These
details
only
struck
our
attention
afterwards
,
for
our
thoughts
were
entirely
absorbed
by
the
terrible
object
which
lay
upon
the
tigerskin
hearthrug
in
front
of
the
fire
.
It
was
the
body
of
a
tall
,
well
-
made
man
,
about
forty
years
of
age
.
He
lay
upon
his
back
,
his
face
upturned
,
with
his
white
teeth
grinning
through
his
short
,
black
beard
.
His
two
clenched
hands
were
raised
above
his
head
,
and
a
heavy
,
blackthorn
stick
lay
across
them
.
His
dark
,
handsome
,
aquiline
features
were
convulsed
into
a
spasm
of
vindictive
hatred
,
which
had
set
his
dead
face
in
a
terribly
fiendish
expression
.
He
had
evidently
been
in
his
bed
when
the
alarm
had
broken
out
,
for
he
wore
a
foppish
,
embroidered
nightshirt
,
and
his
bare
feet
projected
from
his
trousers
.
His
head
was
horribly
injured
,
and
the
whole
room
bore
witness
to
the
savage
ferocity
of
the
blow
which
had
struck
him
down
.
Beside
him
lay
the
heavy
poker
,
bent
into
a
curve
by
the
concussion
.
Holmes
examined
both
it
and
the
indescribable
wreck
which
it
had
wrought
.
“
He
must
be
a
powerful
man
,
this
elder
Randall
,
”
he
remarked
.
“
Yes
,
”
said
Hopkins
.
“
I
have
some
record
of
the
fellow
,
and
he
is
a
rough
customer
.
”
“
You
should
have
no
difficulty
in
getting
him
.
”
“
Not
the
slightest
.
We
have
been
on
the
look
-
out
for
him
,
and
there
was
some
idea
that
he
had
got
away
to
America
.
Now
that
we
know
that
the
gang
are
here
,
I
don
’
t
see
how
they
can
escape
.
We
have
the
news
at
every
seaport
already
,
and
a
reward
will
be
offered
before
evening
.
What
beats
me
is
how
they
could
have
done
so
mad
a
thing
,
knowing
that
the
lady
could
describe
them
and
that
we
could
not
fail
to
recognize
the
description
.
”
“
Exactly
.
One
would
have
expected
that
they
would
silence
Lady
Brackenstall
as
well
.
”
“
They
may
not
have
realized
,
”
I
suggested
,
“
that
she
had
recovered
from
her
faint
.
”
“
That
is
likely
enough
.
If
she
seemed
to
be
senseless
,
they
would
not
take
her
life
.
What
about
this
poor
fellow
,
Hopkins
?
I
seem
to
have
heard
some
queer
stories
about
him
.
