Well
,
well
,
it
just
happens
that
I
have
already
read
all
the
available
evidence
,
including
the
report
of
the
inquest
,
with
some
care
.
By
the
way
,
what
do
you
make
of
that
tobacco
pouch
,
found
on
the
scene
of
the
crime
?
Is
there
no
clue
there
?
”
Hopkins
looked
surprised
.
“
It
was
the
man
’
s
own
pouch
,
sir
.
His
initials
were
inside
it
.
And
it
was
of
sealskin
,
—
and
he
was
an
old
sealer
.
”
“
But
he
had
no
pipe
.
”
“
No
,
sir
,
we
could
find
no
pipe
.
Indeed
,
he
smoked
very
little
,
and
yet
he
might
have
kept
some
tobacco
for
his
friends
.
”
“
No
doubt
.
I
only
mention
it
because
,
if
I
had
been
handling
the
case
,
I
should
have
been
inclined
to
make
that
the
starting
-
point
of
my
investigation
.
However
,
my
friend
,
Dr
.
Watson
,
knows
nothing
of
this
matter
,
and
I
should
be
none
the
worse
for
hearing
the
sequence
of
events
once
more
.
Just
give
us
some
short
sketches
of
the
essentials
.
”
Stanley
Hopkins
drew
a
slip
of
paper
from
his
pocket
.
“
I
have
a
few
dates
here
which
will
give
you
the
career
of
the
dead
man
,
Captain
Peter
Carey
.
He
was
born
in
’
45
—
fifty
years
of
age
.
He
was
a
most
daring
and
successful
seal
and
whale
fisher
.
In
1883
he
commanded
the
steam
sealer
Sea
Unicorn
,
of
Dundee
.
He
had
then
had
several
successful
voyages
in
succession
,
and
in
the
following
year
,
1884
,
he
retired
.
After
that
he
travelled
for
some
years
,
and
finally
he
bought
a
small
place
called
Woodman
’
s
Lee
,
near
Forest
Row
,
in
Sussex
.
There
he
has
lived
for
six
years
,
and
there
he
died
just
a
week
ago
to
-
day
.
“
There
were
some
most
singular
points
about
the
man
.
In
ordinary
life
,
he
was
a
strict
Puritan
—
a
silent
,
gloomy
fellow
.
His
household
consisted
of
his
wife
,
his
daughter
,
aged
twenty
,
and
two
female
servants
.
These
last
were
continually
changing
,
for
it
was
never
a
very
cheery
situation
,
and
sometimes
it
became
past
all
bearing
.
The
man
was
an
intermittent
drunkard
,
and
when
he
had
the
fit
on
him
he
was
a
perfect
fiend
.
