And thus was solved the mystery of the sinister
house with thecopper beeches in front of the door.
And she would need to be, said Holmes gravely. I
remember nothinguntil I found myself lying on my bed trembling all
over.
Rucastle seemed to me to be colourless in mind as
well asin feature.
I should not ask it of you if I did notthink you a
quite exceptional woman. It would cease to be a danger ifwe could define it, said
he. Rucastle let me out when he came back before hewent up to you.
Holmes and I had listened spellbound to this
extraordinary story.
If I could only bring you down all would be
well.
It is to keep people out who have no business
there.
Oh, you may carry that feeling away with
you.
I got his leave to come intotown this morning,
though he little knew for what purpose.
A loud thudding noise came from somewhere
downstairs.
He spoke in a jesting tone, but there was no jestin
his eyes as he looked at me. I was foolish enough to go into the empty wing, I
answered.
At first it seemed to beimpossible, but I soon
devised a means.
I am naturally observant, as you may have remarked,
Mr.
Do you think that you couldperform one more feat?
The Rucastles will be gone by that time, and Toller will,we hope, be incapable. She
was never happy at home, Miss Alice wasnt, from the timethat her father married
again.
I was so terrified that I do not know what I did. I
remember nothinguntil I found myself lying on my bed trembling all over. Just look
up the trains in Bradshaw, said he, and turned backto his chemical studies. A loud
thudding noise came from somewhere downstairs. I did as I was told, and at the same
instant Mrs. Dont you see that the converse is equally valid.
