32584When?
32584A part of my mind seemed to ask,"What horror is this?"
32584I said,"May I not go yet?"

32831Where are the parents of the ones who were born at Rougemont?
32831You saw?
32831Can I go to Vichy-- to get papers and so forth?
32831Could that account for the strange, unsatisfied longings he had always had, his unearthly feelings, his unlikeness to other people?
32831Did n''t I tell you that at last in some strange way I am at peace?"
32831Had Wrexler been the Englishman come back to earth to claim his bride?
32831Had the fair Helene been calling him all this time, across the world?
32831I take it you did n''t hear Carrier''s announcements?"
32831On my motioning him to rise, he did so with a lithe grace:"I suppose you want to change your strange clothes, my lord, and see your quarters?"
32831Or was he Black George, lured back to Rougemont for Helene''s vengeance?
32831Why should I, who am happy here?
32831it sounded like, but before I could question further, he said aloud,"I have leave to depart and join my lady?"

3070A large scale map, I presume?
3070A lawyer, is he not, gray- headed, and walks with a limp?
3070A man''s or a woman''s?

3070About what?
3070Ah, Wilson, I see you have not forgotten the little case in which I had the good fortune to help you?
3070Am I right?
3070And found nothing?
3070And have no doubt searched all the huts until you came to this one?
3070And have you made your will, Sir Henry?
3070And he made you swear to say nothing about your appointment with Sir Charles?
3070And how do you propose to do so?
3070And how much was the residue?
3070And how would you describe Mr. Sherlock Holmes?
3070And the dog?
3070And the hound?
3070And the one beyond, which shines so brightly?
3070And the woman''s name?
3070And then after you had sent the letter he dissuaded you from keeping the appointment?
3070And then?
3070And this Cavalier opposite to me-- the one with the black velvet and the lace?
3070And what is your theory of this poor fellow''s death?

3070And why were you so pressing that Sir Charles should destroy your letter?

3070And you, a trained man of science, believe it to be supernatural?
3070Any orders, sir?
3070Anything good?
3070Are you armed, Lestrade?
3070Are you armed?
3070Are you coming up?
3070Are you? 3070 But Dr. Mortimer was no doubt already stopping there?"
3070But I understand that it is something more modern and practical upon which you wish to consult me?
3070But are you sure of this, Holmes? 3070 But how about his food?"
3070But how about the case?
3070But how about the chance of his holding someone up before he goes?
3070But how?
3070But how?
3070But if you saw him so seldom and wrote so seldom, how did he know enough about your affairs to be able to help you, as you say that he has done?
3070But it had not approached the body?
3070But not actually raining?
3070But what do you intend to do?
3070But what is it that alarms you?
3070But what is it?
3070But what is the danger?

3070But why keep me in the dark?
3070But why should you wish to go into so horrible a place?
3070But why this elaborate deception?
3070But your family have been with us for several generations, have they not? 3070 But, hark, what is that?"
3070But, surely, you said that it was a new brown boot?
3070But, tell me, Watson, what do you make of our visitor''s stick? 3070 By the way, Dr. Mortimer, who is this Barrymore, anyhow?"
3070By the way, I do n''t suppose you appreciate that we have been mourning over you as having broken your neck?
3070Can you not tell when a warning is for your own good? 3070 Can you see anything?"
3070Can you tell me anything about him? 3070 Caught cold, Watson?"
3070Certainly, but how?
3070Colour of his eyes?
3070Did Barrymore profit at all by Sir Charles''s will?
3070Did any see it after?
3070Did he ever strike you as being crazy-- this brother of hers?
3070Did he give any explanation of his conduct?
3070Did he say anything more?
3070Did he say so?
3070Did it do you any good?
3070Did n''t he get the telegram? 3070 Did the boy deliver it into your own hands?"
3070Did you answer it yourself?
3070Did you correspond with Sir Charles?
3070Did you correspond with him?
3070Did you ever write to Sir Charles asking him to meet you?
3070Did you see him then?
3070Did you, for example, happen to hear someone, a woman I think, sobbing in the night?
3070Do n''t you think that is an admirable sentiment?
3070Do none suggest themselves? 3070 Do you know how he died?"
3070Do you know the names?
3070Do you mean danger from this family fiend or do you mean danger from human beings?
3070Do you mean that your wife and you wish to leave?
3070Do you not find it interesting?
3070Do you see anything there?
3070Do you see that Black Tor over yonder? 3070 Do you think a woman could go alone at that hour to a bachelor''s house?"
