WEBVTT 1 00:00:01.159 --> 00:00:04.040 And now here we are again on our usual visit 2 00:00:04.040 --> 00:00:06.799 to doctor Watson. He's waiting for us in his study, 3 00:00:07.080 --> 00:00:10.320 a cheerful blaze crackling on the heart. And better leave 4 00:00:10.400 --> 00:00:13.560 to seal, mister Manning. Hasn't the weather been atrocious today? 5 00:00:14.240 --> 00:00:15.960 I was beginning to wonder if you'd be able to 6 00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:18.679 get here tonight through all this fog. Yes, it certainly 7 00:00:18.839 --> 00:00:22.480 is what you Londoners call a regular pea soupers. Indeed, 8 00:00:23.120 --> 00:00:26.440 it reminds me of the adventure of the missing submarine Plans, 9 00:00:27.039 --> 00:00:30.000 the case it was solved in the underground, underground what 10 00:00:30.120 --> 00:00:33.039 you Americans call it a subway. Yes, but why has 11 00:00:33.079 --> 00:00:35.119 a solution in a subway got to do with the 12 00:00:35.159 --> 00:00:35.799 foggy nights? 13 00:00:35.840 --> 00:00:36.039 Ma'am? 14 00:00:36.119 --> 00:00:38.560 You see? The affairs started in weather exactly like this. 15 00:00:39.079 --> 00:00:42.000 It was a third week in November, the year eighteen 16 00:00:42.079 --> 00:00:45.600 hundred and ninety five to be exacted. On Monday, a 17 00:00:45.719 --> 00:00:49.560 dense yellow fog had settled down upon London. On Thursday 18 00:00:49.640 --> 00:00:54.799 it was still there, thickier and murkier than ever. At first, 19 00:00:54.840 --> 00:00:57.719 Homes had turned his nervous energy to cross indexing. 20 00:00:57.280 --> 00:00:58.560 His huge reference books. 21 00:00:59.079 --> 00:01:02.399 But when after pushing our breakfast chairs back for the 22 00:01:02.479 --> 00:01:05.640 for the fourth morning we saw the greasy browns were 23 00:01:06.079 --> 00:01:09.719 still drifting past the windows homes his patient's snap. 24 00:01:19.599 --> 00:01:20.000 Homes. 25 00:01:20.040 --> 00:01:22.239 If you must pace around in circles, I wish you 26 00:01:22.359 --> 00:01:24.480 change directions now and then you're. 27 00:01:23.840 --> 00:01:24.680 You make him a dizzy. 28 00:01:25.040 --> 00:01:28.200 It's inexcusable. What's an inexcusable? No initiative, no imagination, nothing 29 00:01:28.200 --> 00:01:30.599 ever gets done. If you're alluding to the inactivity in 30 00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:33.040 this last session of parliament, My dear, I'm not speaking 31 00:01:33.079 --> 00:01:35.879 of our lawmakers, Watson, but of our law breakers. A 32 00:01:35.879 --> 00:01:37.640 London criminal is certainly a dull fellow. 33 00:01:37.680 --> 00:01:38.239 It makes you, sir. 34 00:01:38.439 --> 00:01:40.400 We'll look out of the window. I deal wellther for 35 00:01:40.439 --> 00:01:44.599 committing a crime. The criminal advances, and his intended victim 36 00:01:44.680 --> 00:01:48.680 practically unseen, He comes his and disappears into tinnair. There 37 00:01:48.719 --> 00:01:53.439 have been numerous petty theft hardly pity fifth pickpockets, raggamuffins. 38 00:01:53.719 --> 00:01:58.159 What's the country coming to now? If I were a criminal, Watson. 39 00:01:58.159 --> 00:01:59.799 I for one would move to America. 40 00:02:00.599 --> 00:02:03.280 Hello, hello, missus. Hudson is not getting excited? What's up? 41 00:02:03.319 --> 00:02:08.280 I wonder, yes, very well, thank you? 42 00:02:09.800 --> 00:02:10.960 Oh what's it? Sir? 43 00:02:11.360 --> 00:02:12.199 Wait until I open it? 44 00:02:12.199 --> 00:02:17.719 Can't you? Ah, dear, me, what next? Most unusual, Watson? 