Was only in June. 41 00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:11.599 I remember that. 42 00:02:11.560 --> 00:02:13.759 I received a telegram from the great Man asking me 43 00:02:13.759 --> 00:02:15.759 to come and spend a long weekend with him. 44 00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:18.319 And I'm sure you needed no urging to accept the invitation. 45 00:02:18.719 --> 00:02:20.319 None, mister Bardo, none at all. 46 00:02:20.759 --> 00:02:23.319 I hadn't seen Holmes for some time and this fact, 47 00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:27.240 combined with my rather indifferent health, found me on the 48 00:02:27.280 --> 00:02:29.479 Eastbourne train a few hours. 49 00:02:29.240 --> 00:02:31.199 After receiving the telegram. 50 00:02:31.400 --> 00:02:33.400 A dog cart was at the station to meet me, 51 00:02:33.919 --> 00:02:37.840 and after a brisk drive across the Downs, I found myself. 52 00:02:37.560 --> 00:02:41.199 Once more with my good friend. He looked somewhat older 53 00:02:41.199 --> 00:02:42.280 than when I had last seen. 54 00:02:42.120 --> 00:02:44.560 Him, but as he spoke to me, I realized, from 55 00:02:44.599 --> 00:02:47.000 the keenness of his voice and the sparkle in his 56 00:02:47.080 --> 00:02:48.919 eye that Sherlock Holmes. 57 00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:50.360 Would never really be old. 58 00:02:51.159 --> 00:02:54.919 After a while, our conversation lapsed into the comfortable silence that, 59 00:02:55.479 --> 00:02:59.039 because he could tap on me, exists only between friends. 60 00:02:59.560 --> 00:03:03.439 And there, as the sun was setting, Holmes picked up 61 00:03:03.479 --> 00:03:07.039 his beloved violin and began to play some haunting melody. 62 00:03:07.719 --> 00:03:11.759 As he lay back, eyes half closed, his long, thin 63 00:03:11.919 --> 00:03:16.120 fingers caressing the instrument, a wave of nostralia swept over there. 64 00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:19.800 I thought of the many years that we'd spent together, 65 00:03:20.439 --> 00:03:23.560 of the exciting adventures that we had shared during the 66 00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:24.400 old days. 67 00:03:24.159 --> 00:03:36.439 In Baker Street.
