00:00The End
00:30In 1891, at the Reichenbach Falls, near Meiringen, in Switzerland,
00:54Sherlock Holmes finally closed his account with Professor Moriarty.
00:58The most dangerous criminal of his generation.
01:02The two men were alone in that dreadful place,
01:05but the outcome of their struggle was obvious to a trained observer.
01:09Holmes had achieved the destruction of his arch-enemy only at the cost of his own life.
01:28It is now three long years since my dear friend plunged to his death.
01:39There, deep down under the swirling water, the infamous Professor Moriarty and the foremost champion of law of his generation will lie together for all time.
01:50Even now, there is hardly a corner of London that does not remind me of my old friend.
01:57I never walked down Baker Street where we shared rooms for so much time.
02:04Even now, there is hardly a corner of London that does not remind me of my old friend.
02:19I never walked down Baker Street where we shared rooms for so many eventful years without it reminding me only too keenly of the past and the loss of one I shall ever regard as the best and wisest man I have ever known.
02:37I retained a keen interest in criminal matters and supplemented my meagre practice by working as a police surgeon.
03:03It was in the early spring of 1894 that I was called out early in the morning to an appointment in the West End.
03:13Morning, Council.
03:14Morning, Doctor. Inspector Lestrade is waiting for your first floor, sir.
03:27Inspector?
03:28Ah! Early call, I'm afraid, Doctor. I'm glad to see you.
03:32The Honourable Ronald Adair.
03:35Oh, not there, sir, if you please.
03:37Oh, I'm sorry.
03:45Age 23.
03:47A second son of the Earl and Countess of Maynooth.
03:51Father, governor of one of the Australian colonies.
03:54Mother in London for the winter.
03:56Son and daughter living in this house with her.
04:00Suicide?
04:01No, no.
04:03No weapon.
04:05Oh, er, this!
04:07The sign on the floor beside the corpse.
04:11It's one of those soft-nosed revolver bullets. Horrible things.
04:14Yes.
04:15Must have gone right through the poor fellow's head.
04:20It's unusual, isn't it, for a pistol to have such a velocity?
04:23More like a rifle.
04:25Yes.
04:27Well, it's murder then, Inspector.
04:29Oh, yes.
04:31Any idea who it was?
04:32No.
04:34It's early days yet, but this one looks to me as if it could turn out to be a bit of a puzzle.
04:39Hmm.
04:40Well, presumably he was, er, sitting in that chair.
04:44I suppose counting that money.
04:47Oh, the murderer doesn't appear to have been a thief.
04:51Adair had spent the evening playing cards at his club.
04:54Time for one last hand.
05:14Oh, yes, indeed.
05:15Now we can get our revenge.
05:17Well, Ronald, er, what's the damage?
05:47I guess we'll get them on to it.
05:48Let's go.
05:49I can't.
05:50Let's go.
05:51I'm sorry.
05:52I'm sorry.
05:53I am sorry.
05:56Are you okay?
05:58I have a serious sleep.
05:59I have a dream.
06:00I have a dream.
06:01I have a dream.
06:06It's not a dream.
06:07You think it's a dream.
06:09Okay.
06:13I am...
06:15What happened?
06:16Oh, my God.
06:46Ronald?
06:51Ronald?
06:55Ronald?
06:58Ronald?
07:06I'd believe Mr Ronald couldn't have gone out again.
07:09No, my lady. I heard him come home at about half past ten.
07:13He hasn't gone out again. Of that I'm sure.
07:22Mr Ronald?
07:27Mr Ronald, sir.
07:32Let's break it down, my lady.
07:43Well, from the condition of the body, death was instantaneous.
07:54I suppose the murder came in through the window.
07:57Well, the window was open.
08:00Strange part of the matter is that there were no signs of any intruder.
08:04Nothing. Inside or out.
08:11I wouldn't like to climb up here at night.
08:13Must have been a monkey.
08:17As you say, Doctor, an impossibility.
08:21Looks like the murderer had wings.
08:23The sort of case that would have interested our old friend, Mr Sherlock Holmes.
08:29Yes, indeed.
08:31What a loss he is, Doctor.
08:33Oh, I didn't always approve of his methods,
08:36but he was the best amateur there was, or ever likely to be.
08:40Well, there were times when he even got the better of me.
08:43All right, Inspector, if you arrange for our friend to be brought round to the mortuary,
08:47I'll conduct an autopsy this afternoon.
