"You
are
right,"
she
said.
"I
left
home
before
six,
reached
Leatherhead,
and
took
the
first
train
to
Waterloo.
I
cannot
take
this
anymore.
I
will
go
mad.
I
have
no
one
to
help
me.
I
heard
about
you,
Mr.
Holmes,
from
Mrs.
Farintosh.
She
gave
me
your
address.
Can
you
help
me?
I
will
pay
you
later
when
I
am
married
and
have
money."
Holmes
went
to
his
desk
and
took
out
a
small
book.
"Farintosh,"
he
said.
"I
remember
the
case.
It
was
about
an
opal
tiara.
Watson,
this
was
before
you.
Madam,
I
will
help
you
like
I
helped
your
friend.
My
work
is
my
reward.
You
can
pay
for
any
costs
later.
Now,
please
tell
us
everything."
"My
fears
are
unclear,"
she
said.
"I
have
small
reasons,
but
they
seem
silly
to
others.
The
person
I
trust
thinks
I
am
just
nervous.
But
I
heard
you
can
see
the
truth.
Please
guide
me."
"I
am
listening,
madam,"
Holmes
said.
"My
name
is
Helen
Stoner.
I
live
with
my
stepfather.
He
is
the
last
of
the
Roylott
family
from
Stoke
Moran,
in
Surrey."
Holmes
nodded.
"I
know
the
name,"
he
said.
"The
family
was
very
rich
long
ago.
They
had
land
in
Berkshire
and
Hampshire.
But
then,
four
heirs
wasted
the
money.
A
gambler
finished
the
ruin.
Only
a
few
acres
and
an
old
house
were
left.
The
last
squire
lived
there
poor.
My
stepfather
was
his
son.
He
got
money
from
a
relative.
He
became
a
doctor
and
went
to
Calcutta.
He
did
well
there.
But
he
got
angry
and
killed
his
butler.
He
went
to
prison
and
then
came
back
to
England
angry
and
sad."
