Quotation from: The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes

Written by: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle


"I do not know that there is anything else for me to explain. I
was determined to preserve my disguise as long as possible, and
hence my preference for a dirty face. Knowing that my wife would
be terribly anxious, I slipped off my ring and confided it to the
Lascar at a moment when no constable was watching me, together
with a hurried scrawl, telling her that she had no cause to
fear."


"That note only reached her yesterday," said Holmes.