3070Footprints?
3070For example?
3070From Charing Cross Hospital?
3070Going out, Watson?
3070Had Sir Charles reached this?
3070Had Sir Charles received any other letters in the same writing?
3070Has Mr. Sherlock Holmes?
3070Has anything escaped me?
3070Has he escaped?
3070Have you any better explanation?
3070Have you any objection to my looking at your register?
3070Have you been on the moor already?
3070Have you ever met him?
3070Have you made anything out of the tangle? 3070 Have you seen him?"
3070Have you the dates of those letters?
3070He being the heir?
3070How can he see the guiding wands to- night? 3070 How can you do that?"
3070How can you say that, sir?
3070How can you say that?
3070How did you know that?
3070How did you know what I was doing? 3070 How do you explain it?"
3070How do you know of him then?
3070How do you know that?
3070How does she live?
3070How high was it?
3070How in the world can you say that?
3070How long will it take you to make up your mind?
3070How on earth did you do that?
3070How so?
3070How was it that no one else saw it?
3070How was that?
3070I guess we are aiding and abetting a felony, Watson? 3070 I hope your visit has cast some light upon those occurrences which have puzzled us?"
3070I presume that the reason he gave was that you would receive help from Sir Charles for the legal expenses connected with your divorce?
3070I presume, Doctor, that you could tell the skull of a negro from that of an Esquimau?
3070I say, Watson,said the baronet,"what would Holmes say to this?
3070I trust that there is nothing of consequence which I have overlooked?
3070I trust that they do not mean that I have done anything to forfeit your confidence?
3070I understand that the yew hedge is penetrated at one point by a gate?
3070If this woman is in truth his wife, where does Mrs. Laura Lyons come in?
3070If you did n''t see him, how do you know he was in the loft?
3070If you have never worn them, why did you put them out to be cleaned?
3070In spirit?
3070In your opinion there is a diabolical agency which makes Dartmoor an unsafe abode for a Baskerville-- that is your opinion?
3070Into his own hands?
3070Is he safe?
3070Is it hard to know?
3070Is it like anyone you know?
3070Is it not the very picture of an old family home? 3070 Is it ready?"
3070Is that convenient to you, Watson?
3070Is that serious?
3070Is there any other opening?
3070Is there anything between the hedges and the walk?
3070Is there no such thing as a gentleman?
3070Is this true, Barrymore?
3070It is he, then, who is our enemy-- it is he who dogged us in London?
3070It seems natural, does it not? 3070 It suggests-- halloa, my dear fellow, what on earth is the matter?"
3070May I ask if he is going to honour us with a visit himself?
3070Might I trouble you for it-- the inside page, please, with the leading articles?
3070My God, what''s that, Watson?
3070My dear Watson, clumsy as I have been, you surely do not seriously imagine that I neglected to get the number? 3070 My dear fellow, how can you possibly be so sure of that?"
3070My footprint, I presume?
3070No doubt,said I;"but how do you know that he is anywhere upon the moor?"
3070No,said Holmes;"did you?"
3070Not on the very day of Sir Charles''s death?
3070Nothing more that you can remember?
3070Now, tell me, Dr. Mortimer-- and this is important-- the marks which you saw were on the path and not on the grass?
3070Of course you know the legend of the fiend dog which haunts the family?
3070Oh, John, John, have I brought you to this? 3070 Oh, he mentioned his name, did he?
3070Oh, you return to- morrow?
3070On the second floor?
3070Or more astonished, eh?
3070Queer spot to choose, is it not?
3070Quite in the back row, eh? 3070 Running from what?"
3070Shall I run on and stop them?
3070Shall we move farther back upon higher ground?
3070Shall we turn back?
3070So that to reach the Yew Alley one either has to come down it from the house or else to enter it by the moor- gate?
3070Some poaching case, no doubt?
3070Still looking for your boot?
3070Surely you are mistaken about his trade?
3070Surely you will stay and have some dinner?
3070The devil''s agents may be of flesh and blood, may they not? 3070 Then I understand that on your arrival in London yesterday you went out at once and bought a pair of boots?"
3070Then anyone could have got over it?
3070Then had you not better consult him?
3070Then he was certainly there?
3070Then how is it that you did not go?
3070Then, how can I assist you?
3070There are many sheep- dogs on the moor?
3070There is no other claimant, I presume?
3070To London?
3070To see Mrs. Laura Lyons?
3070To walk across the moor?
