WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:13.080 Over here I've found him. 2 00:00:13.279 --> 00:00:20.039 Oh, well done, Bason. This has been an accident. Huh 3 00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:27.079 here he is. Look, this is no accident. One could 4 00:00:27.079 --> 00:00:29.879 take a terrible blow to crush a man's skull. Exist, 5 00:00:30.719 --> 00:00:32.520 the poor fellow's been brutally mane. 6 00:00:32.920 --> 00:00:36.640 My medical training had given me some preparation for the 7 00:00:36.679 --> 00:00:40.600 many faces of death, and on several investigations with. 8 00:00:40.560 --> 00:00:43.880 My friend Sharlock Holmes, I had reason to be grateful. 9 00:00:44.759 --> 00:00:48.520 My name is Watson, doctor Watson, so often privileged to 10 00:00:48.560 --> 00:00:52.399 show the adventures of Shellock Holmes. I will tell you 11 00:00:52.439 --> 00:00:55.000 what happened in the case of the Priory School. 12 00:01:00.200 --> 00:01:03.159 We had some dramatic inferences and exits. Upon our small 13 00:01:03.240 --> 00:01:06.359 stage at two to one b Baker Street, Feller comes hyme, 14 00:01:06.959 --> 00:01:10.799 But I can't recollect any sudden and stocking as the 15 00:01:10.840 --> 00:01:15.040 first appearance of doctor Thornicroft Huxtable M A PhD, et cetera, 16 00:01:15.079 --> 00:01:18.359 et cetera. His card seemed too small to gather the 17 00:01:18.359 --> 00:01:22.480 weight with his academic distinctions, but he himself was large 18 00:01:22.519 --> 00:01:26.519 and pompous. The embodiment I possession and solidity. But this 19 00:01:26.599 --> 00:01:32.599 impression lasted a little longer than his greetings, how do 20 00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:38.000 you do getlemen, I am very long. We are great 21 00:01:38.159 --> 00:01:45.120 heavens home. Let's see, well the old revenues thing brandy 22 00:01:45.159 --> 00:01:47.719 and water against great believe in it? He doesn't, Tricky 23 00:01:47.799 --> 00:01:51.599 must admit, Oh I do. Ah. He's beginning to stir 24 00:01:52.439 --> 00:01:56.040 the return ticket from Mackleton in his watch pockets steps 25 00:01:56.079 --> 00:01:58.799 him the north. He must have started out early, the 26 00:01:59.200 --> 00:02:06.599 hopes coming round. Only curiosity, wasn't no Ah, mister Holmes, 27 00:02:06.959 --> 00:02:10.639 do forgive this weakness? So it's nothing. Doctor here, let 28 00:02:10.680 --> 00:02:15.800 me help you into this chair. Hugh Sick, you are 29 00:02:15.919 --> 00:02:16.439 very kind. 30 00:02:18.120 --> 00:02:20.000 Was a. 31 00:02:21.639 --> 00:02:26.280 Oh, mister Holmes, he's absolutely competitive that you come back 32 00:02:26.319 --> 00:02:29.560 to Mackleton with me by the next tree. I'm afraid 33 00:02:29.560 --> 00:02:32.599 that's quite out of the question, mister Holmes. Have you 34 00:02:32.680 --> 00:02:36.840 heard nothing of the abduction of the Duke of Holderness's son, Holderness, 35 00:02:37.080 --> 00:02:41.039 the former cabinet minister. Exactly so? The Duke of Holderness 36 00:02:41.080 --> 00:02:44.840 committed his oldest son, young Lord Sulfad, to my chart 37 00:02:45.479 --> 00:02:47.639 for it. Did I know it was the prelude of 38 00:02:47.639 --> 00:02:50.159 the most crushing s fortune of my life. Pray go 39 00:02:50.319 --> 00:02:55.000 on with your account, doctor Hastable. Of course, Well, the 40 00:02:55.039 --> 00:02:58.800 boy arrived on me the first a charming youth. But 41 00:02:58.960 --> 00:03:01.919 I've venture to say, far from happy at home. He 42 00:03:02.159 --> 00:03:04.479 curd of separation, you know, not long before the boy 43 00:03:04.560 --> 00:03:06.759 came for me. Yes, I remember that the Duchy is 44 00:03:06.800 --> 00:03:08.800 