Come in, come in.

Oh, Mr. Wilson, sir.

Couple of hundred pounds a year, huh?

Oh, there must be millions of red-headed men.

Well, if there's a redder head of hair than mine in the length and breadth of London, I'd like to see it.

Oh, nonsense.

Where's Matt?

What are you going to do, Mr. Wilson?

I'm going around to apply for that vacancy.

If it's rain and gold, no one can say that Jabez Wilson is the man to go out with a sieve.

And did you get the job, Mr. Wilson?

I did that, Mr. Holmes.

There wasn't a head of hair could touch mine for redness.

What do say so myself?

and there was thousands competing.

And what was the work?

Oh, purely nominal, like the paper said.

And it paid four pounds a week, regular as a clock.

All I had to do was sit at a desk in an office at that address there from ten to two and copy out bits from the encyclopedia.

I was pretty well through the A's.