45 00:02:17.759 --> 00:02:18.599 Most unusual? 46 00:02:18.759 --> 00:02:21.000 What's most unusual? Watson? What's it? 47 00:02:21.120 --> 00:02:24.520 Sir? Oh, it's from my brother Micraft. You remember him. 48 00:02:24.840 --> 00:02:27.039 He helped us solve the case of the Greek interpreter. 49 00:02:27.240 --> 00:02:27.879 He's coming here? 50 00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:30.159 Why not? What's so phenomenable? Why not? 51 00:02:30.199 --> 00:02:30.479 Why not? 52 00:02:30.560 --> 00:02:32.479 Indeed, it's as startling as it would be to me 53 00:02:32.560 --> 00:02:34.840 the tramcar coming down the country lane. Yes, yes, now 54 00:02:34.840 --> 00:02:37.000 I come to think of it. Microft is rather like 55 00:02:37.000 --> 00:02:40.439 a tramcar. His rails lead from his pell Mell Lodgings 56 00:02:40.439 --> 00:02:43.360 to the Diogenes Club in Whitehall. That's his circle. I 57 00:02:43.439 --> 00:02:45.400 wonder what up people can have derailed it? 58 00:02:45.479 --> 00:02:46.639 Doesn't the telegram explain? 59 00:02:47.080 --> 00:02:49.960 It says, uh must see you about cadaggon West coming 60 00:02:49.960 --> 00:02:50.560 at once. 61 00:02:52.280 --> 00:02:52.560 Dagon. 62 00:02:52.639 --> 00:02:55.240 Why that's the young Chapel's farm. Dead in the underground 63 00:02:55.240 --> 00:02:56.960 on Tuesday morning? And I remember reading about it in 64 00:02:57.000 --> 00:02:57.439 the papers. 65 00:02:57.479 --> 00:02:59.439 Oh, a man that parents have. 66 00:02:59.439 --> 00:03:02.680 Fallen out of would train and killed himself. He hadn't 67 00:03:02.719 --> 00:03:05.360 been robbed, and there was no reason to suspect violence. 68 00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:10.560 Quite an uninteresting case, if I remember. Yet, it's serious 69 00:03:10.680 --> 00:03:12.520 enough to cause Micraft to offer his habits. 70 00:03:12.759 --> 00:03:15.360 No, what'son this must be an extraordinary event. 71 00:03:16.120 --> 00:03:19.039 And you recall any other facts about the affair. Yes, 72 00:03:19.240 --> 00:03:21.599 I come to think that there was one unusual bit 73 00:03:21.639 --> 00:03:24.680 about came out of the inquest. They were unable to 74 00:03:24.719 --> 00:03:27.240 ascertain at what point he entered the train which his 75 00:03:27.240 --> 00:03:30.280 ticket was missing. Strange, but articles were found on the 76 00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:33.000 body two pounds fifteen. 77 00:03:33.039 --> 00:03:34.400 I believe it was a checkbook. 78 00:03:34.479 --> 00:03:37.199 And oh yes, yes there's two dress circle tickets for 79 00:03:37.199 --> 00:03:40.280 the Woolage theater, the dated for that evening. Theater tickets Eh. 80 00:03:40.680 --> 00:03:44.240 And it wasn't suicide. A man doesn't procure theater tickets 81 00:03:44.240 --> 00:03:46.000 for the evening on which he intends to end his life. 82 00:03:46.080 --> 00:03:46.680 Anything else? 83 00:03:47.039 --> 00:03:49.840 A small packet of technical papers. 84 00:03:49.439 --> 00:03:52.800 And technical papers? What kind of technical papers? 