<s> IN THE CORNER STOOPING OVER A DESK THERE SAT WHAT APPEARED TO BE A LITTLE GIRL </s>
<s> HER FACE WAS TURNED AWAY AS WE ENTERED BUT WE COULD SEE THAT SHE WAS DRESSED IN A RED FROCK AND THAT SHE HAD LONG WHITE GLOVES ON </s>
<s> AS SHE WHISKED ROUND TO US I GAVE A CRY OF SURPRISE AND HORROR </s>
<s> THE FACE WHICH SHE TURNED TOWARDS US WAS OF THE STRANGEST LIVID TINT AND THE FEATURES WERE ABSOLUTELY DEVOID OF ANY EXPRESSION </s>
<s> AN INSTANT LATER THE MYSTERY WAS EXPLAINED </s>
<s> HOLMES WITH A LAUGH PASSED HIS HAND BEHIND THE CHILD'S EAR A MASK PEELED OFF FROM HER COUNTENANCE AND THERE WAS A LITTLE COAL BLACK NEGRESS WITH ALL HER WHITE TEETH FLASHING IN AMUSEMENT AT OUR AMAZED FACES </s>

<s> SHE DREW A LARGE SILVER LOCKET FROM HER BOSOM </s>
<s> YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS OPEN </s>
<s> I UNDERSTOOD THAT IT DID NOT OPEN </s>
<s> SHE TOUCHED A SPRING AND THE FRONT HINGED BACK </s>

<s> THOUGH I KNEW THE DANGER I DETERMINED TO HAVE THE CHILD OVER IF IT WERE BUT FOR A FEW WEEKS </s>
<s> I SENT A HUNDRED POUNDS TO THE NURSE AND I GAVE HER INSTRUCTIONS ABOUT THIS COTTAGE SO THAT SHE MIGHT COME AS A NEIGHBOUR WITHOUT MY APPEARING TO BE IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH HER </s>
<s> I PUSHED MY PRECAUTIONS SO FAR AS TO ORDER HER TO KEEP THE CHILD IN THE HOUSE DURING THE DAYTIME AND TO COVER UP HER LITTLE FACE AND HANDS SO THAT EVEN THOSE WHO MIGHT SEE HER AT THE WINDOW SHOULD NOT GOSSIP ABOUT THERE BEING A BLACK CHILD IN THE NEIGHBOURHOOD </s>
<s> IF I HAD BEEN LESS CAUTIOUS I MIGHT HAVE BEEN MORE WISE. BUT I WAS HALF CRAZY WITH FEAR THAT YOU SHOULD LEARN THE TRUTH </s>
<s> IT WAS YOU WHO TOLD ME FIRST THAT THE COTTAGE WAS OCCUPIED </s>
