48024    'Well, sir, I thought no good could come of it.

48025    But now you have been kind to us, and I feel as if it would be treating you unfairly not to tell you all that I know about the matter.'

48026    'Very good, Barrymore, you can go.'

48027    When the butler had left us, Sir Henry turned to me.

48028    'Well, Watson, what do you think of this new light?'

48029    'It seems to leave the darkness rather blacker than before.'

48030    'So I think.

48031    But if we can only trace L.L. it should clear up the whole business.

48032    We have gained that much.

48033    We know that there is someone who has the facts if we can only find her.

48034    What do you think we should do?'

48035    'Let Holmes know all about it at once.

48036    It will give him the clue for which he has been seeking.

48037    I am much mistaken if it does not bring him down.'

48038    I went at once to my room and drew up my report of the morning's conversation for Holmes.
