The Stolen Boot
We arrived at the Northumberland Hotel at ten minutes to two. Sir Henry was talking to the hotel manager.
Two boots in two days, Sir Henry said loudly. Two boots have disappeared from my room-one new boot and one old boot.'
We shall look everywhere,sir'said the manager.'We shall find your stolen boots.
Sir Henry was silent while we ate lunch. He was angry about his stolen boots.
'Tell me,Mr Holmes,' said Dr Mortimer.'Is it safe for Sir Henry to go to Baskerville Hall?
'It is safer than staying in London,' said Holmes.'Do you know that a man followed you this morning?
'Followed us!said Dr Mortimer in surprise.'Who followed us?
