Sherlock Holmes - The Mazarin Stone

<v Speaker 1>Chevy Capital, My dear Watson, let us return to a
<v Speaker 1>humble above two two one b Bakers maintains came.
<v Speaker 2>From London.
<v Speaker 3>We present The Mazarine Stone by Michael Hardwick, based on
<v Speaker 3>a short story by star Arthica and Doyle, The Mazarine Stone.
<v Speaker 4>It was pleasant to find myself once more in the
<v Speaker 4>untidy room on the first floor of number.
<v Speaker 2>Two to one B Baker Street, which had been the
<v Speaker 2>starting point of so many remarkable adventures.
<v Speaker 4>I looked round me at the scientific charts upon the wall,
<v Speaker 4>the acid charred bench of chemicals, the violin case leaning
<v Speaker 4>in the corner, the cold scuttle which contained as of old,
<v Speaker 4>the pipes and back. Finally, my eyes came round to
<v Speaker 4>the fresh and smiling face of Billy, the young but
<v Speaker 4>very wise and tactful page who had helped to fill
<v Speaker 4>up the gap of loneliness and isolation which surroundly in
<v Speaker 4>the Saturday and figure.
<v Speaker 2>Of the greed to take you. Now that I was
<v Speaker 2>married again and living in Beddington, Ah, it all seems
<v Speaker 2>very unchanged. Believe you don't change that now. I hope
<v Speaker 2>the same come instead of him. I think he's imbedding asleep.
<v Speaker 2>Dot Watson and it's seven o'clock of a lovely summer's evening.
<v Speaker 2>That means the case. I suppose History's very odd at it.
<v Speaker 5>Just now I'm frightening for hisself. He gets paler and
<v Speaker 5>thinner and east nothing. Will't you be pleased to die?
<v Speaker 5>Mister Romesis. She had to nask him seven point thirty
<v Speaker 5>the day after tomorrow. He told her, you know his
<v Speaker 5>way when he's keen on the case. Yes, yes, really
<v Speaker 5>I know he's following someone. I can tell you that
<v Speaker 5>History was out as a workman looking for a job.
<v Speaker 5>Today was old woman fairly took me, and he did,
<v Speaker 5>And I want to know his ways. By now, this
<v Speaker 5>old parasol here against the sofa, well that's part of
<v Speaker 5>the woman's outfit.
<v Speaker 2>You know what it's all about.
<v Speaker 5>Well, it's this case of the crown diamond.
<v Speaker 2>What the one hundred thousand pound burglar? Yes, they must
<v Speaker 2>get it back.
<v Speaker 5>So woh, we had the Prime Minister and the old
<v Speaker 5>Secretary both sitting on that very sofa. Miss Romes was
<v Speaker 5>very nice to them. He se him put them at
<v Speaker 5>their ease and promised that you'd do all he could.
<v Speaker 5>Then there's Lord Cantlemere. I can't stand his lorter nother
<v Speaker 5>on mister Romster. You see, you do believe in mister Romes.
<v Speaker 5>And he was against employing him. He'd rather fail.
<v Speaker 4>Well, we'll hope he won't fail, and that Lord cancell
<v Speaker 4>Know will be confounded.
<v Speaker 2>They said, did here what's the curtain for across the window?
<v Speaker 5>Oh, mister Romes had it put there three days ago,
<v Speaker 5>and we've got something funny behind it, something funny.
<v Speaker 2>You can see it, so lesser soul, the perfect replica,
<v Speaker 2>Shlock Holmes, old blessing God, and all.
<v Speaker 5>See how the head can move about, Or we put
<v Speaker 5>it at different angles, it'll be more lifelike.
<v Speaker 2>I wouldn't dare at touch it if the blind weren't
<v Speaker 2>down mine. But when it's up you can see this
<v Speaker 2>from right across the way. Yes, we used some of
<v Speaker 2>the other sword once before.
<v Speaker 6>You know.
<v Speaker 5>Oh that must have been before my time, sir. There
<v Speaker 5>are a folk who watch it from overy on them.
<v Speaker 5>I can see your far now.