08:50Yes, indeed, Doctor.
08:52Well, see you at the inquest.
08:54Till then.
09:06Damage three nightists.
09:11Damage three nightists.
09:13Damage three nightists.
09:20Damage three nightists.
09:21Damage three nightists.
09:26Damage three nightists.
09:32Dr..
09:36Watson.
09:40You are a police surgeon.
09:43Yes, sir.
09:44You examined the deceased Ronald Francis Adair,
09:49who is the subject of this inquest,
09:51and later conducted a post-mortem on the corpse.
09:55I did, sir.
09:57Pray, what are your findings?
10:02A death occurred as the result of a bullet wound from a .45 revolver.
10:08Dr Watson, I beg you to keep to fact.
10:13My business is to establish the facts of this case.
10:19I'm sorry, sir. I don't understand.
10:21You say that the bullet came from a .45 revolver.
10:27That is pure speculation on your part.
10:30It is not your business to start guessing at the type of weapon used.
10:37That is a subject for the police.
10:43I'm sorry, sir.
10:45Pray, continue.
10:47Death occurred as the result of a wound from a soft-nosed lead bullet.
10:52The bullet penetrated the skull above the left eye,
10:58traversing the left frontal lobe through the cerebellum,
11:01and then exited from the skull at the back of the head by the left occipital parietal suture.
11:09In your opinion, when did death take place?
11:15Well, it would have been instantaneous.
11:17Have you any idea how far this bullet had travelled before it entered the body?
11:26I cannot be sure, but it would certainly be more than four or five feet.
11:32Time of death?
11:34A death occurred between 10.30 and 11.30, post-meridian, on the 20th of this month.
11:39Thank you, Dr. Watson.
11:49Ronald Adair and I were in the Harrow 11 together.
11:53He was a first-class bat.
11:55Pretty effective leg spinner.
11:57A good sportsman, in fact.
12:02Absolutely first-class sportsman, sir.
12:04Straight as a dive.
12:05One of the most popular fellows I know.
12:08Thank you, Mr. Murray.
12:15Sir John Hardy.
12:20I was Ronald Adair's godfather,
12:23and a trustee of the estate.
12:27Of course, the family is absolutely devastated by this appalling tragedy.
12:31I put the boy up for the Bagatelle Club, as a matter of fact.
12:37He always enjoyed a game of cards.
12:40Win or lose.
12:42Would that affect Mr. Adair in any way, Sir John?
12:45Good Lord, no.
12:46Not in the least.
12:48He never played such high stakes they could affect him at all.
12:53The family fortune is a very considerable one.
12:57Thank you, Sir John.
13:00You have been a great help.
13:02And may I say,
13:04that evidence from such a distinguished person as yourself
13:07is greatly valued by the court.
13:12Colonel Moran.
13:14You were the last person known to have seen Mr. Adair.
13:20Did you know him well?
13:22I wouldn't say that I knew Ronald Adair well.
13:25Knew his father, Lord Maynoth, very well.
13:28Used to play polo together in India.
13:31But Ronald...
13:32I've seen quite a good bit of him at our clubs over the past few months.
13:38We've played cards together from time to time.
13:41Oh, charming boy.
13:44Good manners, intelligent.
13:47Matter of fact, he's just the stamp of young fellow
13:49I'd like to see joining my old regiment.
13:52Did you notice anything unusual about him?
13:54Did he seem worried or upset on the last evening you saw him?
14:00Not in the least.
14:01Quite the opposite, in fact.
14:02Have you any idea why someone should choose to murder him?
14:10No idea at all.
14:12I doubt if he had an enemy in the world.
14:15Thank you, Colonel Moran.
14:19Inspector Lestrade,
14:21would you give me your opinion as to the cause
14:24of the Honourable Ronald Adair's death?
14:29Yes, sir.
14:29Willful murder by person or persons unknown.
14:49Willful murder by person or persons unknown.
14:55Willful murder by person or persons unknown.
14:57Yes, sir.
14:58Nope, sir.
14:58No, sir.
14:59No, sir.
15:02Yes.
15:03Mr. Blitzgrove-Kentzinger, please, Cavish.
15:12Yes.
15:12Yes.
15:13Yes.
15:13Yes.
15:21Yes.
15:25Gentleman to see you, Doctor.
