The Five Orange Pips
Capítulo 5, Página 17
"What
group?"
"Have
you
never,"
said
Holmes,
leaning
in,
"heard
of
the
Ku
Klux
Klan?"
"I
never
have."
Holmes
looked
in
the
book.
"Here
it
is,"
he
said.
"'Ku
Klux
Klan.
The
name
sounds
like
a
rifle.
This
secret
group
started
after
the
Civil
War.
It
was
in
the
Southern
states.
It
had
branches
in
Tennessee,
Louisiana,
the
Carolinas,
Georgia,
and
Florida.
It
used
fear
for
politics.
It
scared
black
voters
and
killed
people
who
disagreed.
They
sent
warnings
like
oak
leaves
or
seeds.
People
ran
away
or
faced
death.
The
group
was
strong
and
secret.
Few
escaped
them.
The
U.S.
government
tried
to
stop
them.
The
group
ended
in
1869
but
sometimes
appeared
again.'"
"Look,"
said
Holmes.
He
put
down
the
book.
"Openshaw
left
America
with
papers.
The
society
broke
up
at
that
time.
This
is
cause
and
effect.
His
family
is
in
danger.
The
papers
are
important.
Many
people
will
not
sleep
well
until
they
get
them
back."
"And
the
page
we
saw—"
"It
is
what
we
expected.
It
said,
'sent
the
pips
to
A,
B,
and
C.'
This
was
a
warning.
A
and
B
left
the
country.
C
was
visited.
It
was
bad
for
C.
Doctor,
young
Openshaw
must
do
what
I
said.
We
can
do
nothing
more
tonight.
Give
me
my
violin.
Let's
forget
the
bad
weather
and
bad
people
for
a
while."
