The Adventure of the Beryl Coronet
Capítulo 11, Página 2
"You
have
come
to
tell
me
your
story,
haven't
you?"
he
said.
"You
are
tired
from
your
rush.
Please
wait
until
you
feel
better,
and
then
I
will
be
happy
to
look
into
any
problem
you
may
have."
The
man
sat
for
a
minute,
his
chest
heaving,
fighting
his
emotions.
Then
he
wiped
his
brow
with
a
handkerchief,
set
his
lips
tight,
and
faced
us.
"You
must
think
I'm
mad,"
he
said.
"I
see
you've
had
some
great
trouble,"
Holmes
replied.
"God
knows
I
have!
A
trouble
so
sudden
and
terrible
that
it
could
drive
me
mad.
I
could
face
public
disgrace,
though
I've
always
had
a
spotless
character.
Private
troubles
are
common
for
everyone,
but
having
both
at
once,
and
in
such
a
terrible
form,
has
shaken
my
soul.
And
it's
not
just
me.
The
noblest
people
in
the
land
may
suffer
unless
we
find
a
way
out
of
this
horrible
situation."
"Please
calm
yourself,
sir,"
said
Holmes,
"and
tell
me
clearly
who
you
are
and
what
has
happened
to
you."
"My
name,"
our
visitor
answered,
"is
probably
familiar
to
you.
I
am
Alexander
Holder,
from
the
banking
firm
of
Holder
&
Stevenson,
on
Threadneedle
Street."
The
name
was
indeed
well-known
to
us
as
belonging
to
the
senior
partner
in
the
second-largest
private
bank
in
the
City
of
London.
What
could
have
happened
to
bring
such
a
prominent
citizen
to
this
sad
state?
We
waited,
full
of
curiosity,
until
he
gathered
himself
to
tell
his
story.
