<s> FIND AN ANSWER TO ALL THESE QUESTIONS AND YOU WILL HAVE DONE GOOD SERVICE FOR YOUR COUNTRY </s>
<s> WHY DO YOU NOT SOLVE IT YOURSELF MYCROFT </s>
<s> YOU CAN SEE AS FAR AS I </s>
<s> POSSIBLY SHERLOCK </s>
<s> BUT IT IS A QUESTION OF GETTING DETAILS </s>
<s> GIVE ME YOUR DETAILS AND FROM AN ARMCHAIR I WILL RETURN YOU AN EXCELLENT EXPERT OPINION </s>
<s> BUT TO RUN HERE AND RUN THERE TO CROSS QUESTION RAILWAY GUARDS AND LIE ON MY FACE WITH A LENS TO MY EYE IT IS NOT MY METIER </s>
<s> NO YOU ARE THE ONE MAN WHO CAN CLEAR THE MATTER UP </s>
<s> IF YOU HAVE A FANCY TO SEE YOUR NAME IN THE NEXT HONOURS LIST QUOTE </s>
<s> MY FRIEND SMILED AND SHOOK HIS HEAD </s>
<s> I PLAY THE GAME FOR THE GAME'S OWN SAKE SAID HE </s>
<s> BUT THE PROBLEM CERTAINLY PRESENTS SOME POINTS OF INTEREST AND I SHALL BE VERY PLEASED TO LOOK INTO IT </s>
<s> SOME MORE FACTS PLEASE </s>
<s> I HAVE JOTTED DOWN THE MORE ESSENTIAL ONES UPON THIS SHEET OF PAPER TOGETHER WITH A FEW ADDRESSES WHICH YOU WILL FIND OF SERVICE </s>
<s> THE ACTUAL OFFICIAL GUARDIAN OF THE PAPERS IS THE FAMOUS GOVERNMENT EXPERT SIR JAMES WALTER WHOSE DECORATIONS AND SUB TITLES FILL TWO LINES OF A BOOK OF REFERENCE </s>
<s> HE HAS GROWN GRAY IN THE SERVICE IS A GENTLEMAN A FAVOURED GUEST IN THE MOST EXALTED HOUSES AND ABOVE ALL A MAN WHOSE PATRIOTISM IS BEYOND SUSPICION </s>
<s> HE IS ONE OF TWO WHO HAVE A KEY OF THE SAFE </s>
<s> I MAY ADD THAT THE PAPERS WERE UNDOUBTEDLY IN THE OFFICE DURING WORKING HOURS ON MONDAY AND THAT SIR JAMES LEFT FOR LONDON ABOUT THREE O'CLOCK TAKING HIS KEY WITH HIM </s>
<s> HE WAS AT THE HOUSE OF ADMIRAL SINCLAIR AT BARCLAY SQUARE DURING THE WHOLE OF THE EVENING WHEN THIS INCIDENT OCCURRED </s>
<s> QUOTE HAS THE FACT BEEN VERIFIED QUOTE </s>
<s> YES HIS BROTHER COLONEL VALENTINE WALTER HAS TESTIFIED TO HIS DEPARTURE FROM WOOLWICH AND ADMIRAL SINCLAIR TO HIS ARRIVAL IN LONDON SO SIR JAMES IS NO LONGER A DIRECT FACTOR IN THE PROBLEM </s>
<s> WHO WAS THE OTHER MAN WITH A KEY </s>
<s> THE SENIOR CLERK AND DRAUGHTSMAN MR. SIDNEY JOHNSON </s>
<s> HE IS A MAN OF FORTY MARRIED WITH FIVE CHILDREN </s>
<s> HE IS A SILENT MOROSE MAN BUT HE HAS ON THE WHOLE AN EXCELLENT RECORD IN THE PUBLIC SERVICE </s>
<s> HE IS UNPOPULAR WITH HIS COLLEAGUES BUT A HARD WORKER </s>
<s> ACCORDING TO HIS OWN ACCOUNT CORROBORATED ONLY BY THE WORD OF HIS WIFE HE WAS AT HOME THE WHOLE OF MONDAY EVENING AFTER OFFICE HOURS AND HIS KEY HAS NEVER LEFT THE WATCH CHAIN UPON WHICH IT HANGS </s>
<s> TELL US ABOUT CADOGAN WEST </s>
<s> QUOTE HE HAS BEEN TEN YEARS IN THE SERVICE AND HAS DONE GOOD WORK </s>
