Inspector Lestrade arrived from London at five o'clock. We met him at Grimpen Station. He was a short man, with bright eyes. He and Sherlock Holmes were good friends. He and Holmes talked together as drove to Baskerville Hall.
At half past seven, when Sir Henry left the Hall, we were ready.
Sir Henry walked along the path across the Great Grimpen Mire, towards Merripit House. The stapletons had asked him to come to dinner at eight o'clock.
The tree of us followed him - Lestrade, Holmes and I.
Each of us carried a revolver. We saw Sir Henry go into Merripit House. We waited below High Tore' about two hundred yards house.
