"
Watson
,
"
said
he
,
"
if
it
should
ever
strike
you
that
I
am
getting
a
little
overconfident
in
my
powers
,
or
giving
less
pains
to
a
case
than
it
deserves
,
kindly
whisper
'
Norbury
"
in
my
ear
,
and
I
shall
be
infinitely
obliged
to
you
.
"
Shortly
after
my
marriage
I
had
bought
a
connection
in
the
Paddington
district
.
Old
Mr.
Farquhar
,
from
whom
I
purchased
it
,
had
at
one
time
an
excellent
general
practice
;
but
his
age
,
and
an
affliction
of
the
nature
of
St.
Vitus
's
dance
from
which
he
suffered
,
had
very
much
thinned
it
.
The
public
not
unnaturally
goes
on
the
principle
that
he
who
would
heal
others
must
himself
be
whole
,
and
looks
askance
at
the
curative
powers
of
the
man
whose
own
case
is
beyond
the
reach
of
his
drugs
.
Thus
as
my
predecessor
weakened
his
practice
declined
,
until
when
I
purchased
it
from
him
it
had
sunk
from
twelve
hundred
to
little
more
than
three
hundred
a
year
.
I
had
confidence
,
however
,
in
my
own
youth
and
energy
and
was
convinced
that
in
a
very
few
years
the
concern
would
be
as
flourishing
as
ever
.
For
three
months
after
taking
over
the
practice
I
was
kept
very
closely
at
work
and
saw
little
of
my
friend
Sherlock
Holmes
,
for
I
was
too
busy
to
visit
Baker
Street
,
and
he
seldom
went
anywhere
himself
save
upon
professional
business
.
I
was
surprised
,
therefore
,
when
,
one
morning
in
June
,
as
I
sat
reading
the
British
Medical
Journal
after
breakfast
,
I
heard
a
ring
at
the
bell
,
followed
by
the
high
,
somewhat
strident
tones
of
my
old
companion
's
voice
.
"
Ah
,
my
dear
Watson
,
"
said
he
,
striding
into
the
room
,
"
I
am
very
delighted
to
see
you
!
I
trust
that
Mrs.
Watson
has
entirely
recovered
from
all
the
little
excitements
connected
with
our
adventure
of
the
Sign
of
Four
.
"
"
Thank
you
,
we
are
both
very
well
,
"
said
I
,
shaking
him
warmly
by
the
hand
.
"
And
I
hope
,
also
,
"
he
continued
,
sitting
down
in
the
rocking-chair
,
"
that
the
cares
of
medical
practice
have
not
entirely
obliterated
the
interest
which
you
used
to
take
in
our
little
deductive
problems
.
"
"
On
the
contrary
,
"
I
answered
,
"
it
was
only
last
night
that
I
was
looking
over
my
old
notes
,
and
classifying
some
of
our
past
results
.
"
"
I
trust
that
you
do
n't
consider
your
collection
closed
.
"
"
Not
at
all
.
I
should
wish
nothing
better
than
to
have
some
more
of
such
experiences
.