<s> HE HAS THE REPUTATION OF BEING HOT HEADED AND IMPETUOUS BUT A STRAIGHT HONEST MAN </s>
<s> WE HAVE NOTHING AGAINST HIM </s>
<s> HE WAS NEXT TO SIDNEY JOHNSON IN THE OFFICE </s>
<s> HIS DUTIES BROUGHT HIM INTO DAILY PERSONAL CONTACT WITH THE PLANS </s>
<s> NO ONE ELSE HAD THE HANDLING OF THEM </s>
<s> WHO LOCKED THE PLANS UP THAT NIGHT </s>
<s> MR. SIDNEY JOHNSON THE SENIOR CLERK </s>
<s> WELL IT IS SURELY PERFECTLY CLEAR WHO TOOK THEM AWAY </s>
<s> THEY ARE ACTUALLY FOUND UPON THE PERSON OF THIS JUNIOR CLERK CADOGAN WEST </s>
<s> THAT SEEMS FINAL DOES IT NOT </s>
<s> QUOTE IT DOES SHERLOCK AND YET IT LEAVES SO MUCH UNEXPLAINED </s>
<s> IN THE FIRST PLACE WHY DID HE TAKE THEM </s>
<s> I PRESUME THEY WERE OF VALUE </s>
<s> HE COULD HAVE GOT SEVERAL THOUSANDS FOR THEM VERY EASILY </s>
<s> CAN YOU SUGGEST ANY POSSIBLE MOTIVE FOR TAKING THE PAPERS TO LONDON EXCEPT TO SELL THEM </s>
<s> NO I CANNOT </s>
<s> QUOTE THEN WE MUST TAKE THAT AS OUR WORKING HYPOTHESIS </s>
<s> YOUNG WEST TOOK THE PAPERS </s>
<s> NOW THIS COULD ONLY BE DONE BY HAVING A FALSE KEY </s>
<s> SEVERAL FALSE KEYS </s>
<s> HE HAD TO OPEN THE BUILDING AND THE ROOM </s>
<s> HE HAD THEN SEVERAL FALSE KEYS </s>
<s> HE TOOK THE PAPERS TO LONDON TO SELL THE SECRET INTENDING NO DOUBT TO HAVE THE PLANS THEMSELVES BACK IN THE SAFE NEXT MORNING BEFORE THEY WERE MISSED </s>
<s> WHILE IN LONDON ON THIS TREASONABLE MISSION HE MET HIS END </s>
<s> QUOTE HOW QUOTE </s>
<s> WE WILL SUPPOSE THAT HE WAS TRAVELLING BACK TO WOOLWICH WHEN HE WAS KILLED AND THROWN OUT OF THE COMPARTMENT </s>
<s> ALDGATE WHERE THE BODY WAS FOUND IS CONSIDERABLY PAST THE STATION FOR LONDON BRIDGE WHICH WOULD BE HIS ROUTE TO WOOLWICH </s>
<s> MANY CIRCUMSTANCES COULD BE IMAGINED UNDER WHICH HE WOULD PASS LONDON BRIDGE </s>
<s> THERE WAS SOMEONE IN THE CARRIAGE FOR EXAMPLE WITH WHOM HE WAS HAVITLG AN ABSORBING INTERVIEW </s>
<s> THIS INTERVIEW LED TO A VIOLENT SCENE IN WHICH HE LOST HIS LIFE </s>
<s> POSSIBLY HE TRIED TO LEAVE THE CARRIAGE FELL OUT ON THE LINE AND SO MET HIS END </s>
<s> THE OTHER CLOSED THE DOOR </s>
<s> THERE WAS A THICK FOG AND NOTHING COULD BE SEEN </s>
<s> NO BETTER EXPLANATION CAN BE GIVEN WITH OUR PRESENT KNOWLEDGE AND YET CONSIDER SHERLOCK HOW MUCH YOU LEAVE UNTOUCHED </s>
<s> WE WILL SUPPOSE FOR ARGUMENT'S SAKE THAT YOUNG CADOGAN WEST HAD DETERMINED TO CONVEY THESE PAPERS TO LONDON </s>
<s> HE WOULD NATURALLY HAVE MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE FOREIGN AGENT AND KEPT HIS EVENING CLEAR </s>
<s> INSTEAD OF THAT HE TOOK TWO TICKETS FOR THE THEATRE ESCORTED HIS FIANCEE HALFWAY THERE AND THEN SUDDENLY DISAPPEARED QUOTE </s>
