"Well,
I
did
what
she
told
me,
Mr.
Holmes,
and
I
carried
the
bird
all
the
way
to
Kilburn.
I
told
my
friend
what
I
had
done,
because
he
was
someone
easy
to
talk
to
about
such
things.
He
laughed
until
he
almost
choked,
and
then
we
got
a
knife
and
opened
the
goose.
My
heart
sank
because
there
was
no
sign
of
the
stone,
and
I
knew
something
had
gone
horribly
wrong.
I
left
the
bird,
rushed
back
to
my
sister’s,
and
hurried
into
the
backyard.
There
were
no
birds
to
be
seen."
"‘Where
are
they
all,
Maggie?’
I
shouted."
"‘Gone
to
the
dealer’s,
Jem.’"
"‘Which
dealer?’"
"‘Breckinridge,
of
Covent
Garden.’"
"‘But
was
there
another
with
a
barred
tail?’
I
asked,
‘like
the
one
I
picked?’"
"‘Yes,
Jem;
there
were
two
with
barred
tails,
and
I
could
never
tell
them
apart.’"
"Then
I
understood
everything,
and
I
ran
as
fast
as
I
could
to
this
man
Breckinridge,
but
he
had
sold
all
the
birds
at
once
and
wouldn’t
tell
me
where
they
went.
You
heard
him
yourself
tonight.
He
has
always
answered
me
like
that.
My
sister
thinks
I’m
losing
my
mind.
Sometimes
I
think
so
too.
And
now—and
now
I’ve
become
a
branded
thief,
without
ever
touching
the
wealth
I
gave
up
my
honor
for.
God
help
me!
God
help
me!”
He
broke
into
sobs,
burying
his
face
in
his
hands.
