Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes

by A. Conan Doyle

Adventure I

could challenge his powers of analysis, and that was

the singular disappearance of the favorite for the

Wessex Cup, and the tragic murder of its trainer.

When, therefore, he suddenly announced his intention

of setting out for the scene of the drama it was only

what I had both expected and hoped for.

"I should be most happy to go down with you if I

should not be in the way," said I.