wing to live in the south of Franctanton. In every 45 00:03:08.879 --> 00:03:12.039 soul the boy's sympathies were very much beheard, I gather, 46 00:03:12.360 --> 00:03:15.240 but he had to remain with his father anyway. He 47 00:03:15.400 --> 00:03:19.240 circled down at the private at once. That's good, Yes, 48 00:03:20.199 --> 00:03:23.080 well he was found to be missing. First thing last 49 00:03:23.120 --> 00:03:25.599 to choose day morning. His bed had been stepped in, 50 00:03:25.800 --> 00:03:28.639 and he obviously got dressed in his usual school suit. 51 00:03:29.159 --> 00:03:31.680 When the alarm was raised, I had once called the 52 00:03:31.800 --> 00:03:35.439 role of the whole establishment, boys, masters and servants. It 53 00:03:35.639 --> 00:03:40.400 revealed that Lord Sottire hadn't disappeared at all. Now no Hidiger, 54 00:03:40.599 --> 00:03:44.319 the German arts master was missing also, Ah, his bed 55 00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:46.479 had also been slept in, but he seemed to have 56 00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:50.879 gone away puckly dressed. His shirt and socks were lying 57 00:03:50.960 --> 00:03:53.680 on the floor. His bicycle was missing from the head. 58 00:03:54.199 --> 00:03:57.879 Surely there's an official investigation of food. Yes, no, only 59 00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:01.240 lookally it has proved completely disappointing. So far the whole 60 00:04:01.280 --> 00:04:04.680 affair has been handled applaudibly. I quite agree, sir, but 61 00:04:04.800 --> 00:04:07.240 I am not to blame. I knew of your reputation 62 00:04:07.319 --> 00:04:09.719 of wanting to come here at once, but his Grace 63 00:04:09.879 --> 00:04:13.919 would not continuance it. Actually, Holderness Hall is quite close 64 00:04:13.960 --> 00:04:16.000 to the prior to school, and at first we all 65 00:04:16.040 --> 00:04:19.120 thought that the boy must have gone there some sudden 66 00:04:19.160 --> 00:04:22.319 bust of homesickness. You know, it does happen. But the 67 00:04:22.399 --> 00:04:25.040 Duke was as surprised as we were when he heard 68 00:04:25.040 --> 00:04:26.800 the Nukes. Had the boy a bicycle? 69 00:04:27.319 --> 00:04:27.399 No? 70 00:04:27.800 --> 00:04:30.959 Was any bicycle missing other than the Germans? I knew none. 71 00:04:31.199 --> 00:04:34.120 I see. Did anyone call to see the boy on 72 00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:38.040 the day before he disappear? No? Did he get any letter? Yes, 73 00:04:38.399 --> 00:04:40.879 he did get one letter from his father? Had you 74 00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:43.279 know it's from his father? The coat of arms on 75 00:04:43.319 --> 00:04:47.040 the inwove and his Grace's handwriting it is easily recognizable. 76 00:04:47.480 --> 00:04:50.800 Had the boy ever had a letter from France? From France, 77 00:04:51.639 --> 00:04:55.040 why no? I should have remembered that he said that 78 00:04:55.160 --> 00:04:58.160 the boy's sympathies were with his mother, who told you 79 00:04:58.240 --> 00:05:01.639 that I had a confidential walk with his Grace's secretary, 80 00:05:01.879 --> 00:05:05.360 mister James Wilder. I see, mister Holmes, I shall have 81 00:05:05.399 --> 00:05:07.720 to be leaving for Houston. I must get back to 82 00:05:07.759 --> 00:05:10.519 the school at a time. I just understand we shall 83 00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:13.920 be leaving for Houston, Doctor Huxtable, A capping you, I 84 00:05:14.199 --> 00:05:16.680 and my friend Watson. Here this case of the Priory 85 00:05:16.680 --> 00:05:20.079 School has some singular teachers, yet it should be capable 86 00:05:20.079 --> 00:05:23.759 of solution. If the cent isn't too cold around your door, 87 00:05:23.879 --> 00:05:27.560 Dr Huxtable, perhaps two old hounds like Watson and myself 88 00:05:27.959 --> 00:05:36.759 may in a slipper, gentlemen, this is the Prity School, Roberts. 