<v Speaker 2>You were in danger of your life then, my boy,
<v Speaker 2>and I can't do without you just yet. Well, my
<v Speaker 2>dear Watson, it's good to see you in your old
<v Speaker 2>quarters once agether do you come at a critical moment? Oh,
<v Speaker 2>I gather you can go, Billy. That boy is a problem, Watson.
<v Speaker 2>How far am I justified in allowing him to be
<v Speaker 2>in danger, danger of what helms of sudden death and
<v Speaker 2>expecting something to see me? Expect you what to be
<v Speaker 2>murdered once? Oh, come come home. You're joking. Even my
<v Speaker 2>limited sense of humor could evolve a better joke than death.
<v Speaker 2>But we may be comfortable in the meantime. Maybe not.
<v Speaker 2>Is alcohol a bitted the gene and regards of the
<v Speaker 2>old place, how they let me see you once more
<v Speaker 2>in the customary aunt Cher, thank you, that's Watson, your
<v Speaker 2>very good health. My dear father. You you have not,
<v Speaker 2>I hope, learned to despise my pipe and my lamentable tobacco.
<v Speaker 2>It it has to take the place of food these days,
<v Speaker 2>because the fact has become refined when you start them.
<v Speaker 2>But surely, as a doctor, my dear Watson, you must
<v Speaker 2>admit that what your digestion gains the way of blood
<v Speaker 2>supply is so much loss to the brain. I am
<v Speaker 2>a brain, Watson. The rest of me is a mere appendix.
<v Speaker 2>Therefore it is the brain I must consider it's with
<v Speaker 2>this dangers. Yes, in case it should come off, it
<v Speaker 2>would perhaps do as well, that you should burden your
<v Speaker 2>memory with the name and address of the murderer. You
<v Speaker 2>could give it a scust and yard with my love
<v Speaker 2>and a parting blessing. Sylvia says the name Count Negretto's Sylvia.
<v Speaker 2>Or write it down, then write it down one three,
<v Speaker 2>six more side gardens, nw. I've nothing to do for
<v Speaker 2>it there too, you can count on me. Your morals
<v Speaker 2>don't improve, Watson. You bear it fibbing to your other vices.
<v Speaker 2>You bear every time of a busy medical man with
<v Speaker 2>calls on in every hour, not such important ones. But
<v Speaker 2>can't you have this fellow arrested? Yes? I could. That's
<v Speaker 2>what what is in sir? Why don't you? Because I
<v Speaker 2>don't know where the diamond is?
<v Speaker 4>Ah?
<v Speaker 2>Will you tell me the missing ground jewel? Yes, the
<v Speaker 2>great yellow Mazarin stone. I've cast my net and I
<v Speaker 2>have my fish, but I've not got the stone. What's
<v Speaker 2>the use of taking them?
<v Speaker 4>Oh?
<v Speaker 2>We can make the world a better place by laying
<v Speaker 2>them by the heels. But that's not what I'm out for.
<v Speaker 2>It's the stone I want. And is this Count Sylvius
<v Speaker 2>one of your fish?
<v Speaker 4>Yes?
<v Speaker 2>And he's a shark he buy Oh? The other is
<v Speaker 2>Sam Murton, the boxer. Not a bad fellow, Sam, but
<v Speaker 2>the Count has used him. He's a great, big, silly,
<v Speaker 2>bull headed gudgeon. But he's flopping about in my net
<v Speaker 2>all the same. Where is this Count Silvius. I've been
<v Speaker 2>at his very elbow all the morning. You've seen me
<v Speaker 2>as an old lady, Watson. I was never more convincing.
<v Speaker 2>He actually picked up my parasol for me. One by
<v Speaker 2>your leave, madam said, He half Italian. You know all
<v Speaker 2>the sudden graces of manner when he's in the mood.
<v Speaker 2>But he's a devil in kindness in the other mood.
<v Speaker 2>Life is full of whimsical happenings, Watson, it might have
<v Speaker 2>been tragedy. Well perhaps at night. I've followed him to
<v Speaker 2>Owe Tarbanzay's workshop in the Minas Starbanza made the air
<v Speaker 2>gun a very pretty bit of work, and I rather
<v Speaker 2>fancy it's in the opposite window at the present moment.
