He
was
a
good
-
hearted
man
when
he
was
sober
,
but
a
perfect
fiend
when
he
was
drunk
,
or
rather
when
he
was
half
drunk
,
for
he
seldom
really
went
the
whole
way
.
The
devil
seemed
to
be
in
him
at
such
times
,
and
he
was
capable
of
anything
.
From
what
I
hear
,
in
spite
of
all
his
wealth
and
his
title
,
he
very
nearly
came
our
way
once
or
twice
.
There
was
a
scandal
about
his
drenching
a
dog
with
petroleum
and
setting
it
on
fire
—
her
ladyship
’
s
dog
,
to
make
the
matter
worse
—
and
that
was
only
hushed
up
with
difficulty
.
Then
he
threw
a
decanter
at
that
maid
,
Theresa
Wright
—
there
was
trouble
about
that
.
On
the
whole
,
and
between
ourselves
,
it
will
be
a
brighter
house
without
him
.
What
are
you
looking
at
now
?
”
Holmes
was
down
on
his
knees
,
examining
with
great
attention
the
knots
upon
the
red
cord
with
which
the
lady
had
been
secured
.
Then
he
carefully
scrutinized
the
broken
and
frayed
end
where
it
had
snapped
off
when
the
burglar
had
dragged
it
down
.
“
When
this
was
pulled
down
,
the
bell
in
the
kitchen
must
have
rung
loudly
,
”
he
remarked
.
“
No
one
could
hear
it
.
The
kitchen
stands
right
at
the
back
of
the
house
.
”
“
How
did
the
burglar
know
no
one
would
hear
it
?
How
dared
he
pull
at
a
bell
-
rope
in
that
reckless
fashion
?
”
“
Exactly
,
Mr
.
Holmes
,
exactly
.
You
put
the
very
question
which
I
have
asked
myself
again
and
again
.
There
can
be
no
doubt
that
this
fellow
must
have
known
the
house
and
its
habits
.
He
must
have
perfectly
understood
that
the
servants
would
all
be
in
bed
at
that
comparatively
early
hour
,
and
that
no
one
could
possibly
hear
a
bell
ring
in
the
kitchen
.
Therefore
,
he
must
have
been
in
close
league
with
one
of
the
servants
.
Surely
that
is
evident
.
But
there
are
eight
servants
,
and
all
of
good
character
.
”
“
Other
things
being
equal
,
”
said
Holmes
,
“
one
would
suspect
the
one
at
whose
head
the
master
threw
a
decanter
.
And
yet
that
would
involve
treachery
towards
the
mistress
to
whom
this
woman
seems
devoted
.
Well
,
well
,
the
point
is
a
minor
one
,
and
when
you
have
Randall
you
will
probably
find
no
difficulty
in
securing
his
accomplice
.
The
lady
’
s
story
certainly
seems
to
be
corroborated
,
if
it
needed
corroboration
,
by
every
detail
which
we
see
before
us
.
”
He
walked
to
the
French
window
and
threw
it
open
.
“
There
are
no
signs
here
,
but
the
ground
is
iron
hard
,
and
one
would
not
expect
them
.
I
see
that
these
candles
in
the
mantelpiece
have
been
lighted
.
”
“
Yes
,
it
was
by
their
light
and
that
of
the
lady
’
s
bedroom
candle
,
that
the
burglars
saw
their
way
about
.
”
“
And
what
did
they
take
?
”