89 00:05:36.759 --> 00:05:41.680 These gentlemen cooks pee Well dot Stes. 90 00:05:42.160 --> 00:05:44.800 The Duke is yes, sir, His Grace is in the study, 91 00:05:44.800 --> 00:05:47.319 and mister Wilder is with him, Sir. He seems rather 92 00:05:47.839 --> 00:05:52.680 upset me. I see them without today, Come, gentlemen, and 93 00:05:52.759 --> 00:06:01.560 I will introduce you with one good evening, U grace 94 00:06:01.720 --> 00:06:08.120 straining hospital. May I introduce mister Sherlock Holmes, and doctor 95 00:06:08.120 --> 00:06:15.319 Watson and mister Wilder, his gracious secretary, Doctor Hustable, I 96 00:06:15.399 --> 00:06:17.279 called on you this morning, too late to prevent you 97 00:06:17.319 --> 00:06:20.279 from starting for London. His Grace was very surprised to 98 00:06:20.360 --> 00:06:22.279 learn that your object was to invite mister Holmes to 99 00:06:22.360 --> 00:06:26.160 undertake this case. Surely you are well aware, Dr Hustable, 100 00:06:26.439 --> 00:06:29.639 but his Grace is particularly anxious to avoid all public scandal. 101 00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:32.199 He prefers to take as few people as possible into 102 00:06:32.199 --> 00:06:37.399 his confidence. You're, Grace, Young Wris did to consult may 103 00:06:37.480 --> 00:06:39.959 Doctor Huxtable, But since mister Holmes has already been taken 104 00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:42.480 into your confidence, it would be absurd for us not 105 00:06:42.639 --> 00:06:45.199 to avail ourselves of his services. I thank your Grace. 106 00:06:45.800 --> 00:06:48.360 May I ask whether you have formed any explanation as 107 00:06:48.439 --> 00:06:50.199 to your son discipline and knows how I have not 108 00:06:51.079 --> 00:06:53.480 forgive me for asking this, But do you think her 109 00:06:53.519 --> 00:06:57.000 Grace had anything to do with it? I do not 110 00:06:57.079 --> 00:07:00.240 think so. The other most obvious explanation is that he's 111 00:07:00.279 --> 00:07:04.120 been kidnapped. Have you received any demand for ransom? Knows her, 112 00:07:04.680 --> 00:07:07.120 Your Grace, Your son received a letter from you on 113 00:07:07.160 --> 00:07:10.079 the day this incident occurred. Was there anything in it 114 00:07:10.120 --> 00:07:12.000 which might have induced him to run away from him? 115 00:07:12.079 --> 00:07:14.879 Knows her? That certainly was not. Did you first that 116 00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:18.199 letsie yourself? I beg your pardon. Mister Holmes says, Grace 117 00:07:18.319 --> 00:07:20.639 is not in the habit of posting letters himself. This 118 00:07:20.720 --> 00:07:22.480 one was laid with others on the study table for 119 00:07:22.600 --> 00:07:25.839 me to put into the postbag. I see you remember 120 00:07:25.959 --> 00:07:29.639 seeing this particular letter, mister Wander. I do how many 121 00:07:29.720 --> 00:07:32.720 letters did your grace write that day Mays or twenty 122 00:07:32.759 --> 00:07:35.120 or thirty? I suppose I have a large correspondence. But 123 00:07:35.360 --> 00:07:39.639 surely all this is rather irrellum. Not entirely for my part, 124 00:07:39.720 --> 00:07:42.160 mister Holmes, I have advised the police to turn their 125 00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:44.639 attention to the size of France. The lad had the 126 00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:47.519 most wrong, haided opinions about some things, and it