3070Was ever such bad luck and such bad management, too? 3070 Was it here?"
3070We are to wait here?
3070Well, Watson, what do you make of it?
3070Well, Watson, what do you think of this new light?
3070Well, then, to- night?
3070Well, what happened when you did get there?
3070Well, you see the hills beyond? 3070 Well,"said I,"has this precious relation of yours departed, or is he still lurking out yonder?"
3070Well?
3070Well?
3070Well?
3070Were they on the same side of the path as the moor- gate?
3070What are they? 3070 What are you doing here, Barrymore?"
3070What are your questions?
3070What business?
3070What can I tell you about him?
3070What can we do?
3070What did he do?
3070What do they call this sound?
3070What do you make of it yourself?
3070What do you make of it, Dr. Mortimer? 3070 What do you make of it?"
3070What do you mean, then?
3070What do you say, Watson?
3070What do you think about it, Mr. Sherlock Holmes?
3070What do you think is the cause of so strange a sound?
3070What does it suggest?
3070What effect do you think it will have upon his plans now that he knows you are here?
3070What have I withheld?
3070What is it? 3070 What is it?"
3070What is that?
3070What is the Alley like?
3070What is the next move?
3070What is the object of these questions?
3070What is this, Perkins?
3070What new conditions?
3070What shall we do now?
3070What sort of facts?
3070What sort of night was it?'' 3070 What then?"
3070What then?
3070What was it you wanted to ask, sir?
3070What was it? 3070 What was that?"
3070What was the use?
3070What, are you coming, Watson?
3070When did he say this?
3070When do you desire to go?
3070Where can she be, then, since there is no light in any other room except the kitchen?
3070Where is it, Watson?
3070Where is it?
3070Who delivered it?
3070Who is he, then?
3070Who is she?
3070Who is the gentleman with the telescope?
3070Who knew that you were going to the Northumberland Hotel?
3070Who was the man?
3070Who-- who''s this?
3070Who?
3070Whom would you recommend, then?
3070Why about Sir Henry in particular?
3070Why in thunder should anyone follow or watch me?
3070Why should I go back?
3070Why should I not go?
3070Why should I stay here alone?
3070Why should he not go to the home of his fathers?
3070Why should we not arrest him at once?
3070Why should we not seize him at once?
3070Why so?
3070Why then, did you not write to Sir Charles and explain this?
3070Why was it bad?
3070Why, Dr. Watson, that''s not you, is it? 3070 Why, who do you think this is?"
3070With a wood round it?
3070Would it not be well in the first place to get rid of this Barrymore couple?
3070Would you wish dinner to be served at once, sir?
3070You do n''t mean that you know where he is?
3070You do n''t mean to say that you came after me in spite of all?
3070You do n''t mind my driving straight home, Sir Henry?
3070You have always kept together, I presume?
3070You have arms, I suppose?
3070You have lost one of your boots?
3070You have not observed anyone follow or watch you?
3070You knew him, did you not?
3070You know it well, then?
3070You know that there is another man then?
3070You know the story of the hound?
3070You mean that the thing is supernatural?
3070You saw this?
3070You say it was large?
3070You say, Watson, that the lady is not there?
3070You think that he was waiting for someone?
3070You think, then, that some dog pursued Sir Charles, and that he died of fright in consequence?
3070''Do We Progress?''
3070''Is all ready for Sir Henry?''
3070A sheep- dog of the moor?
3070Am I right?"
3070And Stapleton, where is he?
3070And anyone else?"
3070And from what?
3070And have I not cause for such a feeling?
3070And how did you localize me?
3070And then you heard nothing until you read the reports of the death in the paper?"
3070And why did she weep so bitterly?
3070And why-- why?
3070And you saw no more of him?"
3070Are you strong enough to stand?"
3070Are you sure of what you say?
3070Barrymore?"
3070Beneath it were signed the initials L. L.""Have you got that slip?"
3070Besides, besides--""Why do you hesitate?"
3070But I want to know why the word''moor''should have been written?"
3070But how could I know-- how could l know-- that he would risk his life alone upon the moor in the face of all my warnings?"
3070But how did you know me?"
3070But how in the name of wonder did you come here, and what have you been doing?
3070But supposing, for argument''s sake, that we had him arrested to- night, what on earth the better off should we be for that?
3070But the marks?"
3070But where could such a hound lie concealed, where did it get its food, where did it come from, how was it that no one saw it by day?
3070But you had your suspicions?"
3070But you were very young when you last saw Baskerville Hall, were you not?"
