When
I
was
near
the
bottom
of
the
descent
I
looked
back
.
It
was
impossible
,
from
that
position
,
to
see
the
fall
,
but
I
could
see
the
curving
path
which
winds
over
the
shoulder
of
the
hills
and
leads
to
it
.
Along
this
a
man
was
,
I
remember
,
walking
very
rapidly
.
I
could
see
his
black
figure
clearly
outlined
against
the
green
behind
him
.
I
noted
him
,
and
the
energy
with
which
he
walked
,
but
he
passed
from
my
mind
again
as
I
hurried
on
upon
my
errand
.
It
may
have
been
a
little
over
an
hour
before
I
reached
Meiringen
.
Old
Steiler
was
standing
at
the
porch
of
his
hotel
.

"
Well
,
"
said
I
,
as
I
came
hurrying
up
,
"
I
trust
that
she
is
no
worse
?
"
A
look
of
surprise
passed
over
his
face
,
and
at
the
first
quiver
of
his
eyebrows
my
heart
turned
to
lead
in
my
breast
.
"
You
did
not
write
this
?
"
I
said
,
pulling
the
letter
from
my
pocket
.
"
There
is
no
sick
Englishwoman
in
the
hotel
?
"
"
Certainly
not
!
"
he
cried
.
"
But
it
has
the
hotel
mark
upon
it
!
Ha
,
it
must
have
been
written
by
that
tall
Englishman
who
came
in
after
you
had
gone
.
He
said

But
I
waited
for
none
of
the
landlord
's
explanation
.
In
a
tingle
of
fear
I
was
already
running
down
the
village
street
,
and
making
for
the
path
which
I
had
so
lately
descended
.
It
had
taken
me
an
hour
to
come
down
.
For
all
my
efforts
two
more
had
passed
before
I
found
myself
at
the
fall
of
Reichenbach
once
more
.
There
was
Holmes
's
Alpine-stock
still
leaning
against
the
rock
by
which
I
had
left
him
.
But
there
was
no
sign
of
him
,
and
it
was
in
vain
that
I
shouted
.
My
only
answer
was
my
own
voice
reverberating
in
a
rolling
echo
from
the
cliffs
around
me
.
It
was
the
sight
of
that
Alpine-stock
which
turned
me
cold
and
sick
.
He
had
not
gone
to
Rosenlaui
,
then
.
He
had
remained
on
that
three-foot
path
,
with
sheer
wall
on
one
side
and
sheer
drop
on
the
other
,
until
his
enemy
had
overtaken
him
.
The
young
Swiss
had
gone
too
.
He
had
probably
been
in
the
pay
of
Moriarty
and
had
left
the
two
men
together
.
And
then
what
had
happened
?
Who
was
to
tell
us
what
had
happened
then
?
