“
I
think
,
gentlemen
,
”
said
Holmes
,
quietly
,
“
that
we
had
best
take
up
our
position
behind
the
door
.
Every
precaution
is
necessary
when
dealing
with
such
a
fellow
.
You
will
need
your
handcuffs
,
Inspector
.
You
can
leave
the
talking
to
me
.
”
We
waited
in
silence
for
a
minute
—
one
of
those
minutes
which
one
can
never
forget
.
Then
the
door
opened
and
the
man
stepped
in
.
In
an
instant
Holmes
clapped
a
pistol
to
his
head
,
and
Martin
slipped
the
handcuffs
over
his
wrists
.
It
was
all
done
so
swiftly
and
deftly
that
the
fellow
was
helpless
before
he
knew
that
he
was
attacked
.
He
glared
from
one
to
the
other
of
us
with
a
pair
of
blazing
black
eyes
.
Then
he
burst
into
a
bitter
laugh
.
“
Well
,
gentlemen
,
you
have
the
drop
on
me
this
time
.
I
seem
to
have
knocked
up
against
something
hard
.
But
I
came
here
in
answer
to
a
letter
from
Mrs
.
Hilton
Cubitt
.
Don
’
t
tell
me
that
she
is
in
this
?
Don
’
t
tell
me
that
she
helped
to
set
a
trap
for
me
?
”
“
Mrs
.
Hilton
Cubitt
was
seriously
injured
,
and
is
at
death
’
s
door
.
”
The
man
gave
a
hoarse
cry
of
grief
,
which
rang
through
the
house
.
“
You
’
re
crazy
!
”
he
cried
,
fiercely
.
“
It
was
he
that
was
hurt
,
not
she
.
Who
would
have
hurt
little
Elsie
?
I
may
have
threatened
her
—
God
forgive
me
!
—
but
I
would
not
have
touched
a
hair
of
her
pretty
head
.
Take
it
back
—
you
!
Say
that
she
is
not
hurt
!
”
“
She
was
found
badly
wounded
,
by
the
side
of
her
dead
husband
.
”
He
sank
with
a
deep
groan
on
the
settee
and
buried
his
face
in
his
manacled
hands
.
For
five
minutes
he
was
silent
.
Then
he
raised
his
face
once
more
,
and
spoke
with
the
cold
composure
of
despair
.
“
I
have
nothing
to
hide
from
you
,
gentlemen
,
”
said
he
.
“
If
I
shot
the
man
he
had
his
shot
at
me
,
and
there
’
s
no
murder
in
that
.
But
if
you
think
I
could
have
hurt
that
woman
,
then
you
don
’
t
know
either
me
or
her
.
