Anyway, I burst in upon 7 00:00:15.599 --> 00:00:18.679 my old friend to find him deep in conversation with 8 00:00:18.800 --> 00:00:21.079 a stout, florid faced gentleman with the. 9 00:00:21.160 --> 00:00:22.480 Fiercest red hair. 10 00:00:22.879 --> 00:00:24.960 It has ever been my privilege to observe. 11 00:00:25.879 --> 00:00:28.440 I was a butt withdrawal when Holmes pulled me abruptly 12 00:00:28.480 --> 00:00:29.079 into the room. 13 00:00:29.800 --> 00:00:31.000 Close the door behind me. 14 00:00:32.280 --> 00:00:34.799 Come in, my dear Watson, Come in. You couldn't possibly 15 00:00:34.799 --> 00:00:35.920 have come at a better time. 16 00:00:35.759 --> 00:00:37.520 But Holmes, I was afraid you might be busy. 17 00:00:37.640 --> 00:00:40.399 So I am, my dear fellow. Alarm me. Mister Wilson. 18 00:00:40.719 --> 00:00:42.359 This is my friend and colleague, doctor Watts. 19 00:00:42.399 --> 00:00:42.920 How you do so? 20 00:00:43.039 --> 00:00:45.320 And how do you do? Sit down? Watson? Sit down. 21 00:00:45.119 --> 00:00:48.079 I know that you share my love of the bazaar, 22 00:00:48.479 --> 00:00:51.039 although you've never agreed that for the strangest effects and 23 00:00:51.119 --> 00:00:54.200 most extraordinary combinations, we must go to life itself. Well, 24 00:00:54.240 --> 00:00:57.039 you know, mister Japis Wilson here has just started a 25 00:00:57.119 --> 00:00:59.280 narrative which promises to be one of the most singular, 26 00:00:59.359 --> 00:01:02.119 which I've listened for some time. And now, my dar 27 00:01:02.159 --> 00:01:04.359 mister Wilson, perhaps you would have the great kindness to 28 00:01:04.599 --> 00:01:05.640 recommence your story. 29 00:01:06.120 --> 00:01:08.879 Certainly, mister Olmes, as soon as I can find that 30 00:01:09.000 --> 00:01:13.280 newspaper clipping where did I put it? And a swan 31 00:01:13.359 --> 00:01:14.959 that was here in the westcoat. 32 00:01:14.599 --> 00:01:17.680 Pocket and Watson. While we're waiting for mister Wilson to 33 00:01:17.680 --> 00:01:20.760 find his missing newspaper advertisement, I suppose you will tell 34 00:01:20.799 --> 00:01:23.760 me what you deduced from his apparero Athough here? 35 00:01:24.519 --> 00:01:24.680 Well? 36 00:01:24.719 --> 00:01:27.640 I would say that he was middle aged. 37 00:01:28.040 --> 00:01:30.200 You don't mind my saying, so, will call Colnor Wilson 38 00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:32.560 and and he has red hair? 39 00:01:32.840 --> 00:01:36.280 Obvious? Watson too obvious. I'll come to your assistance. 40 00:01:36.920 --> 00:01:37.319 Colonel. 41 00:01:37.760 --> 00:01:41.439 He has at some time done manual labor. He's a freemason, 42 00:01:41.680 --> 00:01:43.959 has been in China, and has done a considerable amount 43 00:01:44.000 --> 00:01:48.159 of writing lately. Mister Holmes, you fair give me the creeps. 44 00:01:48.760 --> 00:01:50.519 Are you one of these mind readers? 45 00:01:50.719 --> 00:01:53.400 No? Indeed, no, in the name of good fortune, did 46 00:01:53.480 --> 00:01:54.599 you know all this about me? 47 00:01:55.400 --> 00:01:59.000 About the manual labor? For example, it's just true as gospel. 48 00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:01.599 A beginner, the ship's carpenter. 49 00:02:01.480 --> 00:02:04.359 Your hands my dear sir, your right hand is quite 50 00:02:04.359 --> 00:02:07.359 a size larger than your left. The muscles are more developed. 51 00:02:07.840 --> 00:02:10.840 As for the freemasonry, you use an arc and compass 52 00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:15.199 breastpin rather against the strict rules of your order. See that, 53 00:02:16.280 --> 00:02:19.159 but the writing? How about that? What else can be 54 00:02:19.199 --> 00:02:22.560 indicated by that right cuff so very shiny, and the 55 00:02:22.639 --> 00:02:24.919 left sleeve with a smooth patch near the elbow where 56 00:02:24.919 --> 00:02:29.080 you rest it on the desk. Well about China. The 57 00:02:29.120 --> 00:02:31.199 fish that you have to plud immediately above your right 58 00:02:31.240 --> 00:02:34.039 wrist could only have been done in China. That trick 59 00:02:34.039 --> 00:02:36.479 of staining the fish's scales of delicate pink is quite 60 00:02:36.520 --> 00:02:39.360 peculiar to China. And when, in addition I see a 61 00:02:39.479 --> 00:02:42.199 Chinese coin hanging from your watch chain, the matter becomes 62 00:02:42.240 --> 00:02:45.879 even more somp a line. 63 00:02:46.159 --> 00:02:50.360 Never at first I thought you'd done something clever, But 64 00:02:50.439 --> 00:02:52.280 now I see it was nothing doing. 65 00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:55.840 After all, I begin to think, Watson, that I make 66 00:02:55.919 --> 00:02:59.560 a mistake in explaining omni Ignote and pro Magnifico. You 67 00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:03.800 know Ye're just low thinking, Yes, I'm afraid what reputation 68 00:03:03.879 --> 00:03:06.199 I may have will suffer shipwreck if I'm so candid. 69 00:03:07.199 --> 00:03:09.039 Have you found the advertisement? Mister Wilson. 70 00:03:09.120 --> 00:03:13.120 Oh, yes, I got it. Now it's in the watch pocket. 71 00:03:13.639 --> 00:03:16.879 This is what beginning, all, shir just read it for yourself. 72 00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:19.639 I want them. I suppose you will do that for us. Third, 73 00:03:20.159 --> 00:03:22.800 as first, make a note of the paper and the date. 74 00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:26.879 It's the Morning Chronicle of July the twenty seventh, eighteen ninety, 75 00:03:26.919 --> 00:03:27.719 just two months ago. 76 00:03:28.039 --> 00:03:30.039 Very well, proceed with the advertisement. 77 00:03:30.080 --> 00:03:34.439 It begins to the Red Headed League.