<s> A BLIND SAID LESTRADE WHO HAD SAT LISTENING WITH SOME IMPATIENCE TO THE CONVERSATION </s>
<s> A VERY SINGULAR ONE </s>
<s> THAT IS OBJECTION NUMBER ONE </s>
<s> OBJECTION NUMBER TWO WE WILL SUPPOSE THAT HE REACHES LONDON AND SEES THE FOREIGN AGENT </s>
<s> HE MUST BRING BACK THE PAPERS BEFORE MORNING OR THE LOSS WILL BE DISCOVERED </s>
<s> HE TOOK AWAY TEN </s>
<s> ONLY SEVEN WERE IN HIS POCKET </s>
<s> WHAT HAD BECOME OF THE OTHER THREE </s>
<s> HE CERTAINLY WOULD NOT LEAVE THEM OF HIS OWN FREE WILL </s>
<s> THEN AGAIN WHERE IS THE PRICE OF HIS TREASON </s>
<s> ONE WOULD HAVE EXPECTED TO FIND A LARGE SUM OF MONEY IN HIS POCKET </s>
<s> IT SEEMS TO ME PERFECTLY CLEAR SAID LESTRADE </s>
<s> I HAVE NO DOUBT AT ALL AS TO WHAT OCCURRED </s>
<s> HE TOOK THE PAPERS TO SELL THEM </s>
<s> HE SAW THE AGENT </s>
<s> THEY COULD NOT AGREE AS TO PRICE </s>
<s> HE STARTED HOME AGAIN BUT THE AGENT WENT WITH HIM </s>
<s> IN THE TRAIN THE AGENT MURDERED HIM TOOK THE MORE ESSENTIAL PAPERS AND THREW HIS BODY FROM THE CARRIAGE </s>
<s> THAT WOULD ACCOUNT FOR EVERYTHING WOULD IT NOT QUOTE </s>
<s> WHY HAD HE NO TICKET </s>
<s> THE TICKET WOULD HAVE SHOWN WHICH STATION WAS NEAREST THE AGENT'S HOUSE </s>
<s> THEREFORE HE TOOK IT FROM THE MURDERED MAN'S POCKET </s>
<s> GOOD LESTRADE VERY GOOD SAID HOLMES </s>
<s> YOUR THEORY HOLDS TOGETHER </s>
<s> BUT IF THIS IS TRUE THEN THE CASE IS AT AN END </s>
<s> ON THE ONE HAND THE TRAITOR IS DEAD </s>
<s> ON THE OTHER THE PLANS OF THE BRUCE PARTINGTON SUBMARINE ARE PRESUMABLY ALREADY ON THE CONTINENT </s>
<s> WHAT IS THERE FOR US TO DO QUOTE </s>
<s> TO ACT SHERLOCK TO ACT CRIED MYCROFT SPRINGING TO HIS FEET </s>
<s> ALL MY INSTINCTS ARE AGAINST THIS EXPLANATION </s>
<s> USE YOUR POWERS </s>
<s> GO TO THE SCENE OF THE CRIME </s>
<s> SEE THE PEOPLE CONCERNED </s>
<s> LEAVE NO STONE UNTURNED </s>
<s> IN ALL YOUR CAREER YOU HAVE NEVER HAD SO GREAT A CHANCE OF SERVING YOUR COUNTRY </s>
<s> WELL WELL SAID HOLMES SHRUGGING HIS SHOULDERS </s>
<s> COME WATSON </s>
<s> AND YOU LESTRADE COULD YOU FAVOUR US WITH YOUR COMPANY FOR AN HOUR OR TWO </s>
<s> WE WILL BEGIN OUR INVESTIGATION BY A VISIT TO ALDGATE STATION </s>
<s> GOOD BYE MYCROFT </s>
<s> I SHALL LET YOU HAVE A REPORT BEFORE EVENING BUT I WARN YOU IN ADVANCE THAT YOU HAVE LITTLE TO EXPECT QUOTE </s>
<s> AN HOUR LATER HOLMES LESTRADE AND I STOOD UPON THE UNDERGROUND RAILROAD AT THE POINT WHERE IT EMERGES FROM THE TUNNEL IMMEDIATELY BEFORE ALDGATE STATION </s>
<s> A COURTEOUS RED FACED OLD GENTLEMAN REPRESENTED THE RAILWAY COMPANY </s>
<s> THIS IS WHERE THE YOUNG MAN'S BODY LAY SAID HE INDICATING A SPOT ABOUT THREE FEET FROM THE METALS </s>
