Edmund Lovelace

Well, I won't pretend I like him.

But what a ghastly way to die.

All they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.

So the scriptures say, Mr. Lovelace.

The very suspicion of the killing has brought murder to pass.

Well, it's too late to prevent it.

Our job now is to find the killer and see that he's brought to justice.

Can I get a little higher with you, old chap?

You know, Holmes...

I think you should have sent for the police right away.

In a case like this, Watson, I prefer to be my own police.

When I have stunned the web, they may take the flies, but not before.

What are the results of your medical examination, old chap?

Can you estimate the time of death to be accurate?

Yes.

It's now one o'clock and we know that he was alive at eight.

Mr. Edmund Lovelace saw him leave for his room at that hour.

Yes, if he was telling the truth.

One thing we do know for a fact is that this man was murdered at the exact moment he was going to bed.

He's wearing his nightgown and nightcap, but his bed has not been slept in.
