Las aventuras de Sherlock Holmes
A Scandal in Bohemia
Capítulo 1, Página 4
I
looked
carefully
at
the
writing
and
the
paper.
“The
writer
is
likely
wealthy,”
I
said,
trying
to
think
like
Holmes.
“This
paper
costs
a
lot.
It
is
strong
and
stiff.”
"Peculiar—that
is
the
right
word,"
said
Holmes.
"This
paper
is
not
English.
Hold
it
up
to
the
light."
I
did,
and
I
saw
a
big
"E"
with
a
small
"g,"
a
"P,"
and
a
big
"G"
with
a
small
"t"
in
the
paper.
"What
do
you
think
of
that?"
asked
Holmes.
"The
maker's
name,
maybe;
or
his
initials."
"Not
at
all.
The
'G'
with
the
small
't'
means
'Gesellschaft,'
which
is
German
for
'Company.'
It
is
like
our
'Co.'
'P'
stands
for
'Papier.'
Now
for
the
'Eg.'
Let's
look
in
our
Continental
Gazetteer."
He
took
a
big
brown
book
from
his
shelf.
"Eglow,
Eglonitz—here
we
are,
Egria.
It
is
in
a
German-speaking
place—in
Bohemia,
near
Carlsbad.
'Known
for
Wallenstein's
death
and
its
glass
factories
and
paper
mills.'
Ha,
ha,
what
do
you
make
of
that?"
His
eyes
shone,
and
he
blew
a
big
blue
smoke
cloud
from
his
cigarette.
"The
paper
was
made
in
Bohemia,"
I
said.
