"I
really
don't
know."
"It's
to
keep
people
out
who
shouldn't
be
there.
Do
you
understand?"
He
was
still
smiling
kindly.
"If
I
had
known—"
"Well,
now
you
know.
If
you
ever
step
over
that
threshold
again,"
he
said,
his
smile
turning
into
a
furious
grin
as
he
looked
at
me
like
a
demon,
"I'll
throw
you
to
the
mastiff."
"I
was
so
scared
that
I
don't
remember
what
I
did
next.
I
think
I
ran
past
him
into
my
room.
I
remember
nothing
until
I
found
myself
on
my
bed,
shaking
all
over.
Then
I
thought
of
you,
Mr.
Holmes.
I
couldn't
stay
there
without
advice.
I
was
afraid
of
the
house,
the
man,
the
woman,
the
servants,
even
the
child.
They
all
seemed
horrible.
If
only
I
could
get
you
to
come,
everything
would
be
fine.
I
could
have
run
away,
but
my
curiosity
was
as
strong
as
my
fear.
I
decided
to
send
you
a
telegram.
I
put
on
my
hat
and
cloak,
went
to
the
office
half
a
mile
away,
and
returned
feeling
better.
As
I
got
to
the
door,
I
worried
the
dog
might
be
loose,
but
I
remembered
Toller
was
too
drunk
to
do
anything
that
night,
and
he
was
the
only
one
who
could
control
the
creature.
I
got
in
safely
and
stayed
awake
half
the
night,
happy
at
the
thought
of
seeing
you.
I
got
permission
to
come
to
Winchester
this
morning,
but
I
must
be
back
before
three
o'clock
because
Mr.
and
Mrs.
Rucastle
are
going
out
and
I
have
to
look
after
the
child.
Now
I've
told
you
all
my
adventures,
Mr.
Holmes,
and
I
would
be
very
glad
if
you
could
tell
me
what
it
all
means,
and
what
I
should
do."
Holmes
and
I
listened,
completely
absorbed
by
this
strange
story.
My
friend
stood
up
and
walked
around
the
room,
his
hands
in
his
pockets,
looking
very
serious.
"Is
Toller
still
drunk?"
he
asked.
"Yes.
I
heard
his
wife
tell
Mrs.
Rucastle
she
couldn't
do
anything
with
him."
