<s> IN PUBLISHING THESE SHORT SKETCHES BASED UPON THE NUMEROUS CASES IN WHICH MY COMPANION'S SINGULAR GIFTS HAVE MADE US THE LISTENERS TO AND EVENTUALLY THE ACTORS IN SOME STRANGE DRAMA IT IS ONLY NATURAL THAT I SHOULD DWELL RATHER UPON HIS SUCCESSES THAN UPON HIS FAILURES </s>
<s> AND THIS NOT SO MUCH FOR THE SAKE OF HIS REPUTATION FOR INDEED IT WAS WHEN HE WAS AT HIS WIT'S END THAT HIS ENERGY AND HIS VERSATILITY WERE MOST ADMIRABLE BUT BECAUSE WHERE HE FAILED IT HAPPENED TOO OFTEN THAT NO ONE ELSE SUCCEEDED AND THAT THE TALE WAS LEFT FOREVER WITHOUT A CONCLUSION </s>
<s> NOW AND AGAIN HOWEVER IT CHANCED THAT EVEN WHEN HE ERRED THE TRUTH WAS STILL DISCOVERED </s>
<s> I HAVE NOTES OF SOME HALF DOZEN CASES OF THE KIND THE ADVENTURE OF THE MUSGRAVE RITUAL AND THAT WHICH I AM ABOUT TO RECOUNT ARE THC TWO WHICH PRESENT THE STRONGEST FEATURES OF INTEREST </s>
<s> SHERLOCK HOLMES WAS A MAN WHO SELDOM TOOK EXERCISE FOR EXERCISE'S SAKE </s>
<s> FEW MEN WERE CAPABLE OF GREATER MUSCULAR EFFORT AND HE WAS UNDOUBTEDLY ONE OF THE FINEST BOXERS OF HIS WEIGHT THAT I HAVE EVER SEEN BUT HE LOOKED UPON AIMLESS BODILY EXERTION AS A WASTE OF ENERGY AND HE SELDOM BESTIRRED HIMSELF SAVE WHERE THERE WAS SOME PROFESSIONAL OBJECT TO BE SERVED </s>
<s> THEN HE WAS ABSOLUTELY UNTIRING AND INDEFATIGABLE </s>
<s> THAT HE SHOULD HAVE KEPT HIMSELF IN TRAINING UNDER SUCH CIRCUMSTANCES IS REMARKABLE BUT HIS DIET WAS USUALLY OF THE SPAREST AND HIS HABITS WERE SIMPLE TO THE VERGE OF AUSTERITY </s>
<s> SAVE FOR THE OCCASIONAL USE OF COCAINE HE HAD NO VICES AND HE ONLY TURNED TO THE DRUG AS A PROTEST AGAINST THE MONOTONY OF EXISTENCE WHEN CASES WERE SCANTY AND THE PAPERS UNINTERESTING </s>
<s> ONE DAY IN EARLY SPRING HE HAD SO FAR RELAXED AS TO GO FOR A WALK WITH ME IN THE PARK WHERE THE FIRST FAINT SHOOTS OF GREEN WERE BREAKING OUT UPON THE ELMS AND THE STICKY SPEAR HEADS OF THE CHESTNUTS WERE JUST BEGINNING TO BURST INTO THEIR FIVE FOLD LEAVES </s>
<s> FOR TWO HOURS WE RAMBLED ABOUT TOGETHER IN SILENCE FOR THE MOST PART AS BEFITS TWO MEN WHO KNOW EACH OTHER INTIMATELY </s>
<s> IT WAS NEARLY FIVE BEFORE WE WERE BACK IN BAKER STREET ONCE MORE </s>
<s> QUOTE BEG PARDON SIR QUOTE SAID OUR PAGE BOY AS HE OPENED THE DOOR </s>
<s> THERE'S BEEN A GENTLEMAN HERE ASKING FOR YOU SIR </s>
<s> HOLMES GLANCED REPROACHFULLY AT ME </s>
<s> SO MUCH FOR AFTERNOON WALKS SAID HE </s>
<s> HAS THIS GENTLEMAN GONE THEN </s>
<s> YES SIR </s>
<s> DIDN'T YOU ASK HIM IN </s>
<s> QUOTE YES SIR HE CAME IN QUOTE </s>
<s> HOW LONG DID HE WAIT </s>
<s> HALF AN HOUR SIR </s>
<s> HE WAS A VERY RESTLESS GENTLEMAN SIR A WALKIN' AND A STAMPIN' ALL THE TIME HE WAS HERE </s>
<s> I WAS WAITIN' OUTSIDE THE DOOR SIR AND I COULD HEAR HIM </s>
