“His
height
I
know
that
you
might
roughly
judge
from
the
length
of
his
stride.
His
boots,
too,
might
be
told
from
their
traces.”
“Yes,
they
were
peculiar
boots.”
“But
his
lameness?”
“The
impression
of
his
right
foot
was
always
less
distinct
than
his
left.
He
put
less
weight
upon
it.
Why?
Because
he
limped—he
was
lame.”
“But
his
left-handedness.”
“You
were
yourself
struck
by
the
nature
of
the
injury
as
recorded
by
the
surgeon
at
the
inquest.
The
blow
was
struck
from
immediately
behind,
and
yet
was
upon
the
left
side.
Now,
how
can
that
be
unless
it
were
by
a
left-handed
man?
He
had
stood
behind
that
tree
during
the
interview
between
the
father
and
son.
He
had
even
smoked
there.
I
found
the
ash
of
a
cigar,
which
my
special
knowledge
of
tobacco
ashes
enables
me
to
pronounce
as
an
Indian
cigar.
I
have,
as
you
know,
devoted
some
attention
to
this,
and
written
a
little
monograph
on
the
ashes
of
140
different
varieties
of
pipe,
cigar,
and
cigarette
tobacco.
Having
found
the
ash,
I
then
looked
round
and
discovered
the
stump
among
the
moss
where
he
had
tossed
it.
It
was
an
Indian
cigar,
of
the
variety
which
are
rolled
in
Rotterdam.”
“And
the
cigar-holder?”
“I
could
see
that
the
end
had
not
been
in
his
mouth.
Therefore
he
used
a
holder.
The
tip
had
been
cut
off,
not
bitten
off,
but
the
cut
was
not
a
clean
one,
so
I
deduced
a
blunt
pen-knife.”