<v Speaker 2>Billy showed you the dummy, Well, it may get a
<v Speaker 2>bullet through its beautiful head at any moment, Miss ramsall Ah,
<v Speaker 2>believe what is it.
<v Speaker 7>There's a gentleman to see you, sir. Here's his God,
<v Speaker 7>Thank you, ah, the man himself. I hardly expected this,
<v Speaker 7>grasped the little Watson, a man of nerve. Possibly you've
<v Speaker 7>heard of his reputation as a shooter of big game.
<v Speaker 7>Oh of course, well it would be a ply humph
<v Speaker 7>and hiding. Indeed to his ext to the sporting record
<v Speaker 7>that he had Medory's back. This is a proof that
<v Speaker 7>he feels my toe very close to his heel.
<v Speaker 2>Said for the police homes. I probably shall, but not
<v Speaker 2>just yet. Would you glance carefully out of the window, Watson,
<v Speaker 2>and see if anyone is hanging about in the street. Oh, yes,
<v Speaker 2>there's one rather door death will be Sam Merton, but faithful,
<v Speaker 2>but rather fatuous Sam aways this gentleman Billy. Show him up,
<v Speaker 2>and I ring, if I'm not in the room, show
<v Speaker 2>him in all the same, Very good sir. Now look here, Holmes,
<v Speaker 2>this is simply impossible. This is a desperate man who
<v Speaker 2>sticks at nothing. You'll have me believe he may have
<v Speaker 2>come to murder you. I shouldn't disapproved, and I insist
<v Speaker 2>on saying with you, you'll be horribly in the way, No,
<v Speaker 2>my dear fellow, in my way. Well be that as
<v Speaker 2>it may. I can't possibly believe. Yes, you can, Watson,
<v Speaker 2>and you will, for you've never failed to play the game.
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure you will play to the end. Of course,
<v Speaker 2>this man has come for his own purpose, but he
<v Speaker 2>may stay for money. Nar then take this note Triten. Yes,
<v Speaker 2>take a cab to Scotland Yard and get this to
<v Speaker 2>y'all of the CID come back with the police. The
<v Speaker 2>fellow's arrest will follow. Oh, I'll joy before you return.
<v Speaker 2>I may have just time enough to find out where
<v Speaker 2>the stone is. And then I'll just ring for Billy
<v Speaker 2>to show him up. And I think you'll go out
<v Speaker 2>through the bedroom. This second exit is exceedingly useful. You know,
<v Speaker 2>I rather want to see my shark without his seeing me,
<v Speaker 2>and I have, as you remember, my own way of doing. Yes,
<v Speaker 2>the effigy home. Shouldn't the curtain be drawn over again?
<v Speaker 3>No?
<v Speaker 2>No, no, no, relieve it as it is? Oh, perhaps
<v Speaker 2>just attached to this splendid head a little forward on
<v Speaker 2>the chest, as though somewhere in the middle of forty rings. Yeah,
<v Speaker 2>and then come on on, I only help your are
<v Speaker 2>doing all anyha please? Oh miss him?
<v Speaker 4>So, I.
<v Speaker 2>How very con don't break it, can't don't break what
<v Speaker 2>homes it's a pretty little thing, isn't it? The French
<v Speaker 2>muddler made it. He's as good at wexperts as your friends.
<v Speaker 2>Talvinsay is an air gun? Air guns? What do you mean? Oh?
<v Speaker 2>Put your hat and stick on the side table before
<v Speaker 2>you attempted to do any other form of Dennis? Very well,
<v Speaker 2>thank you, and pray take a seat. Oh would you
<v Speaker 2>care to put your revolver out? Also? Very well if
<v Speaker 2>you prefer to sit on it. The ob visit is
<v Speaker 2>really most opportune, can't tek Is I wanted there? Did?
<v Speaker 2>I have a few minutes to chat with you? And
<v Speaker 2>I too wish to have words with you, Holmes. That
<v Speaker 2>is why I am here. I won't deny that I
<v Speaker 2>intended to assault you just now. I rather gathered that
<v Speaker 2>you had some idea of the thought in your head.