15:27Is it an urgent matter?
15:29I don't know, Doctor.
15:31What?
15:32Did he give you his card?
15:33No, Doctor.
15:36Ivy, if I've told you once, I've told you a hundred times,
15:39my consulting hours are plainly displayed outside.
15:42Now, please.
15:43Oh, sir.
15:46Dr. Watson, is it?
15:47Yes, indeed, sir.
15:49You may go, Ivy.
15:50I am exceedingly busy, sir.
15:52Of course you are, Doctor.
15:53Of course you are a man of considerable responsibilities.
15:57But I hope to give your address to that cab driver outside the court.
15:59And I say to myself, I'll just hobble around and see that kind gentleman.
16:03You see, I have a conscience, sir.
16:06And tell him that if I was a little gruff in my manner,
16:09I meant no harm by it.
16:10And I much obliged to him helping me pick up my books.
16:14You make too much of a trifle, sir.
16:15You should have spared yourself the journey.
16:17Now, if you'll excuse me.
16:18No great journey, sir.
16:19I am a nail bird of yours.
16:22You will find my little bookshop on the corner of Church Street.
16:25May I sit down?
16:26Ah.
16:28Ah.
16:28I'm very happy to see you, I'm sure, Doctor.
16:32Perhaps...
16:33You collect?
16:38I have the British Burlets, Catalypha, and quite a rare volume of the Holy War.
16:47Bargains, every one of them.
16:49Just the books you need to fill up your bookcase.
16:52Give it a little weight.
16:53It does.
16:53Don't get it untidy, does it?
16:54Come on.
17:03Watson, do you mind if I smoke a cigarette in your consulting room?
17:24Oh, Holmes.
17:30A thousand apologies, my dear Watson.
17:33I had no idea that you'd be so affected.
17:36Oh, is it really you?
17:38Can it really be that you're alive?
17:41But are you really fit enough to discuss things?
17:43I have given you a serious shock by my unnecessarily dramatic reappearance.
17:47No, no, no.
17:48I'm all right, Tom.
17:50I'm all right.
17:52That's indeed, Holmes.
17:53Holmes, I can hardly believe my eyes.
17:55Good heavens, to think that you, you, of all men, should be here in my consulting room.
18:04You're not a spirit, at least, my dear chap.
18:08I'm overjoyed to see you.
18:09Sit down, sit down.
18:11And tell me how you came alive out of that awful chasm.
18:17Oh, I'm glad to stretch myself.
18:19Oh, my dear fellow, we have a hard and dangerous night's work ahead of us.
18:38Perhaps it'd be better if I gave you a count of the whole situation when that work is finished.
18:44No, no, no.
18:45I'm full of curiosity.
18:47I should much prefer to hear now.
18:49But you will come with me tonight.
18:51When you like, where you like.
18:53Ha!
18:54Ha!
18:55Watson.
18:55Listen, this is just like the old days.
19:00You might have a chance for the mouthful of dinner before we meet, girl.
19:03Dinner, of course, but first, you must tell me everything.
19:06You sure you're all right?
19:07No, I'm fine.
19:11Well, then.
19:15About that chasm.
19:16Watson, I had no serious difficulty in getting out of it for the simpler reason that I was never in it.
19:24You were never in it?
19:25No, Watson.
19:27I never was in it.
19:30The note that I left on the rock at the Reichenbach Falls was absolutely genuine.
19:35I had little doubt that my career had come to an end when I perceived the somewhat sinister figure of Moriarty standing upon the narrow pathway that lived to safety.
19:53I read an inexperable purpose in his gray eyes.
19:58I managed to obtain his courteous permission to write the note which you afterwards received.
20:05It has remained my most treasured possession.
20:16It was a few months later that I read with great interest your description of my death.
20:22It was excellently done, a most picturesque and exciting piece of fiction.
20:28Well, I'm certainly glad from the bottom of my heart that it was fiction.
20:32But what did really happen?
20:35It was a exhibition to work on the space of joy.
20:36It was just an amazing thing.
20:59It was a pleasure to worship.
21:00I think you had a great preference in my mind.
21:00It was wonderful.
21:01When I reached the ledge, I stood at bay.
21:08He drew no weapon, but rushed at me, until his long arms run me.
21:13He knew that his game was on, and was only anxious to revenge himself upon me.
