Capítulo 12, Página 26
"Miss
Alice
was
never
happy
at
home
after
her
father
married
again.
She
had
no
say
in
anything.
It
got
worse
after
she
met
Mr.
Fowler.
Miss
Alice
had
rights
by
will,
but
she
was
quiet
and
left
everything
to
Mr.
Rucastle.
He
felt
safe
with
her,
but
when
she
might
marry,
her
father
wanted
to
stop
it.
He
wanted
her
to
sign
a
paper
to
use
her
money.
When
she
refused,
he
kept
bothering
her
until
she
got
very
sick.
She
was
near
death
for
six
weeks.
She
got
better,
but
she
was
weak
and
had
her
hair
cut
off.
Her
young
man
stayed
true
to
her."
"Ah,"
said
Holmes,
"what
you
told
us
clears
things
up.
I
can
figure
out
the
rest.
Mr.
Rucastle
then
started
this
imprisonment?"
"Yes,
sir."
"And
brought
Miss
Hunter
from
London
to
stop
Mr.
Fowler."
"Yes,
sir."
"But
Mr.
Fowler
was
determined,
like
a
good
sailor.
He
stayed
near
the
house
and
convinced
you
that
your
interests
were
the
same
as
his."
"Mr.
Fowler
was
kind
and
generous,"
said
Mrs.
Toller
calmly.
"And
he
made
sure
your
husband
had
enough
to
drink,
and
a
ladder
was
ready
when
your
master
left."