85 00:03:52.800 --> 00:03:54.680 Who knew? Any newspapers didn't. 86 00:03:54.520 --> 00:03:57.680 Say as serious as that? What did the young men do? 87 00:03:57.879 --> 00:04:00.000 Where was employed? It was a clerk at Woolad's, auss 88 00:04:00.360 --> 00:04:04.479 government employ There we have it, Watson, British government, wie 89 00:04:04.599 --> 00:04:08.560 Arsenal technical papers. That's why Mycroft is involved in this affair. 90 00:04:08.639 --> 00:04:12.039 I don't understand, No, I suppose not, Watson. Have I 91 00:04:12.080 --> 00:04:13.560 ever told you what Mycroft is? 92 00:04:14.080 --> 00:04:15.039 Your brother? Of course? 93 00:04:15.159 --> 00:04:17.959 No, no, no, Watson, do you have to be so dense. 94 00:04:18.360 --> 00:04:20.800 I mean, do you know what he does? I seem 95 00:04:20.839 --> 00:04:23.319 to have some vague recollection that you once told me 96 00:04:23.360 --> 00:04:25.920 that he'd held some small office under the British government. 97 00:04:26.040 --> 00:04:27.879 It would be more accurate to say, in a way 98 00:04:27.959 --> 00:04:31.319 that he is the British government. What his position is unique, 99 00:04:31.360 --> 00:04:33.720 He made it for himself. Is the tidiest and most 100 00:04:33.759 --> 00:04:36.399 orderly brain of any man alive, with a great capacity 101 00:04:36.439 --> 00:04:40.079 for storing facts and giving them the proper interpretation. The 102 00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:42.120 conclusions of every government department. 103 00:04:41.800 --> 00:04:42.639 Have passed on to him. 104 00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:45.160 He's the central exchange, the clearing house. Again and again 105 00:04:45.199 --> 00:04:47.439 his word has decided the national policy. He thinks of 106 00:04:47.480 --> 00:04:50.160 nothing else, Nothing else can lure him from his contemplations. 107 00:04:50.319 --> 00:04:51.279 It he's coming here. 108 00:04:51.560 --> 00:04:54.000 Yes, Jupiter is descending on us today. 109 00:04:54.360 --> 00:04:56.160 What on earth given he can happen? 110 00:04:56.240 --> 00:04:59.519 And Watson, that sounds suspiciously like a bad pun a 111 00:05:00.120 --> 00:05:02.560 is if I'm not mistaken to speak for himself. Come in, 112 00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:05.720 Come in, hello, my craft, what's up? What's up? You 113 00:05:05.720 --> 00:05:09.319 look posted a knowing business sherdrock Mester knowing you know 114 00:05:09.399 --> 00:05:12.360 how I dislike holding my head. It's extremely awkward for 115 00:05:12.399 --> 00:05:14.639 me to come away from the office, particularly with sim 116 00:05:14.680 --> 00:05:17.399 It's presence, states, dear me, to sit down. I can't 117 00:05:17.439 --> 00:05:20.600 sit down, you know what's and of course here I'm 118 00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:22.560 trying to find a share and I can trust the 119 00:05:22.600 --> 00:05:24.759 old man. I'm better take the sofa. If you certainly 120 00:05:24.759 --> 00:05:27.240 hadn't got any thinner, I've never seen the Prime Minister, 121 00:05:27.319 --> 00:05:31.839 Sir upset Admiralty. It's buzzing, I can upset behind. You 122 00:05:31.920 --> 00:05:32.800 know anything about the case? 123 00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:32.879 Now? 124 00:05:32.959 --> 00:05:36.399 What'sn't just been telling me what was in the newspapers? 