Holmes took each face of the house in turn, and examined it with great interest.
He then led the way inside, and went over the whole building from basement to attic.
Most of the rooms were unfurnished, but, nonetheless, Holmes inspected them all minutely.
Finally, on the top corridor which ran outside three untenanted bedrooms, he again was seized with a spasm of merriment.
There are really some very unique features about this case, Watson,' said he.
"'I think it is time now that we took our friend Lestrade into our confidence.
He has had his little smile at our expense, and perhaps we may do as much by him if my reading of this problem proves to be correct.
Yes, yes, I think I see how we should approach it.'
The Scotland Yard inspector was still writing in the parlour when Holmes interrupted him.
"'I understand that you were writing a report of this case,' said he.
"'So I am.
Don't you think it might be a little premature?
I can't help thinking that your evidence is not complete.'
Lestrade knew my friend too well to disregard his words.
He laid down his pen and looked curiously at him.
"'What do you mean, Mr.
Holmes?'
"'Only that there is an important witness whom you have not seen.'
Can you produce him?
I think I can.
