Las aventuras de Sherlock Holmes
A Case of Identity
Capítulo 3, Página 4
I
had
expected
to
see
Sherlock
Holmes
impatient
under
this
rambling
and
inconsequential
narrative,
but,
on
the
contrary,
he
had
listened
with
the
greatest
concentration
of
attention.
“Your
own
little
income,”
he
asked,
“does
it
come
out
of
the
business?”
“Oh,
no,
sir.
It
is
quite
separate
and
was
left
me
by
my
uncle
Ned
in
Auckland.
It
is
in
New
Zealand
stock,
paying
4½
per
cent.
Two
thousand
five
hundred
pounds
was
the
amount,
but
I
can
only
touch
the
interest.”
“You
interest
me
extremely,”
said
Holmes.
“And
since
you
draw
so
large
a
sum
as
a
hundred
a
year,
with
what
you
earn
into
the
bargain,
you
no
doubt
travel
a
little
and
indulge
yourself
in
every
way.
I
believe
that
a
single
lady
can
get
on
very
nicely
upon
an
income
of
about
£
60.”
“I
could
do
with
much
less
than
that,
Mr.
Holmes,
but
you
understand
that
as
long
as
I
live
at
home
I
don’t
wish
to
be
a
burden
to
them,
and
so
they
have
the
use
of
the
money
just
while
I
am
staying
with
them.
Of
course,
that
is
only
just
for
the
time.
Mr.
Windibank
draws
my
interest
every
quarter
and
pays
it
over
to
mother,
and
I
find
that
I
can
do
pretty
well
with
what
I
earn
at
typewriting.
It
brings
me
twopence
a
sheet,
and
I
can
often
do
from
fifteen
to
twenty
sheets
in
a
day.”
“You
have
made
your
position
very
clear
to
me,”
said
Holmes.
“This
is
my
friend,
Dr.
Watson,
before
whom
you
can
speak
as
freely
as
before
myself.
Kindly
tell
us
now
all
about
your
connection
with
Mr.
Hosmer
Angel.”
A
flush
stole
over
Miss
Sutherland’s
face,
and
she
picked
nervously
at
the
fringe
of
her
jacket.
“I
met
him
first
at
the
gasfitters’
ball,”
she
said.
“They
used
to
send
father
tickets
when
he
was
alive,
and
then
afterwards
they
remembered
us,
and
sent
them
to
mother.
Mr.
Windibank
did
not
wish
us
to
go.
He
never
did
wish
us
to
go
anywhere.
He
would
get
quite
mad
if
I
wanted
so
much
as
to
join
a
Sunday-school
treat.
But
this
time
I
was
set
on
going,
and
I
would
go;
for
what
right
had
he
to
prevent?
He
said
the
folk
were
not
fit
for
us
to
know,
when
all
father’s
friends
were
to
be
there.
And
he
said
that
I
had
nothing
fit
to
wear,
when
I
had
my
purple
plush
that
I
had
never
so
much
as
taken
out
of
the
drawer.
At
last,
when
nothing
else
would
do,
he
went
off
to
France
upon
the
business
of
the
firm,
but
we
went,
mother
and
I,
with
Mr.
Hardy,
who
used
to
be
our
foreman,
and
it
was
there
I
met
Mr.
Hosmer
Angel.”
“I
suppose,”
said
Holmes,
“that
when
Mr.
Windibank
came
back
from
France
he
was
very
annoyed
at
your
having
gone
to
the
ball.”