<s> AT LAST HE OUTS INTO THE PASSAGE AND HE CRIES IS THAT MAN NEVER GOIN' TO COME </s>
<s> THOSE WERE HIS VERY WORDS SIR </s>
<s> YOU'LL ONLY NEED TO WAIT A LITTLE LONGER SAYS I. THEN I'LL WAIT IN THE OPEN AIR FOR I FEEL HALF CHOKED SAYS HE </s>
<s> I'LL BE BACK BEFORE LONG </s>
<s> AND WITH THAT HE UPS AND HE OUTS AND ALL I COULD SAY WOULDN'T HOLD HIM BACK </s>
<s> WELL WELL YOU DID YOUR BEST SAID HOLMES AS WE WALKED INTO OUR ROOM </s>
<s> IT'S VERY ANNOYING THOUGH WATSON </s>
<s> I WAS BADLY IN NEED OF A CASE AND THIS LOOKS FROM THE MAN'S IMPATIENCE AS IF IT WERE OF IMPORTANCE </s>
<s> HULLO THAT'S NOT YOUR PIPE ON THE TABLE </s>
<s> HE MUST HAVE LEFT HIS BEHIND HIM </s>
<s> A NICE OLD BRIER WITH A GOOD LONG STEM OF WHAT THE TOBACCONISTS CALL AMBER </s>
<s> I WONDER HOW MANY REAL AMBER MOUTHPIECES THERE ARE IN LONDON </s>
<s> SOME PEOPLE THINK THAT A FLY IN IT IS A SIGN </s>
<s> WELL HE MUST HAVE BEEN DISTURBED IN HIS MIND TO LEAVE A PIPE BEHIND HIM WHICH HE EVIDENTLY VALUES HIGHLY QUOTE </s>
<s> HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT HE VALUES IT HIGHLY </s>
<s> I ASKED </s>
<s> WELL I SHOULD PUT THE ORIGINAL COST OF THE PIPE AT SEVEN AND SIXPENCE </s>
<s> NOW IT HAS YOU SEE BEEN TWICE MENDED ONCE IN THE WOODEN STEM AND ONCE IN THE AMBER </s>
<s> EACH OF THESE MENDS DONE AS YOU OBSERVE WITH SILVER BANDS MUST HAVE COST MORE THAN THE PIPE DID ORIGINALLY </s>
<s> THE MAN MUST VALUE THE PIPE HIGHLY WHEN HE PREFERS TO PATCH IT UP RATHER THAN BUY A NEW ONE WITH THE SAME MONEY </s>
<s> ANYTHING ELSE </s>
<s> I ASKED FOR HOLMES WAS TURNING THE PIPE ABOUT IN HIS HAND AND STARING AT IT IN HIS PECULIAR PENSIVE WAY </s>
<s> HE HELD IT UP AND TAPPED ON IT WITH HIS LONG THIN FOREFINGER AS A PROFESSOR MIGHT WHO WAS LECTURING ON A BONE </s>
<s> PIPES ARE OCCASIONALLY OF EXTRAORDINARY INTEREST SAID HE </s>
<s> QUOTE NOTHING HAS MORE INDIVIDUALITY SAVE PERHAPS WATCHES AND BOOTLACES </s>
<s> THE INDICATIONS HERE HOWEVER ARE NEITHER VERY MARKED NOR VERY IMPORTANT </s>
<s> THE OWNER IS OBVIOUSLY A MUSCULAR MAN LEFT HANDED WITH AN EXCELLENT SET OF TEETH CARELESS IN HIS HABITS AND WITH NO NEED TO PRACTISE ECONOMY </s>
<s> MY FRIEND THREW OUT THE INFORMATION IN A VERY OFFHAND WAY BUT I SAW THAT HE COCKED HIS EYE AT ME TO SEE IF I HAD FOLLOWED HIS REASONING </s>
<s> YOU THINK A MAN MUST BE WELL TO DO IF HE SMOKES A SEVENSHILLING PIPE SAID I </s>
<s> THIS IS GROSVENOR MIXTURE AT EIGHTPENCE AN OUNCE HOLMES ANSWERED KNOCKING A LITTLE OUT ON HIS PALM </s>
<s> AS HE MIGHT GET AN EXCELLENT SMOKE FOR HALF THE PRICE HE HAS NO NEED TO PRACTISE ECONOMY </s>
<s> AND THE OTHER POINTS </s>
<s> QUOTE HE HAS BEEN IN THE HABIT OF LIGHTING HIS PIPE AT LAMPS AND GASJETS </s>
