'good,' said Holmes. 'Now, Sir Henry, tell me about the other boot which has been stolen.'
'It is one of an old pair of boots,' said Sir Henry.
'How strange,' said Holmes. 'And, tell me Sir Henry, if you die, who will become the owner of Baskerville Hall?'
'I don't know,' replied Sir Henry. 'Sir Charles had two brothers - my father, who went to Canada, and a younger brother called Roger. But Roger never married and he died in South America. I have no living relatives. I don't know who will get all my money if I die today.'
'And, may I ask, how much money do you have?'
'Certainly, Mr Holmes. Sir Charles left me a fortune of one million pounds,' said Sir Henry.
'Many men will murder their best friend for a million pounds,' said Holmes.