125 00:05:36.560 --> 00:05:39.120 Just what were the technical papers found on the body. 126 00:05:40.160 --> 00:05:43.480 For the love of Heaven, not so loud, Those papers 127 00:05:43.519 --> 00:05:45.399 which sir wretched youth head in his pocket were none 128 00:05:45.399 --> 00:05:48.120 other than the Times of the Bruce Partington Submarine, the 129 00:05:48.120 --> 00:05:52.199 submarine which would completely revolutionize nabal warfare. The most important 130 00:05:52.199 --> 00:05:55.639 papers in our government archives. Under no circumstances going to 131 00:05:55.680 --> 00:05:58.199 be removed from the office. Even the Chief Constructor of 132 00:05:58.199 --> 00:06:00.199 the Navy was forced to go to Willis Off to 133 00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:02.639 consult them. And yet we find them in the pockets 134 00:06:02.800 --> 00:06:05.720 of a dead junior park in the heart of London. Yeah, 135 00:06:05.800 --> 00:06:08.560 from an official point of view, it's deplorable, my dear Microft, 136 00:06:08.639 --> 00:06:12.040 simply deplorable. Human love shut up. But this country won't 137 00:06:12.079 --> 00:06:14.240 be safe until they are recovered. I thought you said 138 00:06:14.240 --> 00:06:15.759 that they were found in the pocket of this chap 139 00:06:15.800 --> 00:06:19.040 cadug and West. Ten papers taken from Woolwich. Seven were 140 00:06:19.079 --> 00:06:22.199 found the pockets of Cadugan West. Three are still missing, 141 00:06:22.240 --> 00:06:26.480 the three essential ones. To recover those three papers is imperative. 142 00:06:26.839 --> 00:06:29.680 The peace of Europe depends on nice of the problem. 143 00:06:29.720 --> 00:06:32.839 It wasn't. Why did Cadugan West take the papers? How 144 00:06:32.839 --> 00:06:35.560 did he die? How did his body reach the place 145 00:06:35.560 --> 00:06:38.240 where it was found? And where are the missing papers? 146 00:06:38.480 --> 00:06:40.560 Find the answers to those questions, Shellarck, and you will 147 00:06:40.560 --> 00:06:42.879 have done your country an invaluable service. Why don't you 148 00:06:42.879 --> 00:06:45.759 sar it yourself? Microft I leave you good. Possibly, but 149 00:06:45.920 --> 00:06:48.439 it's a question of digging out details. Give me the 150 00:06:48.480 --> 00:06:50.959 details and I can give you the solution from an armchair. 151 00:06:51.680 --> 00:06:54.040 No, when it comes to running about and cross. 152 00:06:53.839 --> 00:06:56.439 Questioning railway guards and lying on one's face with a 153 00:06:56.519 --> 00:07:01.399 lens to one's eye, no, no, that's not my metair. Besides, 154 00:07:01.439 --> 00:07:05.040 your figure prevents your taking such an andignified position. Nay, 155 00:07:05.519 --> 00:07:09.319 very well? Be that part of it was Hey Watson, good, 156 00:07:09.639 --> 00:07:11.560 I'd cut a cab waiting outside to take the place 157 00:07:11.560 --> 00:07:12.519 where the body is found. 158 00:07:12.839 --> 00:07:14.480 I can give you the details on the way. 159 00:07:15.439 --> 00:07:29.439 Oh my God, who was the official guardian of these 160 00:07:29.439 --> 00:07:33.040 famous papers. No lesser personage than Sir James Walter, gentleman 161 00:07:33.040 --> 00:07:34.399 who has grown gray in the service. 162 00:07:34.720 --> 00:07:36.839 His patriotism is beyond the suspicion. 163 00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:39.000 And a bachelor, if I'm not mistaken, lives with his brother. Yes, 164 00:07:39.240 --> 00:07:41.720 here's the house of Admiral Sinclair mark the square. During 165 00:07:41.720 --> 00:07:44.399 the whole of the evening when this accident occured, the 166 00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:47.079 Admiral vouches for him. He's one of the two who 167 00:07:47.120 --> 00:07:48.759 have the only keys to save his keep. Is with 168 00:07:48.839 --> 00:07:51.160 him all evening right, his key the key to the building. 