<s> BUT I FELT THAT MY SCHOOL HAD REACHED ITS ZENITH WHEN THREE WEEKS AGO THE DUKE OF HOLDERNESSE SENT MR. JAMES WILDER HIS SECRETARY WITH THE INTIMATION THAT YOUNG LORD SALTIRE TEN YEARS OLD HIS ONLY SON AND HEIR WAS ABOUT TO BE COMMITTED TO MY CHARGE </s>
<s> LITTLE DID I THINK THAT THIS WOULD BE THE PRELUDE TO THE MOST CRUSHING MISFORTUNE OF MY LIFE </s>
<s> ON MAY FIRST THE BOY ARRIVED THAT BEING THE BEGINNING OF THE SUMMER TERM </s>
<s> HE WAS A CHARMING YOUTH AND HE SOON FELL INTO OUR WAYS </s>
<s> I MAY TELL YOU I TRUST THAT I AM NOT INDISCREET BUT HALF CONFIDENCES ARE ABSURD IN SUCH A CASE THAT HE WAS NOT ENTIRELY HAPPY AT HOME </s>
<s> IT IS AN OPEN SECRET THAT THE DUKE'S MARRIED LIFE HAD NOT BEEN A PEACEFUL ONE AND THE MATTER HAD ENDED IN A SEPARATION BY MUTUAL CONSENT THE DUCHESS TAKING UP HER RESIDENCE IN THE SOUTH OF FRANCE </s>
<s> THIS HAD OCCURRED VERY SHORTLY BEFORE AND THE BOY'S SYMPATHIES ARE KNOWN TO HAVE BEEN STRONGLY WITH HIS MOTHER </s>
<s> HE MOPED AFTER HER DEPARTURE FROM HOLDERNESSE HALL AND IT WAS FOR THIS REASON THAT THE DUKE DESIRED TO SEND HIM TO MY ESTABLISHMENT </s>
<s> IN A FORTNIGHT THE BOY WAS QUITE AT HOME WITH US AND WAS APPARENTLY ABSOLUTELY HAPPY </s>
<s> HE WAS LAST SEEN ON THE NIGHT OF MAY THIRTEENTH THAT IS THE NIGHT OF LAST MONDAY </s>
<s> HIS ROOM WAS ON THE SECOND FLOOR AND WAS APPROACHED THROUGH ANOTHER LARGER ROOM IN WHICH TWO BOYS WERE SLEEPING </s>
<s> THESE BOYS SAW AND HEARD NOTHING SO THAT IT IS CERTAIN THAT YOUNG SALTIRE DID NOT PASS OUT THAT WAY </s>
<s> HIS WINDOW WAS OPEN AND THERE IS A STOUT IVY PLANT LEADING TO THE GROUND </s>
<s> WE COULD TRACE NO FOOTMARKS BELOW BUT IT IS SURE THAT THIS IS THE ONLY POSSIBLE EXIT </s>
<s> HIS ABSENCE WAS DISCOVERED AT SEVEN O'CLOCK ON TUESDAY MORNING </s>
<s> HIS BED HAD BEEN SLEPT IN </s>
<s> HE HAD DRESSED HIMSELF FULLY BEFORE GOING OFF IN HIS USUAL SCHOOL SUIT OF BLACK ETON JACKET AND DARK GRAY TROUSERS </s>
<s> THERE WERE NO SIGNS THAT ANYONE HAD ENTERED THE ROOM AND IT IS QUITE CERTAIN THAT ANYTHING IN THE NATURE OF CRIES OR A STRUGGLE WOULD HAVE BEEN HEARD SINCE CAUNTER THE ELDER BOY IN THE INNER ROOM IS A VERY LIGHT SLEEPER </s>
<s> WHEN LORD SALTIRE'S DISAPPEARANCE WAS DISCOVERED I AT ONCE CALLED A ROLL OF THE WHOLE ESTABLISHMENT BOYS MASTERS AND SERVANTS </s>
<s> IT WAS THEN THAT WE ASCERTAINED THAT LORD SALTIRE HAD NOT BEEN ALONE IN HIS FLIGHT </s>
<s> HEIDEGGER THE GERMAN MASTER WAS MISSING </s>
<s> HIS ROOM WAS ON THE SECOND FLOOR AT THE FARTHER END OF THE BUILDING FACING THE SAME WAY AS LORD SALTIRE'S </s>
<s> HIS BED HAD ALSO BEEN SLEPT IN BUT HE HAD APPARENTLY GONE AWAY PARTLY DRESSED SINCE HIS SHIRT AND SOCKS WERE LYING ON THE FLOOR </s>
<s> HE HAD UNDOUBTEDLY LET HIMSELF DOWN BY THE IVY FOR WE COULD SEE THE MARKS OF HIS FEET WHERE HE HAD LANDED ON THE LAWN </s>
