I have had great success, Watson, he said ,as I gave him a cup of tea.
What, Holmes! Have you solved the mystery already? I asked in surprise.
No. But I have discovered something very interesting. I have just been to the offices of The Tunes newspaper. I looked through the old copies of the newspaper and I discovered that Major Sholto died on 28th April 1882.
