"
Queer
spot
to
choose
,
is
it
not
?
"
said
he
as
if
in
answer
to
my
thought
.
"
And
yet
we
manage
to
make
ourselves
fairly
happy
,
do
we
not
,
Beryl
?
"
742
"
Quite
happy
,
"
said
she
,
but
there
was
no
ring
of
conviction
in
her
words
.

"
I
had
a
school
,
"
said
Stapleton
.
"
It
was
in
the
north
country
.
The
work
to
a
man
of
my
temperament
was
mechanical
and
uninteresting
,
but
the
privilege
of
living
with
youth
,
of
helping
to
mould
those
young
minds
,
and
of
impressing
them
with
one
's
own
character
and
ideals
,
was
very
dear
to
me
.
However
,
the
fates
were
against
us
.
A
serious
epidemic
broke
out
in
the
school
and
three
of
the
boys
died
.
It
never
recovered
from
the
blow
,
and
much
of
my
capital
was
irretrievably
swallowed
up
.

And
yet
,
if
it
were
not
for
the
loss
of
the
charming
companionship
of
the
boys
,
I
could
rejoice
over
my
own
misfortune
,
for
,
with
my
strong
tastes
for
botany
and
zoology
,
I
find
an
unlimited
field
of
work
here
,
and
my
sister
is
as
devoted
to
Nature
as
I
am
.
All
this
,
Dr.
Watson
,
has
been
brought
upon
your
head
by
your
expression
as
you
surveyed
the
moor
out
of
our
window
.
"
745
"
It
certainly
did
cross
my
mind
that
it
might
be
a
little
dull
--
less
for
you
,
perhaps
,
than
for
your
sister
.
"
746
"
No
,
no
,
I
am
never
dull
,
"
said
she
,
quickly
.
747
"
We
have
books
,
we
have
our
studies
,
and
we
have
interesting
neighbours
.
Dr.
Mortimer
is
a
most
learned
man
in
his
own
line
.
Poor
Sir
Charles
was
also
an
admirable
companion
.
We
knew
him
well
,
and
miss
him
more
than
I
can
tell
.
Do
you
think
that
I
should
intrude
if
I
were
to
call
this
afternoon
and
make
the
acquaintance
of
Sir
Henry
?

"
I
am
sure
that
he
would
be
delighted
.
"
749
"
Then
perhaps
you
would
mention
that
I
propose
to
do
so
.
We
may
in
our
humble
way
do
something
to
make
things
more
easy
for
him
until
he
becomes
accustomed
to
his
new
surroundings
.
Will
you
come
upstairs
,
Dr.
Watson
,
and
inspect
my
collection
of
Lepidoptera
?
I
think
it
is
the
most
complete
one
in
the
south-west
of
England
.
By
the
time
that
you
have
looked
through
them
lunch
will
be
almost
ready
.

But
I
was
eager
to
get
back
to
my
charge
.
The
melancholy
of
the
moor
,
the
death
of
the
unfortunate
pony
,
the
weird
sound
which
had
been
associated
with
the
grim
legend
of
the
Baskervilles
,
all
these
things
tinged
my
thoughts
with
sadness
.
Then
on
the
top
of
these
more
or
less
vague
impressions
there
had
come
the
definite
and
distinct
warning
of
Miss
Stapleton
,
delivered
with
such
intense
earnestness
that
I
could
not
doubt
that
some
grave
and
deep
reason
lay
behind
it
.
