“
It
is
indeed
,
Mr
.
Holmes
.
I
’
ve
had
a
bustling
afternoon
,
I
promise
you
.
Did
you
see
anything
of
the
Yoxley
case
in
the
latest
editions
?
”
“
I
’
ve
seen
nothing
later
than
the
fifteenth
century
to
-
day
.
”
“
Well
,
it
was
only
a
paragraph
,
and
all
wrong
at
that
,
so
you
have
not
missed
anything
.
I
haven
’
t
let
the
grass
grow
under
my
feet
.
It
’
s
down
in
Kent
,
seven
miles
from
Chatham
and
three
from
the
railway
line
.
I
was
wired
for
at
3
:
15
,
reached
Yoxley
Old
Place
at
5
,
conducted
my
investigation
,
was
back
at
Charing
Cross
by
the
last
train
,
and
straight
to
you
by
cab
.
”
“
Which
means
,
I
suppose
,
that
you
are
not
quite
clear
about
your
case
?
”
“
It
means
that
I
can
make
neither
head
nor
tail
of
it
.
So
far
as
I
can
see
,
it
is
just
as
tangled
a
business
as
ever
I
handled
,
and
yet
at
first
it
seemed
so
simple
that
one
couldn
’
t
go
wrong
.
There
’
s
no
motive
,
Mr
.
Holmes
.
That
’
s
what
bothers
me
—
I
can
’
t
put
my
hand
on
a
motive
.
Here
’
s
a
man
dead
—
there
’
s
no
denying
that
—
but
,
so
far
as
I
can
see
,
no
reason
on
earth
why
anyone
should
wish
him
harm
.
”
Holmes
lit
his
cigar
and
leaned
back
in
his
chair
.
“
Let
us
hear
about
it
,
”
said
he
.
“
I
’
ve
got
my
facts
pretty
clear
,
”
said
Stanley
Hopkins
.
“
All
I
want
now
is
to
know
what
they
all
mean
.
The
story
,
so
far
as
I
can
make
it
out
,
is
like
this
.
Some
years
ago
this
country
house
,
Yoxley
Old
Place
,
was
taken
by
an
elderly
man
,
who
gave
the
name
of
Professor
Coram
.
He
was
an
invalid
,
keeping
his
bed
half
the
time
,
and
the
other
half
hobbling
round
the
house
with
a
stick
or
being
pushed
about
the
grounds
by
the
gardener
in
a
Bath
chair
.
He
was
well
liked
by
the
few
neighbours
who
called
upon
him
,
and
he
has
the
reputation
down
there
of
being
a
very
learned
man
.
His
household
used
to
consist
of
an
elderly
housekeeper
,
Mrs
.
Marker
,
and
of
a
maid
,
Susan
Tarlton
.
These
have
both
been
with
him
since
his
arrival
,
and
they
seem
to
be
women
of
excellent
character
.
The
professor
is
writing
a
learned
book
,
and
he
found
it
necessary
,
about
a
year
ago
,
to
engage
a
secretary
.
The
first
two
that
he
tried
were
not
successes
,
but
the
third
,
Mr
.
Willoughby
Smith
,
a
very
young
man
straight
from
the
university
,
seems
to
have
been
just
what
his
employer
wanted
.
His
work
consisted
in
writing
all
the
morning
to
the
professor
’
s
dictation
,
and
he
usually
spent
the
evening
in
hunting
up
references
and
passages
which
bore
upon
the
next
day
’
s
work
.
This
Willoughby
Smith
has
nothing
against
him
,
either
as
a
boy
at
Uppingham
or
as
a
young
man
at
Cambridge
.
I
have
seen
his
testimonials
,
and
from
the
first
he
was
a
decent
,
quiet
,
hard
-
working
fellow
,
with
no
weak
spot
in
him
at
all
.
And
yet
this
is
the
lad
who
has
met
his
death
this
morning
in
the
professor
’
s
study
under
circumstances
which
can
point
only
to
murder
.