<s> YOU CAN SEE THAT IT IS QUITE CHARRED ALL DOWN ONE SIDE </s>
<s> OF COURSE A MATCH COULD NOT HAVE DONE THAT </s>
<s> WHY SHOULD A MAN HOLD A MATCH TO THE SIDE OF HIS PIPE </s>
<s> BUT YOU CANNOT LIGHT IT AT A LAMP WITHOUT GETTING THE BOWL CHARRED </s>
<s> AND IT IS ALL ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE PIPE </s>
<s> FROM THAT I GATHER THAT HE IS A LEFT HANDED MAN </s>
<s> YOU HOLD YOUR OWN PIPE TO THE LAMP AND SEE HOW NATURALLY YOU BEING RIGHT HANDED HOLD THE LEFT SIDE TO THE FLAME </s>
<s> YOU MIGHT DO IT ONCE THE OTHER WAY BUT NOT AS A CONSTANCY </s>
<s> THIS HAS ALWAYS BEEN HELD SO </s>
<s> THEN HE HAS BITTEN THROUGH HIS AMBER </s>
<s> IT TAKES A MUSCULAR ENERGETIC FELLOW AND ONE WITH A GOOD SET OF TEETH TO DO THAT </s>
<s> BUT IF I AM NOT MISTAKEN I HEAR HIM UPON THE STAIR SO WE SHALL HAVE SOMETHING MORE INTERESTING THAN HIS PIPE TO STUDY </s>
<s> AN INSTANT LATER OUR DOOR OPENED AND A TALL YOUNG MAN ENTERED THE ROOM </s>
<s> HE WAS WELL BUT QUIETLY DRESSED IN A DARK GRAY SUIT AND CARRIED A BROWN WIDEAWAKE IN HIS HAND </s>
<s> I SHOULD HAVE PUT HIM AT ABOUT THIRTY THOUGH HE WAS REALLY SOME YEARS OLDER </s>
<s> L. BEG YOUR PARDON SAID HE WITH SOME EMBARRASSMENT I SUPPOSE I SHOULD HAVE KNOCKED </s>
<s> YES OF COURSE I SHOULD HAVE KNOCKED </s>
<s> THE FACT IS THAT I AM A LITTLE UPSET AND YOU MUST PUT IT ALL DOWN TO THAT </s>
<s> HE PASSED HIS HAND OVER HIS FOREHEAD LIKE A MAN WHO IS HALF DAZED AND THEN FELL RATHER THAN SAT DOWN UPON A CHALR </s>
<s> I CAN SEE THAT YOU HAVE NOT SLEPT FOR A NIGHT OR TWO SAID HOLMES IN HIS EASY GENIAL WAY </s>
<s> THAT TRIES A MAN'S NERVES MORE THAN WORK AND MORE EVEN THAN PLEASURE </s>
<s> MAY I ASK HOW I CAN HELP YOU QUOTE </s>
<s> I WANTED YOUR ADVICE SIR </s>
<s> I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO AND MY WHOLE LIFE SEEMS TO HAVE GONE TO PIECES </s>
<s> YOU WISH TO EMPLOY ME AS A CONSULTING DETECTIVE </s>
<s> NOT THAT ONLY </s>
<s> I WANT YOUR OPINION AS A JUDICIOUS MAN AS A MAN OF THE WORLD </s>
<s> I WANT TO KNOW WHAT I OUGHT TO DO NEXT </s>
<s> I HOPE TO GOD YOU'LL BE ABLE TO TELL ME </s>
<s> HE SPOKE IN LITTLE SHARP JERKY OUTBURSTS AND IT SEEMED TO ME THAT TO SPEAK AT ALL WAS VERY PAINFUL TO HIM AND THAT HIS WILL ALL THROUGH WAS OVERRIDING HIS INCLINATIONS </s>
<s> QUOTE IT'S A VERY DELICATE THING QUOTE SAID HE </s>
<s> ONE DOES NOT LIKE TO SPEAK OF ONE'S DOMESTIC AFFAIRS TO STRANGERS </s>
<s> IT SEEMS DREADFUL TO DISCUSS THE CONDUCT OF ONE'S WIFE WITH TWO MEN WHOM I HAVE NEVER SEEN BEFORE </s>
<s> IT'S HORRIBLE TO HAVE TO DO IT </s>
<s> BUT I'VE GOT TO THE END OF MY TETHER AND I MUST HAVE ADVICE </s>
<s> MY DEAR MR. GRANT MUNRO BEGAN HOLMES </s>
<s> OUR VISITOR SPRANG FROM HIS CHAIR </s>
<s> WHAT HE CRIED YOU KNOW MY NAME </s>