169 00:07:51.160 --> 00:07:53.079 The keys are room. 170 00:07:53.199 --> 00:07:55.480 Who was the man with the other key? The senior Clark, 171 00:07:55.519 --> 00:07:59.439 mister Sidney Johnson, man of forty married silent morose An 172 00:07:59.439 --> 00:08:02.120 excellent this record and the alibi, He too had his 173 00:08:02.199 --> 00:08:04.199 key with him, seems to spend the evening playing a 174 00:08:04.240 --> 00:08:06.199 game of drafts to the green grocer around the corner 175 00:08:06.199 --> 00:08:09.000 from his lodgings. Of course, he has only the word 176 00:08:09.040 --> 00:08:10.879 of this green grocer to back him. All come, come, 177 00:08:10.920 --> 00:08:13.360 my dear micraft. No class discriminations please. The word of 178 00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:15.000 a green grocer is often just as good as that 179 00:08:15.040 --> 00:08:16.879 of an admiral. And what about kurdugg and West? 180 00:08:17.000 --> 00:08:18.040 He had a good reputation. 181 00:08:18.199 --> 00:08:21.680 He bit hot headed, with straightens least ever and posso. 182 00:08:22.360 --> 00:08:24.839 He was next to city Johnson to the office. His 183 00:08:24.959 --> 00:08:27.360 duties brought him in the daily personal contact with the plans. 184 00:08:27.399 --> 00:08:29.000 No one else ever had the handling of them. 185 00:08:29.079 --> 00:08:30.120 Oh, it's perfectly clear. 186 00:08:30.199 --> 00:08:32.919 He must have taken not so fast, but not so fast. 187 00:08:33.519 --> 00:08:35.759 Who locked them up that night, mister Sidney Johnson? 188 00:08:36.559 --> 00:08:38.840 They were a value commercially, I mean, oh yes, there's 189 00:08:38.840 --> 00:08:40.879 no doubt that West could have got several thousands for 190 00:08:40.919 --> 00:08:43.799 them very easily. And yet only a small amount of 191 00:08:43.840 --> 00:08:44.840 money was found on the body. 192 00:08:44.879 --> 00:08:46.080 Perhaps the buyer. 193 00:08:45.879 --> 00:08:49.360 Took it back off feed murdered West. What puzzles me 194 00:08:49.519 --> 00:08:52.480 is how did West obtain possession of those papers. To 195 00:08:52.559 --> 00:08:54.440 do so, he must have had a false key, several 196 00:08:54.519 --> 00:08:56.799 false keys, shirlark. He had opened the building and the 197 00:08:56.879 --> 00:08:58.879 room as well. Oh well, well, well, several false keys. 198 00:08:58.879 --> 00:09:00.960 Then let me see, let me see. I suppose Wes 199 00:09:01.080 --> 00:09:03.320 did take the papers and went into town and on 200 00:09:03.360 --> 00:09:05.039 the way back to wood Edge, where he is hoping 201 00:09:05.080 --> 00:09:08.080 to replace the papers he's killed and thrown from the train. 202 00:09:08.320 --> 00:09:09.679 But the spot where the body was. 203 00:09:09.679 --> 00:09:12.279 Found is considerably past the station for London Bridge, which 204 00:09:12.279 --> 00:09:15.080 is the rip to willw It's interesting also, if young 205 00:09:15.080 --> 00:09:17.120 West did make an appointment for some foreign agent to 206 00:09:17.120 --> 00:09:19.360 sell the papers that night, why didn't he keep the 207 00:09:19.399 --> 00:09:23.919 evening clear? Why buy two Tiller tickets exactly? Furthermore, he 208 00:09:23.960 --> 00:09:26.480 actually escorted his fiance halfway there before. 