21:19I have, however, some knowledge of Baritsu, or the Japanese system of wrestling,
21:25which has, on more than one occasion, been very useful to me.
21:31My God.
21:35But, but how did you get away from that place?
21:40It was not a pleasant business.
21:48Even as Professor Moriarty disappeared into oblivion,
21:52it struck me what an extraordinary lucky chance fate had placed in my way.
21:58I knew that at least one of Moriarty's henchmen would seek my demise now,
22:04with even keener determination to revenge their dead leader.
22:08But if I could convince the world that I too was dead,
22:12so I decided
22:14to disappear, then and there.
22:20I saw them with my own eyes.
22:30Two went down the path, and none returned.
22:32I'm not a fanciful, Mr. Watson.
22:44But I give you my word, there were times,
22:47during that climb,
22:49when I seemed to hear Moriarty's voice
22:52screaming at me from out of the abyss.
22:55I love you, Mr. Watson.
23:14.
23:15.
23:20At last I reached a place where I was able to remain unseen.
23:50Homes!
24:08Homes!
24:12Homes!
24:16Homes!
24:22Homes!
24:24Homes!
24:26Homes!
24:28Homes!
24:30Homes!
24:32Homes!
24:36Homes!
24:38Homes!
24:42Homes!
24:44Homes!
24:48Homes!
24:50Homes!
24:52Homes!
24:54Homes!
24:56Homes!
24:58Homes!
25:00Homes!
25:02Homes!
25:04Homes!
25:06Homes!
25:08Homes!
25:10Homes!
25:12Homes!
25:14Homes!
25:15Homes!
25:16Homes!
25:18Homes!
25:20At last, when you had all fallen into your inevitable but totally erroneous conclusions, you departed.
25:50It was time for me to be on my way.
26:20I was waiting for you to be on my way.
26:35I was waiting for you to be on my way.
26:43Of course, the meaning of this was obvious.
26:59Moriarty had not been alone.
27:01A confederate, from a distance, had been witness to his friend's demise and my escape.
27:13I did not take long to think about it, Watson.
27:20I took to my heels and covered ten miles over the mountains in the pending darkness.
27:32A week later, I found myself in Florence, with the certainty that no one in the world knew what had become of me.
27:43I had one confidant.
27:49My brother, Mycroft.
27:51I had to confide in him in order to obtain the money I needed to live.
27:55Of course.
27:57I owe you many apologies, my dear Watson.
28:01But it was all important that it should be thought I was dead.
28:04And it is quite certain that you would not have written so convincing an account of my unhappy end,
28:09had you yourself not thought that it was true.
28:13I have taken up my pen to write to you, but always I feared
28:18lest your affectionate regard might tempt you to some indiscretion which would betray my secret.
28:24I would have thought I was as trustworthy as your brother.
28:37Of course you are, Watson.
28:43But you have a kind to her heart.
28:47But what have you done all these long years?
28:50Well, you may have read of the remarkable explorations of a Norwegian called Sigurdsson.
29:01But I'm sure it never occurred to you that you were receiving news of your friend.
29:04You.
29:04For two years, I travelled to Tibet
29:11and amused myself by visiting Lhasa and spending some time with the head lama.
29:17I then moved to Persia
29:19and paid a short but interesting visit to the Khalifa in Khartoum.
29:26The results of which I passed down to Lord Kitchener on the foreign office, anonymously, of course.
29:30You mean you actually saw the palace where Gordon was murdered?
29:35It was a solid site.
29:37A ruin.
29:40His blood still upon the staircase.
29:45Lately I've been in France, in Montpellier, researching into the coal tower derivatives.
29:52Then came the news of this remarkable murder.
29:54which not only appealed to me by its own merits
29:59but which seemed to offer some most
30:01peculiar
30:02personal opportunities.
30:07So here I am.
30:10Have you been to Baker Street?
30:11Yes.
30:12I called there this morning in my own person.
30:14I am.
30:23Oh, I have been to my home.
30:26Oh, oh.
30:29Oh, oh.
30:31Oh.
30:34Oh, oh.
30:38Oh, oh.
30:39Oh, oh.
30:40Oh, oh.
30:41Oh, oh.
30:43Oh, oh.
30:43Oh, oh.
30:44My craft had preserved my rooms
31:10and my papers exactly as they had always been.
31:14And so it was that I found myself in my old rooms
31:32sitting in my old chair
31:35and only wishing that I could have seen
31:37my dear friend Watson sitting in the other chair
31:40which he has so often adorned.
