Far away on the path we saw sir henry looking back, his face white in the moonlight, his hands raised in horror, glaring helplessly at the frightful thing which was hunting him down. but that cry of pain from the hound had blown all our fears to the winds. if he was vulnerable he was mortal, and if we could wound him we could kill him. never have i seen a man run as holmes ran that night.

"recognising, as i do, that you are the second highest expert in europe" "indeed, sir! may i inquire who has the honour to be the first?" asked holmes, with some asperity. "to the man of precised, scientific mind the work of monsieur bertillon must always appeal strongly." "then had you not better consult him?"

Well, the traveling teachers do come through every few months," said the baron. "yes, sir, i know, sir, and they're useless, sir. they teach facts, not understanding. it's like teaching people about forests by showing them a saw. i want a proper school, sir, to teach reading and writing, and most of all thinking, sir, so people can find what they're good at, because someone doing what they really like is always an asset to any country, and too often people never find out until it's too late.

Deeply, he felt the love for the run-away in his heart, like a wound, and he felt at the same time that this wound had not been given to him in order to turn the knife in it, that it had to become a blossom and had to shine. that this wound did not blossom yet, did not shine yet, at this hour, made him sad. instead of the desired goal, which had drawn him here following the runaway son, there was now emptiness.