209 00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:28.879 He disappeared blind. That's what it looks like to me. 210 00:09:29.000 --> 00:09:30.679 Why did he take the papers at all? Why not 211 00:09:30.759 --> 00:09:32.480 copy them out in the office and sell the copies? 212 00:09:32.519 --> 00:09:34.919 He certainly had plenty of opportunities to do so. And 213 00:09:35.000 --> 00:09:37.440 why the absence of his underground ticket? And that's the 214 00:09:37.440 --> 00:09:39.480 ticket will have shown us which station was near the 215 00:09:39.519 --> 00:09:40.200 agent's house. 216 00:09:40.840 --> 00:09:42.600 So the murderer destroyed it. 217 00:09:42.679 --> 00:09:48.320 Good Watson, very good? Yet I wonder, well, here's the 218 00:09:48.399 --> 00:09:51.240 underground station. The railway authorities have sent a man around 219 00:09:51.240 --> 00:09:52.879 to show the exact place where the body was found. 220 00:09:52.919 --> 00:09:54.120 You won't change your mind and come with us. 221 00:09:54.200 --> 00:09:56.639 We're crawling around that black hole on my hands and knees. 222 00:09:56.759 --> 00:10:00.080 Not very likely. Well, I shall expect to report on 223 00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:00.559 your refics. 224 00:10:01.039 --> 00:10:03.480 I never expect too much microft, never expect too much. 225 00:10:12.000 --> 00:10:14.799 Before we follow Holmes and Watson into the mazes of 226 00:10:14.840 --> 00:10:17.600 the London subway system. I have a word of advice. 227 00:10:18.360 --> 00:10:21.279 Every year colds cause a lot of sickness every year. 228 00:10:21.279 --> 00:10:24.000 They cause a lot of expense and time lost from work. 229 00:10:24.519 --> 00:10:29.200 Always regard a cold seriously, Always treat it earnestly. At 230 00:10:29.200 --> 00:10:32.919 the first sign of a cold, take Groves bromo quinine tablets. 231 00:10:33.399 --> 00:10:36.200 Romo Quinine tablets are famous relief for the distress of 232 00:10:36.200 --> 00:10:40.279 a cold.

Get them at 243 00:11:08.320 --> 00:11:11.799 any drug store a few cents a box. Ask specifically 244 00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:14.759 for Groves g R O v E S Bromo d 245 00:11:14.960 --> 00:11:17.879 r O m o quinine q u I M I 246 00:11:18.000 --> 00:11:33.600 n E Groves Bromo quinine tablets. This is why I said, 247 00:11:33.919 --> 00:11:36.759 step right along the tracks if it isn't safe, supposing 248 00:11:36.759 --> 00:11:39.759 the trains should come shooting around that curve. Oh that's all, Roger, 249 00:11:40.159 --> 00:11:43.279 there won't be another for five minutes. Anyway, Here we 250 00:11:43.320 --> 00:11:46.360 are say, this is where they found the body, right here, 251 00:11:46.399 --> 00:11:50.039 alongside the rails, lying on its face. It was spooky 252 00:11:50.279 --> 00:11:53.679 playse their homes. I could catacombs only without the skeletons. 253 00:11:54.879 --> 00:11:57.159 Anything in his hands when they found him luser, but 254 00:11:57.279 --> 00:12:00.679 they clinched what spread out as if he were protecting him. Now, 255 00:12:00.720 --> 00:12:03.720 so there was what you might call relax by the 256 00:12:03.720 --> 00:12:04.720 times it all has happened. 