The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle
Capítulo 7, Página 5
"I
must
be
very
slow,
but
I
can't
understand
you.
How
did
you
know
he
was
smart?"
Holmes
put
the
hat
on
his
head.
It
went
down
over
his
forehead.
"It's
about
head
size,"
he
said.
"A
big
head
means
a
big
brain."
"And
his
money
problems?"
"This
hat
is
three
years
old.
The
flat
brims
curled
at
the
edge
were
in
style
then.
It
is
a
hat
of
the
best
quality.
Look
at
the
silk
band
and
the
good
lining.
If
this
man
could
buy
such
an
expensive
hat
three
years
ago
and
has
not
bought
one
since,
he
has
surely
gone
down
in
the
world."
"Well,
that
is
clear.
But
what
about
foresight
and
moral
decline?"
Sherlock
Holmes
laughed.
"Here
is
the
foresight,"
he
said,
pointing
to
the
little
disc
and
loop
on
the
hat.
"They
are
not
sold
with
hats.
If
this
man
ordered
one,
it
shows
some
foresight,
as
he
took
care
against
the
wind.
But
the
elastic
is
broken,
and
he
did
not
replace
it,
showing
he
has
less
foresight
now.
He
tried
to
hide
stains
with
ink,
which
means
he
still
has
some
self-respect."
"Your
reasoning
is
certainly
believable."
"The
other
points
are
that
he
is
middle-aged,
his
hair
is
grizzled,
it
was
recently
cut,
and
he
uses
lime-cream.
These
come
from
looking
closely
at
the
lower
part
of
the
lining.
The
lens
shows
many
hair
ends,
cut
by
a
barber.
They
are
sticky,
and
there
is
a
lime-cream
smell.
The
dust
is
not
from
the
street
but
is
brown,
from
the
house,
showing
it
was
mostly
indoors.
The
moisture
marks
inside
show
he
sweats
a
lot,
so
he
is
not
in
good
shape."
