The Return

$herlnck

$irArthurC{rnan Doyle

Lestrade and I woke up at half past ten' Holmes was

waiting for us. He told me to bring my gun and I saw

him pick up his favourite strong walking stick before

we left the house.

We quickly drove to Chiswick, and Holmes took us

to a large house in a dark street' I thought that the

people inside must have already gone to bed because

the house was so dark and quiet''I'm glad it's not raining,' said Holmes quietly' 'We

may have to wait a long time' We mustn't smoke and

we must be very quiet, but I hope we are going to

discover something tonight''

We waited for five minutes but we didn't have to

wait much longer' The garden gate suddenly opened

and a man ran quickly down the garden path towards

the house. lt was so dark and he moved so quickly that

it was impossible to see his face' He disappeared into

the darkness and we waited in silence'

The next thing we heard was the sound of a window

opening very slowly, then we saw a small light inside

the front room of the house''Let's go to the open window, then we can catch him

as he comes out, ' said Lesl ' rade'

But betbre we could move, the man had come

outside again. In the light we could see that he had

something white under his arm' He looked round to

see if anyone was watching him' Then there was a

sudden crash as he broke the thing against the wall' He

was so busy that he didn't see the three of us coming

towards him. Holmes jumped on his back and he fell to

the ground heavily. Lestrade and I quickly ran to help

Holmes. I had my gun ready and soon it was

impossible for the man to escape'