<v Speaker 2>But by these personal attentions, because you have gone out of.
<v Speaker 4>Your way to annoy me, because you have put your
<v Speaker 4>creatures upon my track, my creatures, I assure you no nonsense,
<v Speaker 4>I have had them followed.
<v Speaker 2>Two can play at that game, homes. It's a small point,
<v Speaker 2>can't Sylvius? But perhaps you'd kindly give me my prefix
<v Speaker 2>when you address me. You can understand that with my
<v Speaker 2>routine of work, I should find myself on familiar terms
<v Speaker 2>with half rogues gallery. And you will agree that exceptions
<v Speaker 2>are invidious. Well, miss Holmes ex but I assure you
<v Speaker 2>that you are mistaken about my alleged agent. Other people
<v Speaker 2>can observe as well as you. Yesterday there was an
<v Speaker 2>old spotting man. Today it's not an elderly woman. They
<v Speaker 2>helped me in view all day to really say you continent?
<v Speaker 2>Did oh? Baron Dawson said the knight before he was
<v Speaker 2>hanged that in my case, what the law had gained,
<v Speaker 2>the stage had lost. And now you give my little
<v Speaker 2>impersonations your kindly praise. It was you you sent you
<v Speaker 2>can see in the corner of the parasol which you
<v Speaker 2>so politely handed to me in the minery before you
<v Speaker 2>began to suspect what you say now on the mixed matters. Worse,
<v Speaker 2>it was not your agents, but.
<v Speaker 4>Your prey acting busybody self.
<v Speaker 2>You admit that you have done why nakants you used
<v Speaker 2>to shoot lions in Algeria? Well, but why why?
<v Speaker 4>Who?
<v Speaker 2>The sport the excitement of danger and no doubt to
<v Speaker 2>free the country from a test exactly my reasons? In
<v Speaker 2>a nuts does the dancer, sit down and take your
<v Speaker 2>hand away from your hip pocket. Thank you. There was
<v Speaker 2>another more practical reason I want that yellow diamond. Ah,
<v Speaker 2>you knew that I was after you for that. The
<v Speaker 2>real reason why you're here tonight is to find out
<v Speaker 2>how much I know about the matter and how far
<v Speaker 2>my removal is absolutely essential. Well, I should say that
<v Speaker 2>from your point of view, it is absolutely essential. But
<v Speaker 2>I know all about it save only one thing, which
<v Speaker 2>you are about to tell me. Indeed, and pray, what
<v Speaker 2>is this missing fact? Where the crown diamond is? Now?
<v Speaker 2>You want to know that? Do you? How the devil
<v Speaker 2>should I be able to tell you where it is?
<v Speaker 2>You can and you will. Indeed, you can't bluff me.
<v Speaker 2>Count Sylvius, you are absolute plate glass. I see it
<v Speaker 2>to the very back of your mind. But then, of
<v Speaker 2>course you see why the garment is a hard Then
<v Speaker 2>you do know you have admitted I admit nothing now can't.
<v Speaker 2>If you will be reasonable, we can do business. If not,
<v Speaker 2>you will get hurt. And you talk about bluff. Do
<v Speaker 2>you know what I keeped in this book? No, sir,
<v Speaker 2>I do not you me, Yes, sir, you you are
<v Speaker 2>all here, every action of your vile and dangerous life.
<v Speaker 2>Can your homes it's all yeah, can't the real taxes
<v Speaker 2>to the death of all missus Harold who left you
<v Speaker 2>the glimer estake which you so readily gambled away, ah,
<v Speaker 2>your dream and the complete life history of miss Many Warrander. Yeah,
<v Speaker 2>you've made nothing of that. Twenty more here can't. Here
<v Speaker 2>is the robbery and the trend that looks to the
<v Speaker 2>Roderer on February the thirteen, eighteen ninety two. Here is
<v Speaker 2>the Fords check in the same year on the crady leone.