<s> IT COULD NOT HAVE FALLEN FROM ABOVE FOR THESE AS YOU SEE ARE ALL BLANK WALLS </s>
<s> THEREFORE IT COULD ONLY HAVE COME FROM A TRAIN AND THAT TRAIN SO FAR AS WE CAN TRACE IT MUST HAVE PASSED ABOUT MIDNIGHT ON MONDAY </s>
<s> HAVE THE CARRIAGES BEEN EXAMINED FOR ANY SIGN OF VIOLENCE </s>
<s> THERE ARE NO SUCH SIGNS AND NO TICKET HAS BEEN FOUND </s>
<s> QUOTE NO RECORD OF A DOOR BEING FOUND OPEN QUOTE </s>
<s> NONE </s>
<s> WE HAVE HAD SOME FRESH EVIDENCE THIS MORNING SAID LESTRADE </s>
<s> A PASSENGER WHO PASSED ALDGATE IN AN ORDINARY METROPOLITAN TRAIN ABOUT ELEVEN FORTY ON MONDAY NIGHT DECLARES THAT HE HEARD A HEAVY THUD AS OF A BODY STRIKING THE LINE JUST BEFORE THE TRAIN REACHED THE STATION </s>
<s> THERE WAS DENSE FOG HOWEVER AND NOTHING COULD BE SEEN </s>
<s> HE MADE NO REPORT OF IT AT THE TIME </s>
<s> WHY WHATEVER IS THE MATTER WITH MR. HOLMES </s>
<s> MY FRIEND WAS STANDING WITH AN EXPRESSION OF STRAINED INTENSITY UPON HIS FACE STARING AT THE RAILWAY METALS WHERE THEY CURVED OUT OF THE TUNNEL </s>
<s> ALDGATE IS A JUNCTION AND THERE WAS A NETWORK OF POINTS </s>
<s> ON THESE HIS EAGER QUESTIONING EYES WERE FIXED AND I SAW ON HIS KEEN ALERT FACE THAT TIGHTENING OF THE LIPS THAT QUIVER OF THE NOSTRILS AND CONCENTRATION OF THE HEAVY TUFTED BROWS WHICH I KNEW SO WELL </s>
<s> POINTS HE MUTTERED THE POINTS </s>
<s> QUOTE WHAT OF IT </s>
<s> WHAT DO YOU MEAN </s>
<s> I SUPPOSE THERE ARE NO GREAT NUMBER OF POINTS ON A SYSTEM SUCH AS THIS </s>
<s> NO THERE ARE VERY FEW </s>
<s> AND A CURVE TOO </s>
<s> POINTS AND A CURVE </s>
<s> BY JOVE IF IT WERE ONLY SO </s>
<s> QUOTE WHAT IS IT MR. HOLMES </s>
<s> HAVE YOU A CLUE </s>
<s> AN IDEA AN INDICATION NO MORE </s>
<s> BUT THE CASE CERTAINLY GROWS IN INTEREST </s>
<s> UNIQUE PERFECTLY UNIQUE AND YET WHY NOT </s>
<s> I DO NOT SEE ANY INDICATIONS OF BLEEDING ON THE LINE </s>
<s> THERE WERE HARDLY ANY </s>
<s> BUT I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE WAS A CONSIDERABLE WOUND </s>
<s> QUOTE THE BONE WAS CRUSHED BUT THERE WAS NO GREAT EXTERNAL INJURY QUOTE </s>
<s> AND YET ONE WOULD HAVE EXPECTED SOME BLEEDING </s>
<s> WOULD IT BE POSSIBLE FOR ME TO INSPECT THE TRAIN WHICH CONTAINED THE PASSENGER WHO HEARD THE THUD OF A FALL IN THE FOG </s>
<s> I FEAR NOT MR. HOLMES </s>
<s> THE TRAIN HAS BEEN BROKEN UP BEFORE NOW AND THE CARRIAGES REDISTRIBUTED </s>
<s> I CAN ASSURE YOU MR. HOLMES SAID LESTRADE THAT EVERY CARRIAGE HAS BEEN CAREFULLY EXAMINED </s>
<s> I SAW TO IT MYSELF QUOTE </s>
<s> IT WAS ONE OF MY FRIEND'S MOST OBVIOUS WEAKNESSES THAT HE WAS IMPATIENT WITH LESS ALERT INTELLIGENCES THAN HIS OWN </s>
