The stolen boot
We arrived at the Northumberland hotel at ten minutes to two. Sir Henry Baskerville was taking to the hotel manager. Two boots in two day, Sir Henry said the manager. We shall’ find your stolen boots. Sir Henry was silent while we ate lunch.
He was angry about his stolens boots.
Tell me Mr. Holmes said Dr. Mortimer.
Is it safe for sir Henry to go Baskerville hall.
It is safer than staying in London, said holmer. Do you know that a man followed you this morning?
Followed us! Said Dr Mortimer in surprise. Who followed us?
A man with a thick black beard, said holmer. Do you know a man black beard?
Yes I do. Replied Dr. Mortimer. The servant at Baskerville hall has a thick black beard. His name is Barrymore. I can't think why he is following us. but i am sure sir Henry is in danger. It is better if sir Henry stays here in London.
No you are wrong said holmer. There are millions of people in London. We cannot watch them all. There are not at many people on Dartmoor. Everyone will notice someone who is a stranger.
But this man may not be a stranger' said Dr. Mortimer I agree said Holmes that is why sir Henry must not stay at Baskerville hall alone.
I myself will be busy in London, but my good friend Dr Watson will go with you to Dartmoor.
Oh...yes, of course; I said, I will certainly go to Dartmoor.
Thank you. Dr Watson; said sir Henry, you will be very welcome at Baskerville Hall.
Good, said Holmes Now Sir Henry Tell me about the Ather boot which has been stolen.
It is one of an old pair of boots said sir Henry.
How Stranger, said Holmer. 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 brother - my father, who went to Canada, and a 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.
certianly Mr. Holmer. 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.