<s> IF YOU WISH TO PRESERVE YOUR INCOGNITO SAID HOLMES SMILING I WOULD SUGGEST THAT YOU CEASE TO WRITE YOUR NAME UPON THE LINING OF YOUR HAT OR ELSE THAT YOU TURN THE CROWN TOWARDS THE PERSON WHOM YOU ARE ADDRESSING </s>
<s> I WAS ABOUT TO SAY THAT MY FRIEND AND I HAVE LISTENED TO A GOOD MANY STRANGE SECRETS IN THIS ROOM AND THAT WE HAVE HAD THE GOOD FORTUNE TO BRING PEACE TO MANY TROUBLED SOULS </s>
<s> I TRUST THAT WE MAY DO AS MUCH FOR YOU </s>
<s> MIGHT I BEG YOU AS TIME MAY PROVE TO BE OF IMPORTANCE TO FURNISH ME WITH THE FACTS OF YOUR CASE WITHOUT FURTHER DELAY QUOTE </s>
<s> OUR VISITOR AGAIN PASSED HIS HAND OVER HIS FOREHEAD AS IF HE FOUND IT BITTERLY HARD </s>
<s> FROM EVERY GESTURE AND EXPRESSION I COULD SEE THAT HE WAS A RESERVED SELF CONTAINED MAN WITH A DASH OF PRIDE IN HIS NATURE MORE LIKELY TO HIDE HIS WOUNDS THAN TO EXPOSE THEM </s>
<s> THEN SUDDENLY WITH A FIERCE GESTURE OF HIS CLOSED HAND LIKE ONE WHO THROWS RESERVE TO THE WINDS HE BEGAN </s>
<s> THE FACTS ARE THESE MR. HOLMES SAID HE </s>
<s> I AM A MARRIED MAN AND HAVE BEEN SO FOR THREE YEARS </s>
<s> DURING THAT TIME MY WIFE AND I HAVE LOVED EACH OTHER AS FONDLY AND LIVED AS HAPPILY AS ANY TWO THAT EVER WERE JOINED </s>
<s> WE HAVE NOT HAD A DIFFERENCE NOT ONE IN THOUGHT OR WORD OR DEED </s>
<s> AND NOW SINCE LAST MONDAY THERE HAS SUDDENLY SPRUNG UP A BARRIER BETWEEN US. AND I FIND THAT THERE IS SOMETHING IN HER LIFE AND IN HER THOUGHTS OF WHICH I KNOW AS LITTLE AS IF SHE WERE THE WOMAN WHO BRUSHES BY ME IN THE STREET </s>
<s> WE ARE ESTRANGED AND I WANT TO KNOW WHY </s>
<s> NOW THERE IS ONE THING THAT I WANT TO IMPRESS UPON YOU BEFORE I GO ANY FURTHER MR. HOLMES </s>
<s> EFFIE LOVES ME </s>
<s> DON'T LET THERE BE ANY MISTAKE ABOUT THAT </s>
<s> SHE LOVES ME WITH HER WHOLE HEART AND SOUL AND NEVER MORE THAN NOW </s>
<s> I KNOW IT </s>
<s> I FEEL IT </s>
<s> I DON'T WANT TO ARGUE ABOUT THAT </s>
<s> A MAN CAN TELL EASILY ENOUGH WHEN A WOMAN LOVES HIM </s>
<s> BUT THERE'S THIS SECRET BETWEEN US AND WE CAN NEVER BE THE SAME UNTIL IT IS CLEARED </s>
<s> KINDLY LET ME HAVE THE FACTS MR. MUNRO SAID HOLMES WITH SOME IMPATIENCE </s>
<s> QUOTE I'LL TELL YOU WHAT I KNOW ABOUT EFFIE'S HISTORY </s>
<s> SHE WAS A WIDOW WHEN I MET HER FIRST THOUGH QUITE YOUNG ONLY TWENTYFIVE </s>
<s> HER NAME THEN WAS MRS. HEBRON </s>
<s> SHE WENT OUT TO AMERICA WHEN SHE WAS YOUNG AND LIVED IN THE TOWN OF ATLANTA WHERE SHE MARRIED THIS HEBRON WHO WAS A LAWYER WITH A GOOD PRACTICE </s>
<s> THEY HAD ONE CHILD BUT THE YELLOW FEVER BROKE OUT BADLY IN THE PLACE AND BOTH HUSBAND AND CHILD DIED OF IT </s>
<s> I HAVE SEEN HIS DEATH CERTIFICATE </s>
<s> THIS SICKENED HER OF AMERICA AND SHE CAME BACK TO LIVE WITH A MAIDEN AUNT AT PINNER IN MIDDLESEX </s>
