“Good.
Now,
Mr.
Wilson?”
"Well,
Mr.
Sherlock
Holmes,
it
is
just
like
I
said,"
Jabez
Wilson
said,
wiping
his
forehead.
"I
have
a
small
pawn
shop
at
Coburg
Square,
near
the
City.
It's
not
very
big,
and
in
recent
years,
it
only
makes
enough
for
me
to
live.
I
used
to
have
two
assistants,
but
now
I
have
only
one.
I
can
pay
him
because
he
works
for
half
wages
to
learn
the
business."
"What
is
the
name
of
this
helpful
young
man?"
asked
Sherlock
Holmes.
"His
name
is
Vincent
Spaulding,
and
he
is
not
so
young.
It's
hard
to
tell
his
age.
I
wouldn't
want
a
smarter
assistant,
Mr.
Holmes.
I
know
he
could
get
a
better
job
and
earn
more.
But
if
he
is
happy,
why
should
I
change
his
mind?"
"Why,
indeed?
You
are
lucky
to
have
an
employee
who
works
for
less.
It's
not
common
for
employers
these
days.
Your
assistant
is
as
interesting
as
your
advertisement."
"Oh,
he
has
his
faults,"
said
Mr.
Wilson.
"He
loves
photography
too
much.
He
takes
pictures
when
he
should
be
working,
then
goes
to
the
cellar
to
develop
them.
That's
his
main
fault,
but
he
is
a
good
worker.
He
has
no
bad
habits."
"He
still
works
with
you,
I
guess?"
"Yes,
sir.
He
and
a
girl
of
fourteen
who
cooks
and
cleans.
That's
all
I
have
in
the
house,
as
I
am
a
widower
and
have
no
family.
We
live
quietly,
sir,
the
three
of
us.
We
keep
a
roof
over
our
heads
and
pay
our
debts,
if
nothing
more."
