Las aventuras de Sherlock Holmes
The Red-Headed League
Capítulo 2, Página 6
“The
first
thing
that
put
us
out
was
that
advertisement.
Spaulding,
he
came
down
into
the
office
just
this
day
eight
weeks,
with
this
very
paper
in
his
hand,
and
he
says:”
“‘I
wish
to
the
Lord,
Mr.
Wilson,
that
I
was
a
red-headed
man.’”
“‘Why
that?’
I
asks.”
“‘Why,’
says
he,
‘here’s
another
vacancy
on
the
League
of
the
Red-headed
Men.
It’s
worth
quite
a
little
fortune
to
any
man
who
gets
it,
and
I
understand
that
there
are
more
vacancies
than
there
are
men,
so
that
the
trustees
are
at
their
wits’
end
what
to
do
with
the
money.
If
my
hair
would
only
change
colour,
here’s
a
nice
little
crib
all
ready
for
me
to
step
into.’”
“‘Why,
what
is
it,
then?’
I
asked.
You
see,
Mr.
Holmes,
I
am
a
very
stay-at-home
man,
and
as
my
business
came
to
me
instead
of
my
having
to
go
to
it,
I
was
often
weeks
on
end
without
putting
my
foot
over
the
door-mat.
In
that
way
I
didn’t
know
much
of
what
was
going
on
outside,
and
I
was
always
glad
of
a
bit
of
news.”
“‘Have
you
never
heard
of
the
League
of
the
Red-headed
Men?’
he
asked
with
his
eyes
open.”
“‘Never.’”
“‘Why,
I
wonder
at
that,
for
you
are
eligible
yourself
for
one
of
the
vacancies.’”