<s> I MAY MENTION THAT HER HUSBAND HAD LEFT HER COMFORTABLY OFF AND THAT SHE HAD A CAPITAL OF ABOUT FOUR THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED POUNDS WHICH HAD BEEN SO WELL INVESTED BY HIM THAT IT RETURNED AN AVERAGE OF SEVEN PER CENT </s>
<s> SHE HAD ONLY BEEN SIX MONTHS AT PINNER WHEN I MET HER WE FELL IN LOVE WITH EACH OTHER AND WE MARRIED A FEW WEEKS AFTERWARDS </s>
<s> I AM A HOP MERCHANT MYSELF AND AS I HAVE AN INCOME OF SEVEN OR EIGHT HUNDRED WE FOUND OURSELVES COMFORTABLY OFF AND TOOK A NICE EIGHTY POUND A YEAR VILLA AT NORBURY </s>
<s> OUR LITTLE PLACE WAS VERY COUNTRIFIED CONSIDERING THAT IT IS SO CLOSE TO TOWN </s>
<s> WE HAD AN INN AND TWO HOUSES A LITTLE ABOVE US AND A SINGLE COTTAGE AT THE OTHER SIDE OF THE FIELD WHICH FACES US AND EXCEPT THOSE THERE WERE NO HOUSES UNTIL YOU GOT HALFWAY TO THE STATION </s>
<s> MY BUSINESS TOOK ME INTO TOWN AT CERTAIN SEASONS BUT IN SUMMER I HAD LESS TO DO AND THEN IN OUR COUNTRY HOME MY WIFE AND I WERE JUST AS HAPPY AS COULD BE WISHED </s>
<s> I TELL YOU THAT THERE NEVER WAS A SHADOW BETWEEN US UNTIL THIS ACCURSED AFFAIR BEGAN </s>
<s> THERE'S ONE THING I OUGHT TO TELL YOU BEFORE I GO FURTHER </s>
<s> WHEN WE MARRIED MY WIFE MADE OVER ALL HER PROPERTY TO ME RATHER AGAINST MY WILL FOR I SAW HOW AWKWARD IT WOULD BE IF MY BUSINESS AFFAIRS WENT WRONG </s>
<s> HOWEVER SHE WOULD HAVE IT SO AND IT WAS DONE </s>
<s> WELL ABOUT SIX WEEKS AGO SHE CAME TO ME </s>
<s> JACK SAID SHE WHEN YOU TOOK MY MONEY YOU SAID THAT IF EVER I WANTED ANY I WAS TO ASK YOU FOR IT </s>
<s> CERTAINLY SAID I. IT'S ALL YOUR OWN </s>
<s> WELL SAID SHE I WANT A HUNDRED POUNDS </s>
<s> QUOTE I WAS A BIT STAGGERED AT THIS FOR I HAD IMAGINED IT WAS SIMPLY A NEW DRESS OR SOMETHING OF THE KIND THAT SHE WAS AFTER </s>
<s> WHAT ON EARTH FOR </s>
<s> I ASKED </s>
<s> OH SAID SHE IN HER PLAYFUL WAY YOU SAID THAT YOU WERE ONLY MY BANKER AND BANKERS NEVER ASK QUESTIONS YOU KNOW </s>
<s> IF YOU REALLY MEAN IT OF COURSE YOU SHALL HAVE THE MONEY SAID I </s>
<s> OH YES I REALLY MEAN IT </s>
<s> AND YOU WON'T TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT IT FOR </s>
<s> QUOTE SOME DAY PERHAPS BUT NOT JUST AT PRESENT JACK </s>
<s> SO I HAD TO BE CONTENT WITH THAT THOUGH IT WAS THE FIRST TIME THAT THERE HAD EVER BEEN ANY SECRET BETWEEN US </s>
<s> I GAVE HER A CHECK AND I NEVER THOUGHT ANY MORE OF THE MATTER </s>
<s> IT MAY HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH WHAT CAME AFTERWARDS BUT I THOUGHT IT ONLY RIGHT TO MENTION IT </s>
<s> WELL I TOLD YOU JUST NOW THAT THERE IS A COTTAGE NOT FAR FROM OUR HOUSE </s>
<s> THERE IS JUST A FIELD BETWEEN US BUT TO REACH IT YOU HAVE TO GO ALONG THE ROAD AND THEN TURN DOWN A LANE </s>