<v Speaker 2>What is all this taught? With the jewel who spoke
<v Speaker 2>about gently can't restrain their eager mind. Let me get
<v Speaker 2>to the points in my own hand drum fashion. I
<v Speaker 2>have all this against you, but above all I have
<v Speaker 2>a clear case against both you and your fighting bully
<v Speaker 2>in the case of the Crown Diamond. Indeed, I had
<v Speaker 2>the cabman who took you to Whitehall and the cabman
<v Speaker 2>who brought you away. I have the commissionaire who saw
<v Speaker 2>you near the case. I have Ikey Saunders who refused
<v Speaker 2>to cut it up for you. I kin have speeched
<v Speaker 2>and the game is up you. That's the hand I
<v Speaker 2>play for I put it all upon the table, but
<v Speaker 2>one card is missing. It's the King of Diamond. I
<v Speaker 2>don't know where the stone is and you never shall know. No, now,
<v Speaker 2>be reasonable. Can't consider the situation. You are going to
<v Speaker 2>be locked up for twenty years, Sir is Semmler. What
<v Speaker 2>good are you going to get out of your diamond?
<v Speaker 2>None in the world. But if you hand it over,
<v Speaker 2>well I'll compound a felony. We don't want your Sam,
<v Speaker 2>we want the stone. Get that up and so far
<v Speaker 2>as I'm concerned, you can go free so long as
<v Speaker 2>you behave your set in the future. If you make
<v Speaker 2>another slip, well it will be the last. But this
<v Speaker 2>time my commission is to get the stone, not you.
<v Speaker 2>And if I refuse, why then alas it must be
<v Speaker 2>you and not the stone. Did you yestiny? I think
<v Speaker 2>count that it would be as well to have your
<v Speaker 2>friend Sam at this conference, After all, his interests should
<v Speaker 2>be represented. Billy, you will see a large and ugly
<v Speaker 2>gentleman outside the front door. Ask him to come up.
<v Speaker 2>Very goods and what do you intend to do now?
<v Speaker 2>My friend Dr Watson was with me just now. I
<v Speaker 2>told him that I had a shark and a gudgeon
<v Speaker 2>in my net. Now I am drawing the net, and
<v Speaker 2>up they come together. Oh it's no use fingering your
<v Speaker 2>revolver behind your back, my friend. Even if I gave
<v Speaker 2>you time to draw it, you know perfectly well you
<v Speaker 2>dare not use it. Nasty noisy things, revolver letter, stick
<v Speaker 2>to air gun. I think I hear the fairy footsteps
<v Speaker 2>of your estimable partner. Good day, mister Martin. Rather dull
<v Speaker 2>in the streets, is it not?
<v Speaker 4>What's the guy?
<v Speaker 2>Cuts? Shut? All? Please? Okay? You whats your fellow want? Cut?
<v Speaker 2>What's up? If I may put it in a nutshell,
<v Speaker 2>mister Merton, I should say it was all up?
<v Speaker 4>Now?
<v Speaker 2>Look here, can't selvius. I'm a busy man and I
<v Speaker 2>can't face time. I'm going into that bedroom. Pray, make
<v Speaker 2>yourself fie of herm In my absence, you can explain
<v Speaker 2>to your friends how the metha lies without the restraint
<v Speaker 2>of my presence. I shall fly over the huffman backerole
<v Speaker 2>upon my violin. In five minutes I shall return for
<v Speaker 2>your final answer. You quite grasped the alternative, do you not?
<v Speaker 2>Shall we take you? Or shall we head with stunt
<v Speaker 2>off manu?
<v Speaker 4>We'll said chet on about Let me think, if it's trouble,
<v Speaker 4>why didn't you plug him?
<v Speaker 2>Carr? I get a fool Sam anyone, but you could
<v Speaker 2>have seen it was holding a revolt. But if he's
<v Speaker 2>pressing gun poppet, Oh.
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, because you know about ust know the dam said
<v Speaker 4>too much about it, and I'm not sure he doesn't
<v Speaker 4>know all about it? Cool like his stand has a
<v Speaker 4>split on us? Oh yeah, die are doing done? At if?
<v Speaker 4>I swim for him and I won't help us much.
<v Speaker 4>We've got to make up our minds. Want to look
<v Speaker 4>to be half from hope. He's a leary cove that
<v Speaker 4>one in there. He wants watching You suppose he's listening.
<v Speaker 4>How can he be listening while he's playing that thing?
