Capítulo 4, Página 15
"I
can't
understand
his
taste,"
I
said,
"if
he
didn't
want
to
marry
Miss
Turner,
who
is
very
charming."
"There's
a
sad
story
behind
that.
He
is
madly
in
love
with
her,
but
two
years
ago,
when
he
was
young
and
before
he
knew
her
well,
he
married
a
barmaid
in
Bristol.
No
one
knows
about
it,
but
you
can
imagine
how
hard
it
is
for
him.
He
wants
to
marry
Miss
Turner
but
can't.
His
father
pushed
him
to
propose
to
her,
but
he
couldn't.
He
had
no
money,
and
his
father
would
have
been
angry
if
he
knew
the
truth.
He
spent
the
last
three
days
with
his
barmaid
wife
in
Bristol,
and
his
father
didn't
know.
Remember
that,
it's
important.
But
good
news
came
from
bad.
The
barmaid
found
out
he
was
in
trouble
and
left
him.
She
wrote
to
say
she
already
had
a
husband.
So,
there
is
no
tie
between
them.
I
think
this
news
has
comforted
young
McCarthy."
"But
if
he
is
innocent,
who
did
it?"
"Ah!
Who?
Pay
attention
to
two
points.
The
murdered
man
had
a
meeting
with
someone
at
the
pool.
It
wasn't
his
son,
as
his
son
was
away,
and
he
didn't
know
when
he
would
return.
Second,
the
murdered
man
shouted
'Cooee!'
before
he
saw
his
son.
These
are
the
key
points.
Now,
let's
talk
about
George
Meredith
and
leave
other
things
for
tomorrow."
As
Holmes
predicted,
there
was
no
rain,
and
the
morning
was
bright
and
clear.
At
nine,
Lestrade
came
with
the
carriage,
and
we
went
to
Hatherley
Farm
and
Boscombe
Pool.
"There
is
serious
news
today,"
Lestrade
said.
"Mr.
Turner
is
very
ill,
and
they
fear
for
his
life."
"An
old
man,
I
suppose?"
said
Holmes.
"About
sixty,
but
his
health
has
been
poor
because
of
his
life
abroad.
This
case
has
affected
him
badly.
He
was
a
good
friend
of
McCarthy
and
helped
him
a
lot.
I
learned
he
gave
Hatherley
Farm
rent-free."