<s> HIS BICYCLE WAS KEPT IN A SMALL SHED BESIDE THIS LAWN AND IT ALSO WAS GONE </s>
<s> HE HAD BEEN WITH ME FOR TWO YEARS AND CAME WITH THE BEST REFERENCES BUT HE WAS A SILENT MOROSE MAN NOT VERY POPULAR EITHER WITH MASTERS OR BOYS </s>
<s> NO TRACE COULD BE FOUND OF THE FUGITIVES AND NOW ON THURSDAY MORNING WE ARE AS IGNORANT AS WE WERE ON TUESDAY </s>
<s> INQUIRY WAS OF COURSE MADE AT ONCE AT HOLDERNESE HALL </s>
<s> IT IS ONLY A FEW MILES AWAY AND WE IMAGINED THAT IN SOME SUDDEN ATTACK OF HOMESICKNESS HE HAD GONE BACK TO HIS FATHER BUT NOTHING HAD BEEN HEARD OF HIM </s>
<s> THE DUKE IS GREATLY AGITATED AND AS TO ME YOU HAVE SEEN YOURSELVES THE STATE OF NERVOUS PROSTRATION TO WHICH THE SUSPENSE AND THE RESPONSIBILITY HAVE REDUCED ME </s>
<s> MR. HOLMES IF EVER YOU PUT FORWARD YOUR FULL POWERS I IMPLORE YOU TO DO SO NOW FOR NEVER IN YOUR LIFE COULD YOU HAVE A CASE WHICH IS MORE WORTHY OF THEM QUOTE </s>
<s> SHERLOCK HOLMES HAD LISTENED WITH THE UTMOST INTENTNESS TO THE STATEMENT OF THE UNHAPPY SCHOOLMASTER </s>
<s> HIS DRAWN BROWS AND THE DEEP FURROW BETWEEN THEM SHOWED THAT HE NEEDED NO EXHORTATION TO CONCENTRATE ALL HIS ATTENTION UPON A PROBLEM WHICH APART FROM THE TREMENDOUS INTERESTS INVOLVED MUST APPEAL SO DIRECTLY TO HIS LOVE OF THE COMPLEX AND THE UNUSUAL </s>
<s> HE NOW DREW OUT HIS NOTEBOOK AND JOTTED DOWN ONE OR TWO MEMORANDA </s>
<s> YOU HAVE BEEN VERY REMISS IN NOT COMING TO ME SOONER SAID HE SEVERELY </s>
<s> YOU START ME ON MY INVESTIGATION WITH A VERY SERIOUS HANDICAP </s>
<s> IT IS INCONCEIVABLE FOR EXAMPLE THAT THIS IVY AND THIS LAWN WOULD HAVE YIELDED NOTHING TO AN EXPERT OBSERVER </s>
<s> I AM NOT TO BLAME MR. HOLMES </s>
<s> HIS GRACE WAS EXTREMELY DESIROUS TO AVOID ALL PUBLIC SCANDAL </s>
<s> HE WAS AFRAID OF HIS FAMILY UNHAPPINESS BEING DRAGGED BEFORE THE WORLD </s>
<s> HE HAS A DEEP HORROR OF ANYTHING OF THE KIND </s>
<s> QUOTE BUT THERE HAS BEEN SOME OFFICIAL INVESTIGATION QUOTE </s>
<s> YES SIR AND IT HAS PROVED MOST DISAPPOINTING </s>
<s> AN APPARENT CLUE WAS AT ONCE OBTAINED SINCE A BOY AND A YOUNG MAN WERE REPORTED TO HAVE BEEN SEEN LEAVING A NEIGHBOURING STATION BY AN EARLY TRAIN </s>
<s> ONLY LAST NIGHT WE HAD NEWS THAT THE COUPLE HAD BEEN HUNTED DOWN IN LIVERPOOL AND THEY PROVE TO HAVE NO CONNECTION WHATEVER WITH THE MATTER IN HAND </s>
<s> THEN IT WAS THAT IN MY DESPAIR AND DISAPPOINTMENT AFTER A SLEEPLESS NIGHT I CAME STRAIGHT TO YOU BY THE EARLY TRAIN </s>
<s> I SUPPOSE THE LOCAL INVESTIGATION WAS RELAXED WHILE THIS FALSE CLUE WAS BEING FOLLOWED UP </s>
<s> IT WAS ENTIRELY DROPPED </s>
<s> SO THAT THREE DAYS HAVE BEEN WASTED </s>
<s> THE AFFAIR HAS BEEN MOST DEPLORABLY HANDLED QUOTE </s>
<s> I FEEL IT AND ADMIT IT </s>
<s> AND YET THE PROBLEM SHOULD BE CAPABLE OF ULTIMATE SOLUTION </s>
<s> I SHALL BE VERY HAPPY TO LOOK INTO IT </s>
