"And
is
that
all?"
"Just
one
more
item
in
another
morning
paper,
but
it's
a
suggestive
one."
"And
it
is—"
"That
Miss
Flora
Millar,
the
woman
who
caused
the
disturbance,
has
been
arrested.
It
seems
she
was
once
a
dancer
at
the
Allegro
and
has
known
the
bridegroom
for
years.
There
are
no
more
details,
and
the
case
is
now
in
your
hands—at
least
as
far
as
it
has
been
reported
in
the
press."
"And
it
seems
to
be
a
very
interesting
case.
I
wouldn't
have
missed
it
for
anything.
But
there's
a
ring
at
the
bell,
Watson,
and
since
the
clock
shows
it's
just
after
four,
I
suspect
this
will
be
our
noble
client.
Don't
think
of
leaving,
Watson,
as
I
prefer
having
a
witness,
if
only
to
check
my
own
memory."
"Lord
Robert
St.
Simon,"
announced
our
page-boy,
opening
the
door.
A
gentleman
entered,
with
a
pleasant,
cultured
face,
a
high
nose
and
pale
complexion,
with
a
hint
of
petulance
in
his
mouth,
and
the
steady,
well-opened
eyes
of
a
man
accustomed
to
command
and
be
obeyed.
His
manner
was
brisk,
yet
his
overall
appearance
suggested
age,
with
a
slight
stoop
and
bent
knees
as
he
walked.
His
hair,
grizzled
at
the
edges
and
thin
on
top,
was
revealed
as
he
removed
his
curly-brimmed
hat.
His
attire
was
meticulously
stylish,
with
a
high
collar,
black
frock-coat,
white
waistcoat,
yellow
gloves,
patent-leather
shoes,
and
light-colored
gaiters.
He
entered
the
room
slowly,
turning
his
head
from
side
to
side,
swinging
the
cord
of
his
golden
eyeglasses
in
his
right
hand.
"Good
day,
Lord
St.
Simon,"
said
Holmes,
standing
and
bowing.
"Please,
take
the
basket-chair.
This
is
my
friend
and
colleague,
Dr.
Watson.
Come
closer
to
the
fire,
and
we
will
discuss
this
matter."
"A
very
painful
matter
for
me,
as
you
can
imagine,
Mr.
Holmes.
I
am
deeply
affected.
I
understand
you've
handled
several
delicate
cases
of
this
kind,
though
I
assume
they
were
not
from
the
same
social
class."