is 127 00:07:47.639 --> 00:07:49.839 possible he might have led to my wife, and that 128 00:07:49.920 --> 00:07:53.240 this German has helped him. And now, gentlemen, good day 129 00:07:53.319 --> 00:07:58.680 to you. All. This case grows upon me. Watson, certainly mysterious, 130 00:07:58.680 --> 00:08:01.360 all right, but I wanted two geographical features. I'd like 131 00:08:01.399 --> 00:08:04.399 to acquaint you with. Bowmen, I got hold of this 132 00:08:04.560 --> 00:08:12.399 large scale ordnance man. Look here this dark square. He 133 00:08:12.480 --> 00:08:14.759 is the priory school as you is. Here's the main 134 00:08:14.839 --> 00:08:18.439 road running east and west past it. Now, by a 135 00:08:18.480 --> 00:08:20.959 heavy chance were able to check what passed along this 136 00:08:21.079 --> 00:08:23.959 road during the night in question. At this point to 137 00:08:24.000 --> 00:08:27.519 the east where my pipes lie, a constable was on 138 00:08:27.519 --> 00:08:30.000 Beauty from twelve to six. He's positive the man and 139 00:08:30.040 --> 00:08:33.240 boy could not have passed without him seen good? Or 140 00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:35.919 what about the other direction down the road to the west. 141 00:08:36.279 --> 00:08:39.080 Here it's the red Bull. Now. On that night the 142 00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:42.000 landlady was ill. She said to Mackleton for a doctor, 143 00:08:42.000 --> 00:08:43.720 but he was out on another case, and he didn't 144 00:08:43.759 --> 00:08:46.120 get to her until morning. The people at the inn 145 00:08:46.159 --> 00:08:48.519 were worried, and they swear that one or another of 146 00:08:48.559 --> 00:08:51.000 them was on the alert all night, continually looking along 147 00:08:51.000 --> 00:08:53.840 the road waiting to see the doctor coming. They saw 148 00:08:54.000 --> 00:08:58.279 no man or boy, but they went across country. Oh 149 00:08:58.399 --> 00:09:01.399 but what about the vestble. A good cyclist doesn't need 150 00:09:01.399 --> 00:09:04.840 a road, does he? Moor road doesn't very well? Then, 151 00:09:04.879 --> 00:09:07.759 assuming that the cycle was used there, not along the road. 152 00:09:08.480 --> 00:09:12.240 This is the only possible direction to the north. Yeah, 153 00:09:12.480 --> 00:09:16.639 across this moorland its intersected with paths and sparsely populated. 154 00:09:17.320 --> 00:09:20.360 To the south here towards me there are obstacles, stone 155 00:09:20.399 --> 00:09:23.159 walls and so on. No, they would take to the moor, 156 00:09:23.799 --> 00:09:26.840 seemed like at home. So it's the more we must 157 00:09:26.879 --> 00:09:31.080 search tomorrowland. Yes, i'll wake you early, which we have 158 00:09:31.120 --> 00:09:41.039 a long day ahead of it. Hello, hello, hello, what 159 00:09:41.240 --> 00:09:45.799 have we here? Have you found something? Homes? Oh, my 160 00:09:47.000 --> 00:09:50.559 perfect bicycle time mark? Oh, but we don't know whether 161 00:09:50.600 --> 00:09:53.639 it's the bicycle the way I am familiar with forty 162 00:09:53.799 --> 00:09:57.480 two different impressions left by tires. From what the other 163 00:09:57.559 --> 00:09:59.399 masters could tell me, this was the make of tire. 164 00:09:59.480 --> 00:10:03.159 Heidegger head on his machine, standing, and the rider was 165 00:10:03.200 --> 00:10:07.679 traveling away from the privy spot until there. Simple Just 166 00:10:07.720 --> 00:10:10.279 look at these impressions. Some are deeper than others in 167 00:10:10.399 --> 00:10:13.440 this subt ground. Obviously, the deeper are those of the 168 00:10:13.480 --> 00:10:15.960 rear wheel. With all the rider's wait on it. You 169 00:10:15.960 --> 00:10:18.559 