She
was
an
interesting
person
,
this
stern
Australian
nurse
—
taciturn
,
suspicious
,
ungracious
,
it
took
some
time
before
Holmes
’
s
pleasant
manner
and
frank
acceptance
of
all
that
she
said
thawed
her
into
a
corresponding
amiability
.
She
did
not
attempt
to
conceal
her
hatred
for
her
late
employer
.
“
Yes
,
sir
,
it
is
true
that
he
threw
the
decanter
at
me
.
I
heard
him
call
my
mistress
a
name
,
and
I
told
him
that
he
would
not
dare
to
speak
so
if
her
brother
had
been
there
.
Then
it
was
that
he
threw
it
at
me
.
He
might
have
thrown
a
dozen
if
he
had
but
left
my
bonny
bird
alone
.
He
was
forever
ill
-
treating
her
,
and
she
too
proud
to
complain
.
She
will
not
even
tell
me
all
that
he
has
done
to
her
.
She
never
told
me
of
those
marks
on
her
arm
that
you
saw
this
morning
,
but
I
know
very
well
that
they
come
from
a
stab
with
a
hatpin
.
The
sly
devil
—
God
forgive
me
that
I
should
speak
of
him
so
,
now
that
he
is
dead
!
But
a
devil
he
was
,
if
ever
one
walked
the
earth
.
He
was
all
honey
when
first
we
met
him
—
only
eighteen
months
ago
,
and
we
both
feel
as
if
it
were
eighteen
years
.
She
had
only
just
arrived
in
London
.
Yes
,
it
was
her
first
voyage
—
she
had
never
been
from
home
before
.
He
won
her
with
his
title
and
his
money
and
his
false
London
ways
.
If
she
made
a
mistake
she
has
paid
for
it
,
if
ever
a
woman
did
.
What
month
did
we
meet
him
?
Well
,
I
tell
you
it
was
just
after
we
arrived
.
We
arrived
in
June
,
and
it
was
July
.
They
were
married
in
January
of
last
year
.
Yes
,
she
is
down
in
the
morning
-
room
again
,
and
I
have
no
doubt
she
will
see
you
,
but
you
must
not
ask
too
much
of
her
,
for
she
has
gone
through
all
that
flesh
and
blood
will
stand
.
”
Lady
Brackenstall
was
reclining
on
the
same
couch
,
but
looked
brighter
than
before
.
The
maid
had
entered
with
us
,
and
began
once
more
to
foment
the
bruise
upon
her
mistress
’
s
brow
.
“
I
hope
,
”
said
the
lady
,
“
that
you
have
not
come
to
cross
-
examine
me
again
?
”
“
No
,
”
Holmes
answered
,
in
his
gentlest
voice
,
“
I
will
not
cause
you
any
unnecessary
trouble
,
Lady
Brackenstall
,
and
my
whole
desire
is
to
make
things
easy
for
you
,
for
I
am
convinced
that
you
are
a
much
-
tried
woman
.
If
you
will
treat
me
as
a
friend
and
trust
me
,
you
may
find
that
I
will
justify
your
trust
.
”
“
What
do
you
want
me
to
do
?
”
“
To
tell
me
the
truth
.
”
“
Mr
.
Holmes
!
”
“
No
,
no
,
Lady
Brackenstall
—
it
is
no
use
.
You
may
have
heard
of
any
little
reputation
which
I
possess
.
I
will
stake
it
all
on
the
fact
that
your
story
is
an
absolute
fabrication
.
