOMENT I WAS LEFT ALONE IN THE ROOM AND I SPRANG TO MY FEET WITH SOME VAGUE IDEA THAT I MIGHT IN SOME WAY GET A CLUE TO WHAT THIS HOUSE WAS IN WHICH I FOUND MYSELF </s>
<s> FORTUNATELY HOWEVER I TOOK NO STEPS FOR LOOKING UP I SAW THAT THE OLDER MAN WAS STANDING IN THE DOORWAY WITH HIS EYES FIXED UPON ME </s>
<s> THAT WILL DO MR. MELAS SAID HE </s>
<s> YOU PERCEIVE THAT WE HAVE TAKEN YOU INTO OUR CONFIDENCE OVER SOME VERY PRIVATE BUSINESS </s>
<s> WE SHOULD NOT HAVE TROUBLED YOU ONLY THAT OUR FRIEND WHO SPEAKS GREEK AND WHO BEGAN THESE NEGOTIATIONS HAS BEEN FORCED TO RETURN TO THE EAST </s>
<s> IT WAS QUITE NECESSARY FOR US TO FIND SOMEONE TO TAKE HIS PLACE AND WE WERE FORTUNATE IN HEARING OF YOUR POWERS </s>
<s> QUOTE I BOWED </s>
<s> THERE ARE FIVE SOVEREIGNS HERE SAID HE WALKING UP TO ME WHICH WILL I HOPE BE A SUFFICIENT FEE </s>
<s> BUT REMEMBER HE ADDED TAPPING ME LIGHTLY ON THE CHEST AND GIGGLING IF YOU SPEAK TO A HUMAN SOUL ABOUT THIS ONE HUMAN SOUL MIND WELL MAY GOD HAVE MERCY UPON YOUR SOUL </s>
<s> I CANNOT TELL YOU THE LOATHING AND HORROR WITH WHICH THIS INSIGNIFICANT LOOKING MAN INSPIRED ME </s>
<s> I COULD SEE HIM BETTER NOW AS THE LAMP LIGHT SHONE UPON HIM </s>
<s> HIS FEATURES WERE PEAKY AND SALLOW AND HIS LITTLE POINTED BEARD WAS THREADY AND ILLNOURISHED </s>
<s> HE PUSHED HIS FACE FORWARD AS HE SPOKE AND HIS LIPS AND EYELIDS WERE CONTINUALLY TWITCHING LIKE A MAN WITH SAINT VITUS'S DANCE </s>
<s> I COULD NOT HELP THINKING THAT HIS STRANGE CATCHY LITTLE LAUGH WAS ALSO A SYMPTOM OF SOME NERVOUS MALADY </s>
<s> THE TERROR OF HIS FACE LAY IN HIS EYES HOWEVER STEEL GRAY AND GLISTENING COLDLY WITH A MALIGNANT INEXORABLE CRUELTY IN THEIR DEPTHS </s>
<s> WE SHALL KNOW IF YOU SPEAK OF THIS SAID HE </s>
<s> WE HAVE OUR OWN MEANS OF INFORMATION </s>
<s> NOW YOU WILL FIND THE CARRIAGE WAITING AND MY FRIEND WILL SEE YOU ON YOUR WAY </s>
<s> I WAS HURRIED THROUGH THE HALL AND INTO THE VEHICLE AGAIN OBTAINING THAT MOMENTARY GLIMPSE OF TREES AND A GARDEN </s>
<s> MR. LATIMER FOLLOWED CLOSELY AT MY HEELS AND TOOK HIS PLACE OPPOSITE TO ME WITHOUT A WORD </s>
<s> IN SILENCE WE AGAIN DROVE FOR AN INTERMINABLE DISTANCE WITH THE WINDOWS RAISED UNTIL AT LAST JUST AFTER MIDNIGHT THE CARRIAGE PULLED UP </s>
<s> YOU WILL GET DOWN HERE MR. MELAS SAID MY COMPANION </s>
<s> I AM SORRY TO LEAVE YOU SO FAR FROM YOUR HOUSE BUT THERE IS NO ALTERNATIVE </s>
<s> ANY ATTEMPT UPON YOUR PART TO FOLLOW THE CARRIAGE CAN ONLY END IN INJURY TO YOURSELF </s>
<s> QUOTE HE OPENED THE DOOR AS HE SPOKE AND I HAD HARDLY TIME TO SPRING OUT WHEN THE COACHMAN LASHED THE HORSE AND THE CARRIAGE RATTLED AWAY </s>
<s> I LOOKED AROUND ME IN ASTONISHMENT </s>
<s> I WAS ON SOME SORT OF A HEATHY COMMON MOTTLED OVER WITH DARK CLUMPS OF FURZE BUSHES </s>
<s> FAR AWAY STRETCHED A LINE OF HOUSES WITH A LIGHT HERE AND THERE IN THE UPPER WINDOWS </s>
<s> ON THE OTHER SIDE I SAW THE RED SIGNAL LAMPS OF A RAILWAY </s>
<s> THE CARRIAGE WHICH HAD BROUGHT ME WAS ALREADY OUT OF SIGHT </s>
<s> I STOOD GAZING ROUND AND WONDERING WHERE ON EARTH I MIGHT BE WHEN I SAW SOMEONE COMING TOWARDS ME IN THE DARKNESS </s>
<s> AS HE CAME UP TO ME I MADE OUT THAT HE WAS A RAILWAY PORTER </s>
<s> CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT PLACE THIS IS </s>
<s> I ASKED </s>
<s> WANDSWORTH COMMON SAID HE </s>
<s> CAN I GET A TRAIN INTO TOWN </s>
<s> IF YOU WALK ON A MILE OR SO TO CLAPHAM JUNCTION SAID HE YOU'LL JUST BE IN TIME FOR THE LAST TO VICTORIA </s>
<s> QUOTE SO THAT WAS THE END OF MY ADVENTURE MR. HOLMES </s>
<s> I DO NOT KNOW WHERE I WAS NOR WHOM I SPOKE WITH NOR ANYTHING SAVE WHAT I HAVE TOLD YOU </s>
<s> BUT I KNOW THAT THERE IS FOUL PLAY GOING ON AND I WANT TO HELP THAT UNHAPPY MAN IF I CAN </s>
<s> I TOLD THE WHOLE STORY TO MR. MYCROFT HOLMES NEXT MORNING AND SUBSEQUENTLY TO THE POLICE </s>
<s> WE ALL SAT IN SILENCE FOR SOME LITTLE TIME AFTER LISTENING TO THIS EXTRAORDINARY NARRATIVE </s>
<s> THEN SHERLOCK LOOKED ACROSS AT HIS BROTHER </s>
<s> ANY STEPS HE ASKED </s>
<s> MYCROFT PICKED UP THE DAILY NEWS WHICH WAS LYING ON THE SIDE TABLE </s>
<s> ANYBODY SUPPLYING ANY INFORMATION AS TO THE WHERE ABOUTS OF A GREEK GENTLEMAN NAMED PAUL KRATIDES FROM ATHENS WHO IS UNABLE TO SPEAK ENGLISH WILL BE REWARDED </s>

<s> SOME OF MY MOST INTERESTING CASES HAVE COME TO ME IN THIS WAY THROUGH MYCROFT </s>
