“ A Sherlock Ho By Sir A, Conan Doyle. "Permission of George Munro's Sons.) BYNOPSIS OF PRECEDING CHAPTERS. A rich American named Drebber {s found ered in a dest: ted Loridon house, De- tectives Lestrade and Gregson call Sherlock in consultation to clear up the mya- tery. Holmes deduces the theory that Drob- Ler was poisoned by a tall, forid man and Geta lnterviow the policeman who found tub bode the otiy Neng’ person in Might Pruner cabita Taolmen’ deciates Toseph mm tolmes haw-eummoned, WI ‘the latter's nome while the two do- eeetherg, “Holmen bandeutia, hin cfaurdertr of hoset pe, confesges and WAS o England Biasuised ann cobman, ‘had lured Drebhet t empty house and ‘here offered him his choles of two pills, one hagiiens "one polaikous. “Tue two Were ex: Hy allke.

I described Drebber’s death to him, and I gavo him the same choice of the po! gunod pills. The result of this duel was the same as Drebber’s case, fot Provi- Gence would’ never Have allowed his guilty hand to pick out anything but the polson. “T have little more to say, and it's as ‘well, for I am about done up. I went ‘on cabbing it for a day or so, intending to keep at tt until I could save enough to, take me back to America. I was standing in the yard when & mggod youngster asked if theré was a cabby there called Jefferson Hope, and said that his cab wes wanted by a gentle- man at No. 2b Baker street. I went round, suspecting no harm, and the next thing I knew thla young man here hhad the bracelets on my wrists, and 2a meatly shackled as.ever I was in my life. That's the whole of my story, gentiemen. You may consider me to be @ murderer; but I hold that I am just a@ much an officer of justice es you are.” Bo thrilling had the man's narrative deen, and his manner was so impressive, that we hed eat silent! and! absorbed. Even the professional detectives, blase as they were in every detail of orime, appeared to be keenly interested in the man’s story, When he finished we sat for some minutes in a stillness’ which was only broken by the saratching of Lestrade’s pencil as he gave the finish ing touches to his short-hand adcount. Now, gentleitien;"* thé inepector’ re marked gravely, ‘the forms of tie aw myst be complied with, On, Thursday, the prisoner will be brought before the magistrates and your attendance will be required, Until) then I will beresponal- bie for him. He rang the bell aa he spoke, and Jet, ferson Hope was led off by @ coup warders, while ty friend and I made eun way out of: the) staton and took | cab back to Baker street. We had all been warned to appear before the magistrates upon the Thurs- day, but when the Thursday came there was no occasion for our testimony. A higher Judge had taken the matter in hand and Jefferson Hope bad been summoned before @ tribunal where strlot justice’ woul! be meted’ out to him..

Never mind," he con- tinued, more brightly, after a pause, “L would not have missed the investigation for anything. There has been po better case within my recollection. Simple as It was there were severad most instruc- tive paints about it. ‘Simple!” I ejaculated. “Well. really, it ¢an hardly be de- scrlbed as otherwise,” sald Sherlock Holmes, smiling at my surprise. “The proof of its intrinsic simplicity ts that without any help, save a few very or- dinary deductions, I was able to lay my hand upon’ the criminal” within @iree days."’ “That ie true,” said 1 have already explained to you that what Is out of the common ts usuaily & guide rather than a hindrance.