can see several places where they pass over the shallower one. 170 00:10:19.320 --> 00:10:21.480 So then let us follow and see what else we 171 00:10:21.600 --> 00:10:22.240 may find. 172 00:10:25.279 --> 00:10:27.399 Over here. 173 00:10:28.600 --> 00:10:34.320 I've found him hiding. Oh, well done, Watson, this has 174 00:10:34.360 --> 00:10:38.039 been an accident. Huh, just ham to sport the bicycle 175 00:10:38.039 --> 00:10:45.200 wheel glinting through these bushes here he is, Look good. 176 00:10:46.799 --> 00:10:51.480 This is no accident, Watson. The poor fellow's been brutally murdered. 177 00:10:52.000 --> 00:10:55.000 The body of the bicycle concealed here. No doubt that 178 00:10:55.039 --> 00:10:58.080 this is who else he sits. All the descriptions out 179 00:10:58.159 --> 00:11:00.879 hands would take a terrible blow to crush a man's skull, 180 00:11:01.000 --> 00:11:03.879 it was. And he threw a coat on over his 181 00:11:04.000 --> 00:11:06.480 night things and put on his shoes, but not his socks. 182 00:11:07.039 --> 00:11:09.639 But the boy, I told, was fully dressed when he disappeared, 183 00:11:10.039 --> 00:11:12.440 as though the German had to act quicker exactly? And 184 00:11:12.519 --> 00:11:14.799 why because he looked out of his bedroom window and 185 00:11:14.799 --> 00:11:17.440 saw the boy leading, he threw on his things and 186 00:11:17.519 --> 00:11:21.639 set off after him. Why on a bicycle. Surely he 187 00:11:21.679 --> 00:11:25.480 could have caught him on foot. No, No, the boy 188 00:11:25.639 --> 00:11:29.279 was moving too quickly for him. Well, let us continue 189 00:11:29.279 --> 00:11:33.720 our reconstruction. Where we are now is from five miles 190 00:11:33.759 --> 00:11:36.279 from the school. At this point the pursuer met his 191 00:11:36.440 --> 00:11:40.039 dead And how by a great blow, hard enough and 192 00:11:40.120 --> 00:11:43.240 vicious enough to crush his skull. A ten year old 193 00:11:43.279 --> 00:11:45.320 boy couldn't have done that. Then the boy did have 194 00:11:45.360 --> 00:11:48.840 someone with him, almost certainly. But we're forgetting one thing, 195 00:11:48.879 --> 00:11:51.879 once said. We've searched my nut around the body, and 196 00:11:51.879 --> 00:11:54.200 have we found the track of any other bicycle than this? Well, 197 00:11:54.279 --> 00:11:56.559 I was going to mention it. We haven't any footprints, No, 198 00:11:56.679 --> 00:11:59.039 not at all, just Kow's hoof marks all over the place. 199 00:12:00.159 --> 00:12:02.960 Getting onto will I say, Look, there's a ton of 200 00:12:02.960 --> 00:12:05.519 cutting pete about half a mile back. We must send 201 00:12:05.559 --> 00:12:07.279 him off with a message to the police about this 202 00:12:07.360 --> 00:12:10.960 unfortunate German. Then there's nothing for us. I'm afraid, but 203 00:12:11.000 --> 00:12:13.519 to go on in the direction these cycle tracks were 204 00:12:13.519 --> 00:12:18.240 heading and see where it leads to, if anywhere. 205 00:12:24.240 --> 00:12:31.440 Oh, I was never so glad. 206 00:12:31.559 --> 00:12:33.480 Steer me in my ad bit.

That's right. 248 00:14:54.039 --> 00:14:56.600 I thought of the time when its have cows milling around, 249 00:14:56.600 --> 00:14:59.639 which you never know there were cow hoof masks. Men. Oh, yes, 250 00:15:00.200 --> 00:15:02.600 quickly Watson, before he comes back, we must nip round 251 00:15:02.600 --> 00:15:04.799 to his tables and see what we can see the stable. 252 00:15:05.679 --> 00:15:12.799 Why I don't forget about the limp though homes you 253 00:15:13.440 --> 00:15:18.720 noble steeds.

Now 261 00:15:45.360 --> 00:15:47.720 look here, mister, I don't care if I'm talking about 262 00:15:47.759 --> 00:15:50.200 my face.

