It
is
what
we
call
a
cataract
knife
,
"
said
I.
"
I
thought
so
.
A
very
delicate
blade
devised
for
very
delicate
work
.
A
strange
thing
for
a
man
to
carry
with
him
upon
a
rough
expedition
,
especially
as
it
would
not
shut
in
his
pocket
.
"
"
The
tip
was
guarded
by
a
disc
of
cork
which
we
found
beside
his
body
,
"
said
the
inspector
.
"
His
wife
tells
us
that
the
knife
had
lain
upon
the
dressing-table
,
and
that
he
had
picked
it
up
as
he
left
the
room
.
It
was
a
poor
weapon
,
but
perhaps
the
best
that
he
could
lay
his
hands
on
at
the
moment
.
"
"
Very
possibly
.
How
about
these
papers
?
"
"
Three
of
them
are
receipted
hay-dealers
"
accounts
.
One
of
them
is
a
letter
of
instructions
from
Colonel
Ross
.
This
other
is
a
milliner
's
account
for
thirty-seven
pounds
fifteen
made
out
by
Madame
Lesurier
,
of
Bond
Street
,
to
William
Derbyshire
.
Mrs.
Straker
tells
us
that
Derbyshire
was
a
friend
of
her
husband
's
and
that
occasionally
his
letters
were
addressed
here
.
"
"
Madame
Derbyshire
had
somewhat
expensive
tastes
,
"
remarked
Holmes
,
glancing
down
the
account
.
"
Twenty-two
guineas
is
rather
heavy
for
a
single
costume
.
However
,
there
appears
to
be
nothing
more
to
learn
,
and
we
may
now
go
down
to
the
scene
of
the
crime
.
"
As
we
emerged
from
the
sitting-room
a
woman
,
who
had
been
waiting
in
the
passage
,
took
a
step
forward
and
laid
her
hand
upon
the
inspector
's
sleeve
.
Her
face
was
haggard
and
thin
and
eager
,
stamped
with
the
print
of
a
recent
horror
.
"
Have
you
got
them
?
Have
you
found
them
?
"
she
panted
.
"
No
,
Mrs.
Straker
.
But
Mr.
Holmes
here
has
come
from
London
to
help
us
,
and
we
shall
do
all
that
is
possible
.