<v Speaker 2>Oh that's right? Yeah?
<v Speaker 4>Oh what is it now? Maybe somebody's behind the curtain.
<v Speaker 4>There's too many curtains in this room. I saw Tony Dunnyke.
<v Speaker 2>What frightly can I do? Too short in it? He said, Livings,
<v Speaker 2>I've him gone at all. Oh but them curtains, all
<v Speaker 2>confounded curtains. We're wasting our time and there's not too
<v Speaker 2>much of it. No, he can lag us over the stone.
<v Speaker 2>He's offered to let us slip if we only kill him.
<v Speaker 2>Where the swag is? What? Give me up?
<v Speaker 4>Cub up?
<v Speaker 2>Only parson quid? It's one or the other. He's alonely
<v Speaker 2>yeah next to we met once. She's not. We now
<v Speaker 2>need to fear of if we shot him, he could
<v Speaker 2>hardly get away in a place like this.
<v Speaker 4>Oh decided it lightly enough that the priest know whatever
<v Speaker 4>evidence he had got.
<v Speaker 2>What you were of nothing just a noise in the streets.
<v Speaker 2>Now look here, God, you got the branch. You can
<v Speaker 2>think of a Why aren't sure of you? It's slugg
<v Speaker 2>he's no use. Don't talk to you. I fooled better
<v Speaker 2>men than homes. The stone is here in my secret pocket.
<v Speaker 2>I take no chances leaving it about.
<v Speaker 4>It can be out of England tonight and cut into
<v Speaker 4>four pieces in Amsterdam before Sunday.
<v Speaker 2>See he knows nothing of Vanstadah. I thought you should Van.
<v Speaker 2>I said it was going next week.
<v Speaker 4>He was.
<v Speaker 2>But now he must get off by the next boat.
<v Speaker 4>One of us must slip around with a stone to
<v Speaker 4>Lime Street and tell him a fourth foot, and he
<v Speaker 4>must take it as it is and chance it.
<v Speaker 2>There's not a moment to lose, mister Holmes.
<v Speaker 4>We can fool him easily enough, I'll kill him the
<v Speaker 4>stones in Liverpool.
<v Speaker 2>Oh, can't found that line in music. It's get on
<v Speaker 2>my nerves. Come back here on the line of the keyhole.
<v Speaker 2>Here's the stone more. I don't know, are you, dear Kerry?
<v Speaker 2>Where could I keep it safer?
<v Speaker 4>If we could take it out of Whitehall, someone else
<v Speaker 4>would easily take it out of my lodgings.
<v Speaker 2>Out of your hand. What would you count it to
<v Speaker 2>be safe with me? Well, but that was a wax work.
<v Speaker 2>Let here a minute ago where your surprise is very
<v Speaker 2>that Stu. You are not aware, of course, that the
<v Speaker 2>second of from my bedroom leaves behind that person which
<v Speaker 2>was worrying you so much. Mister Murphy. I sensed you
<v Speaker 2>must have heard me as I slipped into the Dunne's chair.
<v Speaker 2>But las can the passing cam but on my side,
<v Speaker 2>So that was it. They gave me a chance of
<v Speaker 2>listening to your racy conversation, which would have been painfully
<v Speaker 2>constrained had you been aware of my present. Had you
<v Speaker 2>no violence, gentlemen, no violence I'd make of you. Consider
<v Speaker 2>the furniture. It must be very clear to you that
<v Speaker 2>your position is an impossible one. The police are waiting below.
<v Speaker 2>All right, they give you best forms. I believe it's
<v Speaker 2>not far from him at anything, A fair cop the
<v Speaker 2>blooming fiddle tiny shall dear me? You're right? Well let
<v Speaker 2>it play. The modern gramophone is a remarkable invention.
<v Speaker 4>Gromophone in here opposite conser, we'd be waiting to get
<v Speaker 4>you and you two, sir.
<v Speaker 2>P take your hands off like that nord cattlemre is here, sir, oh,

<v Speaker 4>and I see you have candle mere downstairs.
<v Speaker 2>What shall we make his lordship? Undt there we venture
<v Speaker 2>upon a styche lived world? Will you establish by your lordship?
