Quotation from: The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes

Written by: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle


"My dear Holmes," said I, "this is too much. You would certainly
have been burned, had you lived a few centuries ago. It is true
that I had a country walk on Thursday and came home in a dreadful
mess, but as I have changed my clothes I can't imagine how you
deduce it. As to Mary Jane, she is incorrigible, and my wife has
given her notice, but there, again, I fail to see how you work it
out."


He chuckled to himself and rubbed his long, nervous hands
together.