31:42And so I hope I will be.
31:46What a remarkable story.
31:53Are you still in possession of your army revolver?
31:56Well, I think I have it somewhere.
31:58See that you bring it with you tonight.
32:00But I have a piece of work for both of us
32:04which, if we bring to a successful conclusion,
32:07will in itself justify a man's life on this planet.
32:11I beg you to tell me about it.
32:16Ah, you will see and hear enough before morning.
32:23Watson, may I occupy your couch for a few hours?
32:27The sea was exceedingly rough during the Channel Crossing
32:29and the prospect of seeing London again
32:32and an imminent encounter
32:34with one of Moriarty's Confederates
32:36plus the added pleasure
32:37of seeing my old friend Watson
32:39quite prohibited in sleep on the railway train.
32:42My dear Holmes, please.
32:43My bedroom is at your disposal.
32:45No, no, no, no.
32:46This will suit me very well.
32:49I've had harder beds than this
32:50in the past few years.
32:52Oh, my goodness.
32:58Ow!
33:00Come on.
33:30Come on.
34:00Come on.
34:30Come on.
35:00Come on.
35:30Do you know where we are?
35:33Surely that is Baker Street.
35:34Exactly.
35:36We're in the empty house opposite our old cautious.
35:38Why are we here?
35:41Because it commands such an extant view of that picturesque pile.
35:45Might I trouble you, Watson, to be so kind as to draw a little nearer to the window, taking every precaution not to reveal yourself, and then to look into our old rooms.
35:53Let us see whether three years of absence have entirely taken away my power to surprise you.
35:59Good heavens.
36:06Good heavens.
36:24It's marvelous.
36:26It's marvelous.
36:27I trust that age is not with no custom stale, my infinite variety.
36:36It is rather like me, is it, Bart?
36:40I should be prepared to swear it was you.
36:41The construction is due to a monsieur Oscar Manier of Grenoble.
36:46The bus is in wax.
36:48The rest I arranged during my visit to Baker Street earlier.
36:52But why?
36:53By God, I had the strongest possible reason for wishing certain people to believe that I was there, when I was really elsewhere.
37:02You thought the rooms were watched?
37:03I knew they were being watched.
37:07By whom?
37:08By the one remaining member of that charming society whose leader lies in the Reichenbach Falls.
37:17Sooner or later, he believed that I would come back to my room, so he had them watched continuously.
37:23I was observed when I arrived this morning.
37:32I recognized the sentinel.
37:38Parker, by name.
37:42A garotter by trade.
37:44And a remarkable exponent of one at Jewish heart.
37:53Now I understand the reason for the old bookseller.
37:59I cared not a jot about Parker, but I cared a great deal about the much more formidable person who was behind him.
38:09The bosom friend of Moriarty.
38:11That is the man who is after me tonight.
38:20And let us hope that he is also the man who is totally unaware that we are after him.
38:42Holmes look just beyond the house
39:08a couple of shady characters in the doorway.
39:13Yes, I see them.
39:15Shouldn't we do something?
39:17Holmes.
39:21The shadow's moved.
39:24Certainly it has moved.
39:26I involved Mrs. Hudson.
39:28We've been in this room two hours
39:30and she has made some change in that figure eight times,
39:34or once every call.
39:38We've been waiting for the job a few months to come.
39:41We've seen a lot of things.
39:44We've been doing a lot of things here.
39:47We've got a little fun stuff.
39:50Let's go on for this.
39:52Let's go.
39:55All right.
40:25All right.
40:55All right.
41:25All right.
41:55All right.
42:25All right.
42:54All right.
43:24All right.
43:54All right.
44:24Well, that sounds reasonable.
44:27Anything further to say before we go?
44:30Only to ask what charge you intend to prefer.
44:35What charge, sir?
44:36Of course, the attempted murder of Mr. Sherlock Holmes.
44:40Not so, Lestrade.
44:41All right.
44:42All right.
44:43All right.
44:44All right.
44:45All right.
44:46All right.
44:47All right.
44:48All right.
44:49All right.
44:50All right.
44:51All right.
44:52All right.
44:53All right.
44:54All right.
44:55All right.
44:56All right.
44:57All right.
44:58All right.
44:59All right.
45:00All right.
45:01All right.
45:02All right.