<v Speaker 2>Nor cattlemare else, young hamster Holmes constables and fell all
<v Speaker 2>over the fish? How do you do? Lord canceled here?

<v Speaker 2>most insidient. Am I not right? I'm quite comfortable, as
<v Speaker 2>I answer, I have no need to stay. I'm simply

<v Speaker 8>Ah, I hear you would find yourself every man thinks
<v Speaker 8>his imitations with homes.
<v Speaker 2>But at least it char us of the weakness of
<v Speaker 2>self satisfaction. Yes, Sir, I admit I have been much perplexed,
<v Speaker 2>no doubt, especially upon one point. Possibly you could help
<v Speaker 2>me upon it.

<v Speaker 9>the day I thought you had your own all sufficient methods,
<v Speaker 9>So I am ready.
<v Speaker 2>To help up. Your lordship is most obliging. You see,
<v Speaker 2>we can no doubt flame a case against the actual
<v Speaker 2>fee when you have caught them exactly. But the question
<v Speaker 2>is how shall we proceed against the receiver? Receiver, this
<v Speaker 2>is rather premato. It is as well to have our
<v Speaker 2>plans ready. Now, what would you regard as final evidence
<v Speaker 2>against the receiver the actual possession of a stone? You
<v Speaker 2>would arrest him upon their most unto. In that case,
<v Speaker 2>my dear sir, I shall be under the painful necessity
<v Speaker 2>of advising your address. Mister Holmes, you take a great
<v Speaker 2>liberty in fifty years of a fearful life. I cannot,
<v Speaker 2>of course such a case.
<v Speaker 6>I am a busy answer, engaged upon important affairs, and
<v Speaker 6>I have no time or taste for foolish jokes. I
<v Speaker 6>mean to you, thank you, sir, that I have never
<v Speaker 6>been a believer in your powers, and that I have
<v Speaker 6>always been of the opinion that that I was fast
<v Speaker 6>safer in the handles of a regular police spot.
<v Speaker 2>Your conduct confirms all of my conclusions. The honsher do
<v Speaker 2>this move good evening for one moment, Sir. Actually, to
<v Speaker 2>go after the Measarin Stern would be a more serious
<v Speaker 2>of his than to be fine in temporary possession of
<v Speaker 2>sub This is intolerable. Let me pass such a hand
<v Speaker 2>in the right hand pocket of your advocate. What do
<v Speaker 2>you mean, come, come, do what I ask? I?
<v Speaker 8>I well, if it will make an end of the
<v Speaker 8>sarade cat the mass in stone, great effort.
<v Speaker 2>Too bad of me, Lord Cantledere. Too bad. My old
<v Speaker 2>friends here will tell you that I have an impish
<v Speaker 2>habit of practical jokey. It's also that I can ever
<v Speaker 2>resist a dramatic situation. I took the liberty, the very
<v Speaker 2>great liberty, I admit of putting the stone into your
<v Speaker 2>pockets at the beginning of our interview, Sir, I I
<v Speaker 2>am too wildered, but yes, it is indeed the mess
<v Speaker 2>in stone. Mister, mister Holmes. We are greatly your debtors.
<v Speaker 2>Your sense of humor may be here, as you admit,
<v Speaker 2>somewhat perverted.
<v Speaker 6>And this exhibition remarkably unfinally, remarkably, but at least I
<v Speaker 6>even draw any reflection I have made upon your amazing
<v Speaker 6>professional powers.
<v Speaker 2>How the details can wait, no doubt, so cantle me
<v Speaker 2>your pleasure in telling of this successful result in the
<v Speaker 2>exalted circle to which you returned will be some small
<v Speaker 2>atonement for my practical joke.
<v Speaker 9>And now, of course you have your overcoat. Yes, yes,
<v Speaker 9>and I apologize again the souls once more. Then good evening,
<v Speaker 9>and you, sir, well, he's.
<v Speaker 2>An excellent and loyal person. But another the old regime.
<v Speaker 2>And now, my dear, wasn't pray taster Belle? And as
<v Speaker 2>of old missus, Hudson shall lay dinner or two.
