Does
that
strike
you
as
likely
?
Why
not
?
There
was
wine
in
each
glass
.
Exactly
,
but
there
was
beeswing
only
in
one
glass
.
You
must
have
noticed
that
fact
.
What
does
that
suggest
to
your
mind
?

The
last
glass
filled
would
be
most
likely
to
contain
beeswing
.
Not
at
all
.
The
bottle
was
full
of
it
,
and
it
is
inconceivable
that
the
first
two
glasses
were
clear
and
the
third
heavily
charged
with
it
.
There
are
two
possible
explanations
,
and
only
two
.
One
is
that
after
the
second
glass
was
filled
the
bottle
was
violently
agitated
,
and
so
the
third
glass
received
the
beeswing
.
That
does
not
appear
probable
.
No
,
no
,
I
am
sure
that
I
am
right
.
What
,
then
,
do
you
suppose
?
That
only
two
glasses
were
used
,
and
that
the
dregs
of
both
were
poured
into
a
third
glass
,
so
as
to
give
the
false
impression
that
three
people
had
been
here
.
In
that
way
all
the
beeswing
would
be
in
the
last
glass
,
would
it
not
?
Yes
,
I
am
convinced
that
this
is
so
.
But
if
I
have
hit
upon
the
true
explanation
of
this
one
small
phenomenon
,
then
in
an
instant
the
case
rises
from
the
commonplace
to
the
exceedingly
remarkable
,
for
it
can
only
mean
that
Lady
Brackenstall
and
her
maid
have
deliberately
lied
to
us
,
that
not
one
word
of
their
story
is
to
be
believed
,
that
they
have
some
very
strong
reason
for
covering
the
real
criminal
,
and
that
we
must
construct
our
case
for
ourselves
without
any
help
from
them
.
That
is
the
mission
which
now
lies
before
us
,
and
here
,
Watson
,
is
the
Sydenham
train
.

The
household
at
the
Abbey
Grange
were
much
surprised
at
our
return
,
but
Sherlock
Holmes
,
finding
that
Stanley
Hopkins
had
gone
off
to
report
to
headquarters
,
took
possession
of
the
dining
-
room
,
locked
the
door
upon
the
inside
,
and
devoted
himself
for
two
hours
to
one
of
those
minute
and
laborious
investigations
which
form
the
solid
basis
on
which
his
brilliant
edifices
of
deduction
were
reared
.
Seated
in
a
corner
like
an
interested
student
who
observes
the
demonstration
of
his
professor
,
I
followed
every
step
of
that
remarkable
research
.
The
window
,
the
curtains
,
the
carpet
,
the
chair
,
the
rope
each
in
turn
was
minutely
examined
and
duly
pondered
.
The
body
of
the
unfortunate
baronet
had
been
removed
,
and
all
else
remained
as
we
had
seen
it
in
the
morning
.
Finally
,
to
my
astonishment
,
Holmes
climbed
up
on
to
the
massive
mantelpiece
.
Far
above
his
head
hung
the
few
inches
of
red
cord
which
were
still
attached
to
the
wire
.
For
a
long
time
he
gazed
upward
at
it
,
and
then
in
an
attempt
to
get
nearer
to
it
he
rested
his
knee
upon
a
wooden
bracket
on
the
wall
.
This
brought
his
hand
within
a
few
inches
of
the
broken
end
of
the
rope
,
but
it
was
not
this
so
much
as
the
bracket
itself
which
seemed
to
engage
his
attention
.
Finally
,
he
sprang
down
with
an
ejaculation
of
satisfaction
.
It
s
all
right
,
Watson
,
said
he
.
We
have
got
our
case
one
of
the
most
remarkable
in
our
collection
.
But
,
dear
me
,
how
slow
-
witted
I
have
been
,
and
how
nearly
I
have
committed
the
blunder
of
my
lifetime
!
Now
,
I
think
that
,
with
a
few
missing
links
,
my
chain
is
almost
complete
.
