“
Just
close
the
door
,
”
said
Holmes
.
“
Now
,
Mr
.
Gilchrist
,
we
are
all
quite
alone
here
,
and
no
one
need
ever
know
one
word
of
what
passes
between
us
.
We
can
be
perfectly
frank
with
each
other
.
We
want
to
know
,
Mr
.
Gilchrist
,
how
you
,
an
honourable
man
,
ever
came
to
commit
such
an
action
as
that
of
yesterday
?
”
The
unfortunate
young
man
staggered
back
,
and
cast
a
look
full
of
horror
and
reproach
at
Bannister
.
“
No
,
no
,
Mr
.
Gilchrist
,
sir
,
I
never
said
a
word
—
never
one
word
!
”
cried
the
servant
.

“
No
,
but
you
have
now
,
”
said
Holmes
.
“
Now
,
sir
,
you
must
see
that
after
Bannister
’
s
words
your
position
is
hopeless
,
and
that
your
only
chance
lies
in
a
frank
confession
.
”
For
a
moment
Gilchrist
,
with
upraised
hand
,
tried
to
control
his
writhing
features
.
The
next
he
had
thrown
himself
on
his
knees
beside
the
table
,
and
burying
his
face
in
his
hands
,
he
had
burst
into
a
storm
of
passionate
sobbing
.
“
Come
,
come
,
”
said
Holmes
,
kindly
,
“
it
is
human
to
err
,
and
at
least
no
one
can
accuse
you
of
being
a
callous
criminal
.
Perhaps
it
would
be
easier
for
you
if
I
were
to
tell
Mr
.
Soames
what
occurred
,
and
you
can
check
me
where
I
am
wrong
.
Shall
I
do
so
?
Well
,
well
,
don
’
t
trouble
to
answer
.
Listen
,
and
see
that
I
do
you
no
injustice
.

From
the
moment
,
Mr
.
Soames
,
that
you
said
to
me
that
no
one
,
not
even
Bannister
,
could
have
told
that
the
papers
were
in
your
room
,
the
case
began
to
take
a
definite
shape
in
my
mind
.
The
printer
one
could
,
of
course
,
dismiss
.
He
could
examine
the
papers
in
his
own
office
.
The
Indian
I
also
thought
nothing
of
.
If
the
proofs
were
in
a
roll
,
he
could
not
possibly
know
what
they
were
.
On
the
other
hand
,
it
seemed
an
unthinkable
coincidence
that
a
man
should
dare
to
enter
the
room
,
and
that
by
chance
on
that
very
day
the
papers
were
on
the
table
.
I
dismissed
that
.
The
man
who
entered
knew
that
the
papers
were
there
.
How
did
he
know
?
“
When
I
approached
your
room
,
I
examined
the
window
.
You
amused
me
by
supposing
that
I
was
contemplating
the
possibility
of
someone
having
in
broad
daylight
,
under
the
eyes
of
all
these
opposite
rooms
,
forced
himself
through
it
.
Such
an
idea
was
absurd
.
I
was
measuring
how
tall
a
man
would
need
to
be
in
order
to
see
,
as
he
passed
,
what
papers
were
on
the
central
table
.
I
am
six
feet
high
,
and
I
could
do
it
with
an
effort
.
No
one
less
than
that
would
have
a
chance
.
Already
you
see
I
had
reason
to
think
that
,
if
one
of
your
three
students
was
a
man
of
unusual
height
,
he
was
the
most
worth
watching
of
the
three
.