257 00:12:04.840 --> 00:12:05.039 Well. 258 00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:07.679 So the trainee was oisted out of as near as 259 00:12:07.720 --> 00:12:10.600 we can figure, passed along a yet about midnight on Mandals. 260 00:12:10.639 --> 00:12:12.519 All the carriages have been examined for signs of violence. 261 00:12:12.559 --> 00:12:15.720 I suppose it didn't find that, not even the missing ticket. 262 00:12:16.039 --> 00:12:18.279 There was a passenger to all Gate on the ordinary 263 00:12:18.279 --> 00:12:21.559 train about eleven forty. It was he said he heard 264 00:12:21.600 --> 00:12:25.039 heavy dad bark, something strike in the line just before 265 00:12:25.039 --> 00:12:27.799 the train reached this station. But it was so foggy, 266 00:12:27.799 --> 00:12:29.159 he said he was best if he could see what 267 00:12:29.200 --> 00:12:33.799 it was. Homes, what's the matter? Were you steering at 268 00:12:33.799 --> 00:12:36.120 the curb? Watson? Whatever of the rails? 269 00:12:36.240 --> 00:12:37.320 What do you what do you mean? 270 00:12:37.559 --> 00:12:39.320 I suppose that not many curves as abrupt as this 271 00:12:39.399 --> 00:12:40.559 and now so I can't. 272 00:12:40.320 --> 00:12:42.399 Say, as there is, what have curves got to do 273 00:12:42.440 --> 00:12:42.600 in this? 274 00:12:42.960 --> 00:12:47.639 An indication? What's a million indication? Hmm? Unique, perfectly unique 275 00:12:47.759 --> 00:12:51.320 and yep, why not. I don't see any indications of 276 00:12:51.320 --> 00:12:53.200 bleeding on the line now, so there wasn't any to 277 00:12:53.240 --> 00:12:55.759 speak of us. But I understand there was a considerable wound. 278 00:12:55.879 --> 00:12:59.480 The bone was crashed right and as Holmes, that is 279 00:12:59.480 --> 00:13:03.120 the train it's coming as well. Runds be also were up. 280 00:13:03.159 --> 00:13:04.960 He did a placement to try and switches on what 281 00:13:05.080 --> 00:13:06.759 to run. It's just a round the curve. Well we 282 00:13:06.759 --> 00:13:08.960 don't have a pasage, which yes, we run faster, faster. 283 00:13:09.320 --> 00:13:10.039 There's the switch up. 284 00:13:10.080 --> 00:13:12.279 Head, come on, he comes, Tay. Now, we'll make it. 285 00:13:12.279 --> 00:13:14.440 We'll make it a justin watch them from a love 286 00:13:14.440 --> 00:13:14.879 of heaven. 287 00:13:15.000 --> 00:13:16.000 You're on the wrong track. 288 00:13:19.159 --> 00:13:30.399 Well that was an iriscape home I must say, my 289 00:13:30.480 --> 00:13:32.559 knees is so shaking. Look at the shoulder my coat 290 00:13:32.600 --> 00:13:34.399 where you pulled me like a think for you that 291 00:13:34.480 --> 00:13:34.840 I did. 292 00:13:35.080 --> 00:13:36.679 Where are we off to now? And then this fog? 293 00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:39.759 Yes, it's a nice afternoon. Supposed to pay a few calls, 294 00:13:40.120 --> 00:13:42.360 I think, Sir James Water claims our first attention. After 295 00:13:42.399 --> 00:13:44.759 that we might drop in on miss Westbridge whisper. She 296 00:13:45.360 --> 00:13:47.720 is a dug in West's fiance and the last person 297 00:13:47.759 --> 00:13:48.559 to see him alive. 298 00:13:48.960 --> 00:13:51.240 Ohs, we seem to be going around in circles. 