Quotation from: The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes

Written by: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle


The object which had caught his eye was a small dog lash hung on
one corner of the bed. The lash, however, was curled upon itself
and tied so as to make a loop of whipcord.


"What do you make of that, Watson?"


"It's a common enough lash. But I don't know why it should be
tied."


"That is not quite so common, is it? Ah, me! it's a wicked world,
and when a clever man turns his brains to crime it is the worst
of all. I think that I have seen enough now, Miss Stoner, and
with your permission we shall walk out upon the lawn."