Then they've 265 00:15:55.480 --> 00:15:57.279 been having a look at your horses. But I think 266 00:15:57.320 --> 00:16:00.159 I'll try to walk after all, it's not far. I 267 00:16:00.159 --> 00:16:05.759 believe what we were getting warm at that end. As 268 00:16:05.759 --> 00:16:08.919 the children say, we get colder every step we take 269 00:16:08.960 --> 00:16:12.399 away from it. No, no, I can't possibly leave it. 270 00:16:12.639 --> 00:16:14.240 I must take another look at the place in a 271 00:16:14.320 --> 00:16:19.639 less obtrusive way up on the spence. Do I think 272 00:16:20.759 --> 00:16:24.919 that's better? Hello? What you seen? There's a fellow on 273 00:16:24.960 --> 00:16:27.720 a bicycle coming from the direction of the hall. If 274 00:16:27.759 --> 00:16:32.919 he's moving through, get down behind this brand, Let's see 275 00:16:33.000 --> 00:16:43.840 what it is. Where's the Duke's secretary wander? So it is? 276 00:16:44.960 --> 00:16:47.159 Come on, let's see what he's up to. 277 00:16:47.480 --> 00:16:49.159 By thinking about the countryside, we. 278 00:16:49.159 --> 00:16:56.440 Shall yelling at all. Soon getting dark, I hadn't noticed. Ah, 279 00:16:56.600 --> 00:16:59.080 they've just lit the lamp in that first floor room. 280 00:17:00.200 --> 00:17:02.440 I think we'll hold on here until it's dark enough 281 00:17:02.480 --> 00:17:03.960 to go down and take a really. 282 00:17:03.799 --> 00:17:12.759 Close I can't understand all these rifles and departures. 283 00:17:13.559 --> 00:17:16.880 First Wilder on his bicycle, and then. 284 00:17:16.759 --> 00:17:21.400 A pony trap rushes off towards Chesterfield, and another gathers 285 00:17:21.440 --> 00:17:22.279 of years of evil. 286 00:17:24.240 --> 00:17:26.839 What's then? I want to take a peek through the 287 00:17:26.960 --> 00:17:28.680 first floor window. Do you think you could make a 288 00:17:28.799 --> 00:17:42.839 bag for me? Widow up can go rank just as well.

Dr Watson and I had come 293 00:17:57.920 --> 00:18:00.599 to see his grace. I'm sorry, mister Herman. His grace 294 00:18:00.720 --> 00:18:03.240 is far from well. He has been very much upset 295 00:18:03.279 --> 00:18:06.599 by the tragic news yesterday about Heidegger. The doctor Huxtable 296 00:18:06.640 --> 00:18:09.599 telegraphed at once. I understand that I must see the Duke, 297 00:18:09.680 --> 00:18:12.720 mister Wilder. Well, mister Holmes, what can I do with you, 298 00:18:12.720 --> 00:18:15.119 your grace? I think I could speak more freely in 299 00:18:15.200 --> 00:18:19.359 mister Wilder's absence, Sir, there were then he had better 300 00:18:19.400 --> 00:18:29.240 go as your grace wishes. Now, mister Holmes, your grace. 301 00:18:29.839 --> 00:18:32.400 Your son is at the Fighting Cock Inn, about two 302 00:18:32.440 --> 00:18:37.599 miles from your park gates. The Fighting Cock, Yes, and 303 00:18:38.640 --> 00:18:44.240 whom you accused. I accuse you, your grason. I looked 304 00:18:44.240 --> 00:18:46.200 through a window there last night and saw you and 305 00:18:46.240 --> 00:18:51.960 your son together. Yes, mister Holmes, I offered a substantial 306 00:18:52.000 --> 00:18:54.960 reward to the person's information. Should restore my son to me. 307 00:18:55.519 --> 00:18:58.319 If this need go no further than your friends here 308 00:18:58.359 --> 00:19:00.799 and yourself. I am. I did to write a check 309 00:19:00.839 --> 00:19:03.079 for double the sun. There is a man's death to 310 00:19:03.160 --> 00:19:05.839 the accountry. Surely a man cannot be condemned from murdered. 