45:03All right.
45:04All right.
45:05All right.
45:06All right.
45:07All right.
45:08All right.
45:09All right.
45:10All right.
45:11All right.
45:12All right.
45:13All right.
45:14All right.
45:17You were quite the heroine of the occasion, Mrs. Hudson.
45:18Oh, I don't know, I'm sure, sir.
45:21Ha, ha, ha, ha.
45:22I hope you observed all precautions.
45:24Oh, yes, sir.
45:25I went with on my knee just exactly as you told me.
45:28Ha!
45:29H'm a good crick in my back to prove it.
45:31Oh, I wasn't half frightened, Doctor.
45:33And when that window shattered, ha, I thought I should've died.
45:39Yes, you did it very well, Mrs. Hudson.
45:41there's no sign of a bullet. oh excuse me sir a moment if you please I have it
45:54here. I picked it up off the carpet. Mrs. Hutton you are becoming indispensable.
46:01a soft revolver bullet as you perceive there's genius in that for who would expect such a thing
46:19to be fired from an air gun. it's no ordinary air gun. no indeed a remarkable and unique weapon
46:26noiseless and of tremendous power. I knew von Herder the blind German mechanic who constructed
46:33it to the order of the late Professor James Moriarty. Watson look at this. the old Shikari's
46:41nerves had not lost their steadiness nor his eyes their keenness. the results are appalling. yes indeed.
46:49had you heard of the name Moran before Adair's murder? no I had not. well well well
46:56such is the price of fame. would you be so kind to hand me down my L to M index of biographies Watson.
47:02my list of M's is a fine one. mind you Moriarty's name is enough to make any letter illustrious.
47:08I seem to remember Morgan the Poisoner. Meridue of abominable memory and there was Matthews who
47:19knocked out my left canine in Charing Cross station. ah there is our friend of last night.
47:27Moran. Sebastian Colonel son of Sir Augustus Moran. once British minister to Persia. educated
47:34Eton Oxford. served in Jawaki campaign. Afghan campaign. Sherpa Cobb. mentioned in dispatches.
47:42the second most dangerous man in London. this is astonishing Holmes. this is the career of an
47:50honorable soldier. it's true. up to a certain point he did well. you know there are some trees Watson
47:57which grow to a certain height and then suddenly develop some unsightly eccentricity. you will
48:02often find it in humans. whatever the cause Moran began to go wrong. without an open scandal he still
48:10made India too hot to hold him. he retired came back to London when again he
48:15acquired an evil name. it was about this time but he was sought out by a professor
48:19Moriarty. when we were in Switzerland Watson Moran followed us with Moriarty and
48:27it was undoubtedly he who gave me those evil five minutes above the Reichenbach
48:31Falls. now I can understand why you disappeared. with a fellow like this free in
48:36London. your life would not have been worth living. all I could do was wait and watch the
48:45criminal news knowing that if I was patient sooner or later he would make a
48:49mistake. when I heard of the murder of Ronald Adair I knew that at last my
48:54chance had come. knowing what I did was it not certain that Colonel Moran had done it.
49:01he played cards with the lad. followed him home from his club and shot him through the open window from the roof top opposite.
49:13Watson does anything else remain for me to explain? yes.
49:20you have not made clear what was Moran's motive in murdering the Honorable Ronald Adair.
49:32there we move into the realms of conjecture. each may form his own
49:39hypothesis upon the present evidence and yours is as likely to be correct as
49:43mine. Watson have you formed one? hmm. I think so. let me hear. well it's not difficult to explain the facts. there must have been a considerable amount of money involved and Moran had undoubtedly played foul.
50:01I think that Adair had discovered that he was cheating. splendid. very likely he spoke to him privately and threatened to expose Moran unless he voluntarily resigned membership of his club and promised not to play again.
50:14Watson this is excellent.
50:16an exclusion from his club would mean ruin to Moran who lived by his ill-gotten card gains.
50:23therefore he murdered to death. will it pass?
50:33I think without doubt that you have hit upon the truth.
50:38anyway it will be verified or disproved at the trial. meanwhile come what may
50:42Colonel Moran will trouble us no more.
50:46and the famous air gun of Von Herder will embellish the Scotland Yard Museum.
50:53come in.
51:01once again Mr. Sherlock Holmes is free to devote his life to examining those interesting little problems which the complex life of London so plentifully presents.