<s> VERY LIKELY SAID HE TURNING AWAY </s>
<s> AS IT HAPPENS IT WAS NOT THE CARRIAGES WHICH I DESIRED TO EXAMINE </s>
<s> WATSON WE HAVE DONE ALL WE CAN HERE </s>
<s> WE NEED NOT TROUBLE YOU ANY FURTHER MR. LESTRADE </s>
<s> I THINK OUR INVESTIGATIONS MUST NOW CARRY US TO WOOLWICH </s>
<s> AT LONDON BRIDGE HOLMES WROTE A TELEGRAM TO HIS BROTHER WHICH HE HANDED TO ME BEFORE DISPATCHING IT </s>
<s> IT RAN THUS SEE SOME LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS BUT IT MAY POSSIBLY FLICKER OUT </s>
<s> MEANWHILE PLEASE SEND BY MESSENGER TO AWAIT RETURN AT BAKER STREET A COMPLETE LIST OF ALL FOREIGN SPIES OR INTERNATIONAL AGENTS KNOWN TO BE IN ENGLAND WITH FULL ADDRESS </s>
<s> SHERLOCK </s>
<s> THAT SHOULD BE HELPFUL WATSON HE REMARKED AS WE TOOK OUR SEATS IN THE WOOLWICH TRAIN </s>
<s> WE CERTAINLY OWE BROTHER MYCROFT A DEBT FOR HAVING INTRODUCED US TO WHAT PROMISES TO BE A REALLY VERY REMARKABLE CASE </s>
<s> HIS EAGER FACE STILL WORE THAT EXPRESSION OF INTENSE AND HIGHSTRUNG ENERGY WHICH SHOWED ME THAT SOME NOVEL AND SUGGESTIVE CIRCUMSTANCE HAD OPENED UP A STIMULATING LINE OF THOUGHT </s>
<s> SEE THE FOXHOUND WITH HANGING EARS AND DROOPING TAIL AS IT LOLLS ABOUT THE KENNELS AND COMPARE IT WITH THE SAME HOUND AS WITH GLEAMING EYES AND STRAINING MUSCLES IT RUNS UPON A BREAST HIGH SCENT SUCH WAS THE CHANGE IN HOLMES SINCE THE MORNING </s>
<s> HE WAS A DIFFERENT MAN FROM THE LIMP AND LOUNGING FIGURE IN THE MOUSE COLOURED DRESSING GOWN WHO HAD PROWLED SO RESTLESSLY ONLY A FEW HOURS BEFORE ROUND THE FOG GIRT ROOM </s>
<s> QUOTE THERE IS MATERIAL HERE </s>
<s> THERE IS SCOPE SAID HE </s>
<s> I AM DULL INDEED NOT TO HAVE UNDERSTOOD ITS POSSIBILITIES </s>
<s> EVEN NOW THEY ARE DARK TO ME </s>
<s> THE END IS DARK TO ME ALSO BUT I HAVE HOLD OF ONE IDEA WHICH MAY LEAD US FAR </s>
<s> THE MAN MET HIS DEATH ELSEWHERE AND HIS BODY WAS ON THE ROOF OF A CARRIAGE </s>
<s> QUOTE ON THE ROOF QUOTE </s>
<s> REMARKABLE IS IT NOT </s>
<s> BUT CONSIDER THE FACTS </s>
<s> IS IT A COINCIDENCE THAT IT IS FOUND AT THE VERY POINT WHERE THE TRAIN PITCHES AND SWAYS AS IT COMES ROUND ON THE POINTS </s>
<s> IS NOT THAT THE PLACE WHERE AN OBJECT UPON THE ROOF MIGHT BE EXPECTED TO FALL OFF </s>
<s> THE POINTS WOULD AFFECT NO OBJECT INSIDE THE TRAIN </s>
<s> EITHER THE BODY FELL FROM THE ROOF OR A VERY CURIOUS COINCIDENCE HAS OCCURRED </s>
<s> BUT NOW CONSIDER THE QUESTION OF THE BLOOD </s>
<s> OF COURSE THERE WAS NO BLEEDING ON THE LINE IF THE BODY HAD BLED ELSEWHERE </s>
<s> EACH FACT IS SUGGESTIVE IN ITSELF </s>
<s> TOGETHER THEY HAVE A CUMULATIVE FORCE </s>
<s> AND THE TICKET TOO </s>
