There
was
a
grumbling
sound
and
a
clanking
and
jarring
of
keys
.
The
door
swung
heavily
back
,
and
a
short
,
deep
-
chested
man
stood
in
the
opening
,
with
the
yellow
light
of
the
lantern
shining
upon
his
protruded
face
and
twinkling
distrustful
eyes
.
“
That
you
,
Mr
.
Thaddeus
?
But
who
are
the
others
?
I
had
no
orders
about
them
from
the
master
.
”
“
No
,
McMurdo
?
You
surprise
me
!
I
told
my
brother
last
night
that
I
should
bring
some
friends
.
”
“
He
ain
’
t
been
out
o
’
his
room
to
-
day
,
Mr
.
Thaddeus
,
and
I
have
no
orders
.
You
know
very
well
that
I
must
stick
to
regulations
.
I
can
let
you
in
,
but
your
friends
must
just
stop
where
they
are
.
”
This
was
an
unexpected
obstacle
.
Thaddeus
Sholto
looked
about
him
in
a
perplexed
and
helpless
manner
.
“
This
is
too
bad
of
you
,
McMurdo
!
”
he
said
.
“
If
I
guarantee
them
,
that
is
enough
for
you
.
There
is
the
young
lady
,
too
.
She
cannot
wait
on
the
public
road
at
this
hour
.
”
“
Very
sorry
,
Mr
.
Thaddeus
,
”
said
the
porter
,
inexorably
.
“
Folk
may
be
friends
o
’
yours
,
and
yet
no
friends
o
’
the
master
’
s
.
He
pays
me
well
to
do
my
duty
,
and
my
duty
I
’
ll
do
.
I
don
’
t
know
none
o
’
your
friends
.
”
“
Oh
,
yes
you
do
,
McMurdo
,
”
cried
Sherlock
Holmes
,
genially
.
“
I
don
’
t
think
you
can
have
forgotten
me
.
Don
’
t
you
remember
the
amateur
who
fought
three
rounds
with
you
at
Alison
’
s
rooms
on
the
night
of
your
benefit
four
years
back
?
”
“
Not
Mr
.
Sherlock
Holmes
!
”
roared
the
prize
-
fighter
.
“
God
’
s
truth
!
how
could
I
have
mistook
you
?
If
instead
o
’
standin
’
there
so
quiet
you
had
just
stepped
up
and
given
me
that
cross
-
hit
of
yours
under
the
jaw
,
I
’
d
ha
’
known
you
without
a
question
.
Ah
,
you
’
re
one
that
has
wasted
your
gifts
,
you
have
!
You
might
have
aimed
high
,
if
you
had
joined
the
fancy
.
”
“
You
see
,
Watson
,
if
all
else
fails
me
I
have
still
one
of
the
scientific
professions
open
to
me
,
”
said
Holmes
,
laughing
.
“
Our
friend
won
’
t
keep
us
out
in
the
cold
now
,
I
am
sure
.
”
