There
was
a
pause
after
the
stock-broker
's
clerk
had
concluded
his
surprising
experience
.
Then
Sherlock
Holmes
cocked
his
eye
at
me
,
leaning
back
on
the
cushions
with
a
pleased
and
yet
critical
face
,
like
a
connoisseur
who
has
just
taken
his
first
sip
of
a
comet
vintage
.
"
Rather
fine
,
Watson
,
is
it
not
?
"
said
he
.
"
There
are
points
in
it
which
please
me
.
I
think
that
you
will
agree
with
me
that
an
interview
with
Mr.
Arthur
Harry
Pinner
in
the
temporary
offices
of
the
Franco-Midland
Hardware
Company
,
Limited
,
would
be
a
rather
interesting
experience
for
both
of
us
.
"
"
But
how
can
we
do
it
?
"
I
asked
.
"
Oh
,
easily
enough
,
"
said
Hall
Pycroft
cheerily
.
"
You
are
two
friends
of
mine
who
are
in
want
of
a
billet
,
and
what
could
be
more
natural
than
that
I
should
bring
you
both
round
to
the
managing
director
?
"
"
Quite
so
,
of
course
,
"
said
Holmes
.
"
I
should
like
to
have
a
look
at
the
gentleman
and
see
if
I
can
make
anything
of
his
little
game
.
What
qualities
have
you
,
my
friend
,
which
would
make
your
services
so
valuable
?
Or
is
it
possible
that
--
"
He
began
biting
his
nails
and
staring
blankly
out
of
the
window
,
and
we
hardly
drew
another
word
from
him
until
we
were
in
New
Street
.
At
seven
o'clock
that
evening
we
were
walking
,
the
three
of
us
,
down
Corporation
Street
to
the
company
's
offices
.
"
It
is
no
use
our
being
at
all
before
our
time
,
"
said
our
client
.
"
He
only
comes
there
to
see
me
,
apparently
,
for
the
place
is
deserted
up
to
the
very
hour
he
names
.
"
"
That
is
suggestive
,
"
remarked
Holmes
.
"
By
Jove
,
I
told
you
so
!
"
cried
the
clerk
.
"
That
's
he
walking
ahead
of
us
there
.