299 00:13:51.679 --> 00:13:54.159 We've accomplished absolutely nothing so far except to get to her, 300 00:13:54.200 --> 00:13:56.879 to get ourselves nearly a knowledge in the underground after 301 00:13:56.919 --> 00:13:57.320 all us. 302 00:13:57.200 --> 00:13:57.720 Perfectly of this. 303 00:13:57.879 --> 00:14:00.000 The young man had a quarrel with someone, or probably 304 00:14:00.240 --> 00:14:02.279 to the agent to whom he sell the papers, and 305 00:14:02.399 --> 00:14:03.159 got himself. 306 00:14:02.879 --> 00:14:04.320 Thrown out of the rail with the carriage for his paying. 307 00:14:04.360 --> 00:14:06.519 I disagree with you, Myia, Watson. His body fell from 308 00:14:06.519 --> 00:14:08.679 the roof of the carriage where it had been placed. 309 00:14:09.039 --> 00:14:11.440 Kadugan West met his death elsewhere the. 310 00:14:11.519 --> 00:14:12.679 Roof of the train. 311 00:14:13.120 --> 00:14:16.279 Consider the facts, Watson, Hey, the curve in the tracks. 312 00:14:16.440 --> 00:14:18.039 The body is found at the spot where the train 313 00:14:18.120 --> 00:14:20.720 pitches and sways as it comes around the points be 314 00:14:21.559 --> 00:14:24.559 there's no ticket. See there were no signs of bleeding 315 00:14:24.559 --> 00:14:28.080 on the line because the body had bled elsewhere. Everything 316 00:14:28.120 --> 00:14:31.279 FETs together. But where was the body placed on the train? 317 00:14:31.519 --> 00:14:32.919 I think I can make a fair guess of bet, 318 00:14:32.919 --> 00:14:36.279 my dear Watson, Ah, here we are. This is the 319 00:14:36.320 --> 00:14:39.720 famous official villa of Sir James Water and that, if 320 00:14:39.720 --> 00:14:41.960 I'm not mistaken. Is his brother Colonel Valentine just coming 321 00:14:42.000 --> 00:14:42.559 out of her house? 322 00:14:42.799 --> 00:14:45.320 What's favailable? The money? He looks possibly hanted? 323 00:14:45.679 --> 00:14:47.480 Pardon me, Colonel Valentine, But can you tell me if 324 00:14:47.759 --> 00:14:51.320 if Sir James is at home? Sir James, Sir James 325 00:14:51.360 --> 00:14:55.919 is dead, good, heavens dead. He died this morning. It's terrible, 326 00:14:56.399 --> 00:15:00.039 terrible How did he die? It's this horrible scandal. My 327 00:15:00.080 --> 00:15:02.200 brother so I was very sensitive of his honor. He 328 00:15:02.240 --> 00:15:05.720 couldn't survive the disgrace to his department. It broke his heart. 329 00:15:06.639 --> 00:15:09.639 Pardon me, jefuarf I must go. It broke his heart, 330 00:15:11.159 --> 00:15:15.440 pauling development he Holmes. I wondered if his death was 331 00:15:15.559 --> 00:15:32.720 natural or if the poor fellow killed himself. Yes, will 332 00:15:32.759 --> 00:15:34.759 you tell miss Westbreath, Mister Shehrlock Holmes would like to 333 00:15:34.799 --> 00:15:35.120 see her. 334 00:15:35.200 --> 00:15:38.720 Oh, please come in, gentlemen.

He couldn't have done it. 341 00:15:52.840 --> 00:15:54.879 He would have cut his right hand off rather than celestate. 342 00:15:54.919 --> 00:15:57.679 Secrets of the fact, my Dearess Westbury. 343 00:15:57.600 --> 00:16:00.519 I admit I can't explain them.

He'd saved several hundred pounds. 346 00:16:07.240 --> 00:16:09.320 We were to be married at the New Year, I see. 347 00:16:09.759 --> 00:16:14.159 Had you noticed any signs of mental excitement?

It was 353 00:16:26.320 --> 00:16:30.080 a foggy night, you remember, we were walking slowly. Our 354 00:16:30.080 --> 00:16:33.600 way took us close to his office. Cadogan seems footful 355 00:16:33.639 --> 00:16:45.759 and worried, no wits to Mary. Haven't sat a word 356 00:16:45.759 --> 00:16:47.120 for the last five minutes.
