The
inspector
shook
his
head
despondently
,
however
.
“
It
’
s
a
bad
job
,
”
he
repeated
;
“
and
so
Mr
.
Athelney
Jones
will
think
.
”
His
forecast
proved
to
be
correct
,
for
the
detective
looked
blank
enough
when
I
got
to
Baker
Street
and
showed
him
the
empty
box
.
They
had
only
just
arrived
,
Holmes
,
the
prisoner
,
and
he
,
for
they
had
changed
their
plans
so
far
as
to
report
themselves
at
a
station
upon
the
way
.
My
companion
lounged
in
his
arm
-
chair
with
his
usual
listless
expression
,
while
Small
sat
stolidly
opposite
to
him
with
his
wooden
leg
cocked
over
his
sound
one
.
As
I
exhibited
the
empty
box
he
leaned
back
in
his
chair
and
laughed
aloud
.
“
This
is
your
doing
,
Small
,
”
said
Athelney
Jones
,
angrily
.
“
Yes
,
I
have
put
it
away
where
you
shall
never
lay
hand
upon
it
,
”
he
cried
,
exultantly
.
“
It
is
my
treasure
;
and
if
I
can
’
t
have
the
loot
I
’
ll
take
darned
good
care
that
no
one
else
does
.
I
tell
you
that
no
living
man
has
any
right
to
it
,
unless
it
is
three
men
who
are
in
the
Andaman
convict
-
barracks
and
myself
.
I
know
now
that
I
cannot
have
the
use
of
it
,
and
I
know
that
they
cannot
.
I
have
acted
all
through
for
them
as
much
as
for
myself
.
It
’
s
been
the
sign
of
four
with
us
always
.
Well
I
know
that
they
would
have
had
me
do
just
what
I
have
done
,
and
throw
the
treasure
into
the
Thames
rather
than
let
it
go
to
kith
or
kin
of
Sholto
or
of
Morstan
.
It
was
not
to
make
them
rich
that
we
did
for
Achmet
.
You
’
ll
find
the
treasure
where
the
key
is
,
and
where
little
Tonga
is
.
When
I
saw
that
your
launch
must
catch
us
,
I
put
the
loot
away
in
a
safe
place
.
There
are
no
rupees
for
you
this
journey
.
”
“
You
are
deceiving
us
,
Small
,
”
said
Athelney
Jones
,
sternly
.
“
If
you
had
wished
to
throw
the
treasure
into
the
Thames
it
would
have
been
easier
for
you
to
have
thrown
box
and
all
.
”
“
Easier
for
me
to
throw
,
and
easier
for
you
to
recover
,
”
he
answered
,
with
a
shrewd
,
sidelong
look
.
“
The
man
that
was
clever
enough
to
hunt
me
down
is
clever
enough
to
pick
an
iron
box
from
the
bottom
of
a
river
.
Now
that
they
are
scattered
over
five
miles
or
so
,
it
may
be
a
harder
job
.
It
went
to
my
heart
to
do
it
,
though
.
I
was
half
mad
when
you
came
up
with
us
.
However
,
there
’
s
no
good
grieving
over
it
.
I
’
ve
had
ups
in
my
life
,
and
I
’
ve
had
downs
,
but
I
’
ve
learned
not
to
cry
over
spilled
milk
.
”
“
This
is
a
very
serious
matter
,
Small
,
”
said
the
detective
.
“
If
you
had
helped
justice
,
instead
of
thwarting
it
in
this
way
,
you
would
have
had
a
better
chance
at
your
trial
.
”
“
Justice
!
”
snarled
the
ex
-
convict
.
“
A
pretty
justice
!
Whose
loot
is
this
,
if
it
is
not
ours
?
Where
is
the
justice
that
I
should
give
it
up
to
those
who
have
never
earned
it
?
Look
how
I
have
earned
it
!
Twenty
long
years
in
that
fever
-
ridden
swamp
,
all
day
at
work
under
the
mangrove
-
tree
,
all
night
chained
up
in
the
filthy
convict
-
huts
,
bitten
by
mosquitoes
,
racked
with
ague
,
bullied
by
every
cursed
black
-
faced
policeman
who
loved
to
take
it
out
of
a
white
man
.
That
was
how
I
earned
the
Agra
treasure
;
and
you
talk
to
me
of
justice
because
I
cannot
bear
to
feel
that
I
have
paid
this
price
only
that
another
may
enjoy
it
!
I
would
rather
swing
a
score
of
times
,
or
have
one
of
Tonga
’
s
darts
in
my
hide
,
than
live
in
a
convict
’
s
cell
and
feel
that
another
man
is
at
his
ease
in
a
palace
with
the
money
that
should
be
mine
.
”
Small
had
dropped
his
mask
of
stoicism
,
and
all
this
came
out
in
a
wild
whirl
of
words
,
while
his
eyes
blazed
,
and
the
handcuffs
clanked
together
with
the
impassioned
movement
of
his
hands
.
I
could
understand
,
as
I
saw
the
fury
and
the
passion
of
the
man
,
that
it
was
no
groundless
or
unnatural
terror
which
had
possessed
Major
Sholto
when
he
first
learned
that
the
injured
convict
was
upon
his
track
.