311 00:19:05.839 --> 00:19:08.440 But she was not present. It's spotified to hear of it. 312 00:19:08.519 --> 00:19:11.119 I take it your words applied to mister James Wilder. Yes, yes, 313 00:19:11.160 --> 00:19:14.119 and that he is not the murderer. No, the murderer 314 00:19:14.160 --> 00:19:17.039 has got creed by now. Mister Rubin Hayes, landlord of 315 00:19:17.039 --> 00:19:19.400 the Fighting Cock, was arrested a chest field on my 316 00:19:19.480 --> 00:19:23.079 information at eleven o'clock last night. Hey is caught, and 317 00:19:23.160 --> 00:19:25.200 I'm very glad to know it, sir. And now we 318 00:19:25.279 --> 00:19:26.920 must give out attention to what can be done to 319 00:19:27.039 --> 00:19:30.079 extricate my son from this situation. Oh, Lord's so tired, 320 00:19:30.119 --> 00:19:35.240 perfectly safe now I mean my son, James, James, James Wilder, 321 00:19:35.400 --> 00:19:39.480 your secretary knows my son. Oh your face. I must 322 00:19:39.480 --> 00:19:41.640 ask you to be moist plicit miss to herms. I 323 00:19:41.680 --> 00:19:45.920 will conceal nothing from you. When I was young, I 324 00:19:45.960 --> 00:19:48.000 loved that such a love that comes only once in 325 00:19:48.000 --> 00:19:50.799 a lifetime. I offered the lady marriage, but she refused 326 00:19:50.799 --> 00:19:54.720 it because such a match might ruin my career. She died, 327 00:19:55.160 --> 00:19:58.319 leaving me with this child. James. I see, I couldn't 328 00:19:58.359 --> 00:20:01.079 openly acknowledge his relationship to me, so I tried to 329 00:20:01.119 --> 00:20:02.599 make it up him by giving him the best of 330 00:20:02.720 --> 00:20:07.279 educations and keeping him as close to me as I could. Yes, 331 00:20:07.960 --> 00:20:11.799 but he found out my secret. Ever since, he's held 332 00:20:11.839 --> 00:20:14.400 over me his power to provoke a scandal at any time. 333 00:20:15.279 --> 00:20:17.680 He was also in order to generous my legitimate son 334 00:20:17.720 --> 00:20:21.319 and heir. Indeed, he hates him. That is why I said, Arthur, 335 00:20:22.000 --> 00:20:24.480 Lord Salta, to what I thought was the safety of 336 00:20:24.519 --> 00:20:27.480 Doctor Huxtable's prior to school, your grace, I think I 337 00:20:27.599 --> 00:20:30.240 can continue the story now, will you commit ba Of 338 00:20:30.279 --> 00:20:33.000 course if you can. You wrote to Lord Salta the 339 00:20:33.079 --> 00:20:36.480 day before he was kidnapped. But James Wilder inserted into 340 00:20:36.559 --> 00:20:38.759 your letter a note asking the boy to meet him 341 00:20:38.759 --> 00:20:41.519 behind the school late that night. He probably said he 342 00:20:41.559 --> 00:20:43.400 had a message from the Duchess for him. How could 343 00:20:43.440 --> 00:20:46.319 you know this? I assume it in detail, it may 344 00:20:46.359 --> 00:20:49.000 not be quite precise. In general, I'm thirty. Pray go 345 00:20:49.119 --> 00:20:53.480 on them his terms. Lord Saltaire came to the appointment 346 00:20:53.839 --> 00:20:57.440 and found the accomplice Rubin Hayes there with a plony. 347 00:20:57.880 --> 00:21:00.000 He was fast to mount, and they went off across 348 00:21:00.119 --> 00:21:03.160 the more. It's pierres. However, that the German master hiding. 349 00:21:03.279 --> 00:21:05.920 I saw the boy leave and followed him on his bicycle. 350 00:21:06.599 --> 00:21:08.960 When he caught up with them, Jays killed him brutally. 351 00:21:09.519 --> 00:21:11.880 Jays then took your son on to his inn, where 352 00:21:11.880 --> 00:21:13.920 the boy has been a prisoner ever since. Well, I 353 00:21:13.960 --> 00:21:15.960 don't know how you arrive at all that about the 354 00:21:16.200 --> 00:21:18.720 pony and the by students on. Oh, the whole story 355 00:21:18.839 --> 00:21:20.920 was written plainly on the surface of the moor for 356 00:21:21.039 --> 00:21:23.240 us to read, wasn't it was? Well, there were marks 357 00:21:23.240 --> 00:21:25.400 and tracks, one kind of anode. I'm hanging you. I 358 00:21:25.400 --> 00:21:27.559 can see how they all come into it. Those cows 359 00:21:27.559 --> 00:21:31.680 for his cows, cows, what will he whose? You remember? 