"I shall glance into the case for you," said Holmes, rising, "and I have no doubt that we shall reach some definite result.

Above all, try to let Mr. Hosmer Angel vanish from your memory, as he has done from your life."

"Then you don't think I'll see him again?" "I fear not."

I should like an accurate description of him and any letters of his which you can spare."

"I advertised for him in last Saturday's Chronicle," said she. "Here is the slip and here are four letters from him."
她說："我在上星期六的《紀事報》上登過尋找他的廣告。這就是這條廣告，這里還有他的四封來信。"
"Thank you. And your address?" "No. 31 Lyon Place, Camberwell."
"謝謝你。你的通信地址呢？""坎伯韋爾區，里昂街31號。"
"Mr. Angel's address you never had, I understand. Where is your father's place of business?"
"我知道你從來沒有過安吉爾先生的地址，那么，你父親的工作地點在哪里呢？"
"He travels for Westhouse And Marbank, the great claret importers of Fenchurch Street."
"他是芬丘奇特的法國紅葡萄酒大進口商韋斯特豪斯·馬班克商行的旅行推銷員。"

You will leave the papers here, and remember the advice which I have given you.

I shall be true to Hosmer. He shall find me ready when he comes back."
我要忠實于霍斯默。他一回來我就要和他結婚。"