<s> HAVE YOU BEEN ABLE TO TRACE ANY CONNECTION BETWEEN THE MISSING BOY AND THIS GERMAN MASTER </s>
<s> NONE AT ALL </s>
<s> WAS HE IN THE MASTER'S CLASS </s>
<s> QUOTE NO HE NEVER EXCHANGED A WORD WITH HIM SO FAR AS I KNOW QUOTE </s>
<s> THAT IS CERTAINLY VERY SINGULAR </s>
<s> HAD THE BOY A BICYCLE </s>
<s> NUMBER </s>
<s> WAS ANY OTHER BICYCLE MISSING </s>
<s> NUMBER </s>
<s> QUOTE IS THAT CERTAIN QUOTE </s>
<s> QUITE </s>
<s> WELL NOW YOU DO NOT MEAN TO SERIOUSLY SUGGEST THAT THIS GERMAN RODE OFF UPON A BICYCLE IN THE DEAD OF THE NIGHT BEARING THE BOY IN HIS ARMS </s>
<s> CERTAINLY NOT </s>
<s> THEN WHAT IS THE THEORY IN YOUR MIND </s>
<s> THE BICYCLE MAY HAVE BEEN A BLIND </s>
<s> IT MAY HAVE BEEN HIDDEN SOMEWHERE AND THE PAIR GONE OFF ON FOOT QUOTE </s>
<s> QUITE SO BUT IT SEEMS RATHER AN ABSURD BLIND DOES IT NOT </s>
<s> WERE THERE OTHER BICYCLES IN THIS SHED </s>
<s> SEVERAL </s>
<s> WOULD HE NOT HAVE HIDDEN A COUPLE HAD HE DESIRED TO GIVE THE IDEA THAT THEY HAD GONE OFF UPON THEM </s>
<s> I SUPPOSE HE WOULD </s>
<s> QUOTE OF COURSE HE WOULD </s>
<s> THE BLIND THEORY WON'T DO </s>
<s> BUT THE INCIDENT IS AN ADMIRABLE STARTING POINT FOR AN INVESTIGATION </s>
<s> AFTER ALL A BICYCLE IS NOT AN EASY THING TO CONCEAL OR TO DESTROY </s>
<s> ONE OTHER QUESTION </s>
<s> DID ANYONE CALL TO SEE THE BOY ON THE DAY BEFORE HE DISAPPEARED </s>
<s> NUMBER </s>
<s> DID HE GET ANY LETTERS </s>
<s> YES ONE LETTER </s>
<s> FROM WHOM </s>
<s> QUOTE FROM HIS FATHER QUOTE </s>
<s> DO YOU OPEN THE BOYS' LETTERS </s>
<s> NUMBER </s>
<s> HOW DO YOU KNOW IT WAS FROM THE FATHER </s>
<s> THE COAT OF ARMS WAS ON THE ENVELOPE AND IT WAS ADDRESSED IN THE DUKE'S PECULIAR STIFF HAND </s>
<s> BESIDES THE DUKE REMEMBERS HAVING WRITTEN </s>
<s> QUOTE WHEN HAD HE A LETTER BEFORE THAT QUOTE </s>
<s> NOT FOR SEVERAL DAYS </s>
<s> HAD HE EVER ONE FROM FRANCE </s>
<s> NO NEVER </s>
<s> YOU SEE THE POINT OF MY QUESTIONS OF COURSE </s>
<s> EITHER THE BOY WAS CARRIED OFF BY FORCE OR HE WENT OF HIS OWN FREE WILL </s>
<s> IN THE LATTER CASE YOU WOULD EXPECT THAT SOME PROMPTING FROM OUTSIDE WOULD BE NEEDED TO MAKE SO YOUNG A LAD DO SUCH A THING </s>
<s> IF HE HAS HAD NO VISITORS THAT PROMPTING MUST HAVE COME IN LETTERS HENCE I TRY TO FIND OUT WHO WERE HIS CORRESPONDENTS </s>
<s> QUOTE I FEAR I CANNOT HELP YOU MUCH </s>
<s> HIS ONLY CORRESPONDENT SO FAR AS I KNOW WAS HIS OWN FATHER </s>
<s> WHO WROTE TO HIM ON THE VERY DAY OF HIS DISAPPEARANCE </s>
<s> WERE THE RELATIONS BETWEEN FATHER AND SON VERY FRIENDLY </s>
<s> HIS GRACE IS NEVER VERY FRIENDLY WITH ANYONE </s>
<s> HE IS COMPLETELY IMMERSED IN LARGE PUBLIC QUESTIONS AND IS RATHER INACCESSIBLE TO ALL ORDINARY EMOTIONS </s>
<s> BUT HE WAS ALWAYS KIND TO THE BOY IN HLS OWN WAY </s>
<s> QUOTE BUT THE SYMPATHIES OF THE LATTER WERE WITH THE MOTHER QUOTE </s>
<s> YES </s>
<s> DID HE SAY SO </s>
<s> NUMBER </s>
<s> THE DUKE THEN </s>