360 00:21:31.759 --> 00:21:34.079 The mocks, their hoofs all around where we found the 361 00:21:34.119 --> 00:21:36.599 bucket cows on the moor. But if we take it 362 00:21:36.599 --> 00:21:38.559 from names to homes, no cows are on that mare, 363 00:21:38.920 --> 00:21:41.279 nor ever have been to my knowledge. I quite agree 364 00:21:41.559 --> 00:21:44.319 what you have. Basically, I asked you to finish the 365 00:21:44.400 --> 00:21:48.640 narrative for us. Oh well, James was quite unnerved by 366 00:21:48.640 --> 00:21:50.720 the death of the German master. He told me that 367 00:21:50.839 --> 00:21:53.200 Arthur was held, but begged me to keep his secret 368 00:21:53.279 --> 00:21:56.160 until he could find a way of well clearing everything up. 369 00:21:56.359 --> 00:21:58.680 You agree on condition that I should be able to 370 00:21:58.720 --> 00:22:01.480 go and see Arthur for myself after nightfall. James at 371 00:22:01.480 --> 00:22:03.920 once rode off on his bicycle to tell hey ies 372 00:22:04.160 --> 00:22:06.680 Dotor Watson, and I saw him at the inn. Hayes 373 00:22:06.720 --> 00:22:08.839 lost no time in making off in his track. I 374 00:22:09.000 --> 00:22:12.440 went there sometime afterwards, and I gather you saw me 375 00:22:12.640 --> 00:22:16.440 with my son just arms Hermes. I've told you all 376 00:22:16.480 --> 00:22:19.240 I can. I been frank with you. Please be as 377 00:22:19.279 --> 00:22:23.279 frank with me. I will in the first place, your Grace, 378 00:22:23.359 --> 00:22:25.799 I'm abound to tell you that you've condoned a felony 379 00:22:25.880 --> 00:22:28.599 and aided the escapable murderer. I am ready to take 380 00:22:28.640 --> 00:22:31.319 all the consequence. Oh I'm not here in a nutricial position, 381 00:22:31.559 --> 00:22:33.640 and there's no reason so long as the ends of justice, 382 00:22:33.640 --> 00:22:37.200 I said, why I should dispose all I know Hayes 383 00:22:37.279 --> 00:22:41.039 well be hanged. Never doubt that s your son, James. 384 00:22:41.200 --> 00:22:43.640 I would warn your Grace that his continued presence in 385 00:22:43.680 --> 00:22:47.640 your households can only lead to misfortune. I understand letters 386 00:22:47.680 --> 00:22:50.480 to Holmes, and she's already settled as he should seek 387 00:22:50.480 --> 00:22:54.480 his fortune in Australia. Then my friend Watson and I 388 00:22:54.519 --> 00:22:58.200 can congratulate ourselves upon several happy results from our little 389 00:22:58.240 --> 00:23:04.079 visit to the north. Yes, mister Holmes, here is your check, 390 00:23:04.799 --> 00:23:07.839 Thank you, grace, before you go. What was all read 391 00:23:07.880 --> 00:23:10.400 about cows on the moor? Yes, terms, I want to 392 00:23:10.400 --> 00:23:14.839 know that too. The answer is behind yourself. I'm afraid 393 00:23:14.839 --> 00:23:18.079 I don't quite follow this last case and the most 394 00:23:18.160 --> 00:23:23.240 interesting of all the exhibits inside. Oh those, yes, of course, yes, 395 00:23:23.319 --> 00:23:24.920 they was dug up in the middle of the moat 396 00:23:25.000 --> 00:23:27.519 some years ago. What are they, you'm grace? Or they're 397 00:23:27.519 --> 00:23:29.200 supposed to have been used by some of them marouding 398 00:23:29.279 --> 00:23:31.960 barrens of holdiness in the Middle Ages. They attached them 399 00:23:31.960 --> 00:23:35.799 to the horses wolves. You see the shape below the 400 00:23:35.799 --> 00:23:38.960 clothing foot of irons, So the horses checks would look 401 00:23:39.039 --> 00:23:43.920