3070But you will come on, will you not, and see Merripit House?"
3070But, dear me, what''s this?
3070By the way"--his eyes darted again from my face to Holmes''s--"did you hear anything else besides a cry?"
3070By whom?"
3070Can you tell the position of the rooms?
3070Come now, Watson, did n''t you think yourself that it was the cry of a hound?
3070Could he-- could he be the stranger whom I saw upon the tor?
3070Could this be my stern, self- contained friend?
3070Could you swear to that man''s face within the cab?"
3070Did I think that because I was a baronet I could do what I liked?
3070Did he find out where he hid, or what he was doing?"
3070Did no one examine?"
3070Did the composer fear an interruption-- and from whom?"
3070Did the pale, watchful Barrymore know more than he cared to say?
3070Did they know that they would receive this?"
3070Did you ever hear a bittern booming?"
3070Did you get your other boot?"
3070Did you see him come out on us?"
3070Do I understand you to say that you have yourself had some remarkable experience since you arrived in London?"
3070Do my eyes deceive me, or is there at the present moment something moving upon that hill- side?"
3070Do n''t you see now whence these words have been taken?"
3070Do n''t you think, Watson, that you are away from your charge rather long?
3070Do you observe anything remarkable about that?"
3070Do you see?"
3070Do you think that I should intrude if I were to call this afternoon and make the acquaintance of Sir Henry?"
3070Even the best of us----""You thought it might injure his reputation?"
3070Good heavens, are you mad?"
3070Halloa, Watson, what''s this?
3070Has he remained in London, or has he followed us down here?
3070Has it never struck you that the way to catch that man was to find out where he got his food, and so trace it to him?"
3070Have you among your neighbours or acquaintances on Dartmoor any man with a black, full beard?"
3070Have you heard the De Reszkes?
3070Have you met Mr. James Desmond?"
3070Have you turned the case over in your mind?"
3070Have you yesterday''s Times, Watson?"
3070He passes along the same path at the same hour, and to whom should he be going except to the convict?"
3070He?"
3070Her initials were L. L.""How do you know this, Barrymore?"
3070Holmes?"
3070Holmes?"
3070How about that hour of darkness in which the power of evil is exalted?"
3070How could I settle the point forever?
3070How could he claim it without causing suspicion and inquiry?"
3070How could he have permitted Sir Henry to fall in love with her?"
3070How dared I offer her attentions which were distasteful to her?
3070How did he die?"
3070How did he know?"
3070How did you do it?"
3070How do you know that the woman is his wife?"
3070How else could it be known so quickly that it was the Northumberland Hotel which he had chosen?
3070How far do you think it is?"
3070How is the owner going to restore the glories of the Baskervilles if he has not money enough to keep up the property?
3070I suppose that by Saturday all might be ready?"
3070I trust that Sir Henry is none the worse for his journey?"
3070If I could only use it to detach his wife----""His wife?"
3070If you hold these views, why have you come to consult me at all?
3070If you meant no more than this when you first spoke to me, why should you not wish your brother to overhear what you said?
3070If your position is innocent, why did you in the first instance deny having written to Sir Charles upon that date?"
3070Is he safe?"
3070Is it not obvious?"
3070Is it possible that I am really in danger from so dark a cause?
3070Is it, then, stretching our inference too far to say that the presentation was on the occasion of the change?"
3070Is n''t that the direction of the great Grimpen Mire?"
3070Is that a place where a shepherd would be likely to take his station?
3070Is there anything that would prevent me from making a good husband to a woman that I loved?"
3070James, you delivered that telegram to Mr. Barrymore at the Hall last week, did you not?"
3070L.?"
3070May I inquire who has the honour to be the first?"
3070Might I trouble you then to be ready in half an hour, and we can stop at Marcini''s for a little dinner on the way?"
3070My God, can there be some truth in all these stories?
3070Never been there?
3070Now, Mr. Holmes, what would you advise me to do with him?"
3070Now, you rascal, do you deny that it is a signal?
3070Old Frankland the crank?"
3070On what occasion would it be most probable that such a presentation would be made?
3070Or a spectral hound, black, silent, and monstrous?
3070Shall I have a cab called?"
3070Sheep- pens?"
3070Sir Henry has, I suppose, no superstitious fears in the matter?"
3070Sir Henry?
3070So his name was Sherlock Holmes, was it?"
3070So you actually thought that I was the criminal?"
3070So you have been to Coombe Tracey, have you?"
3070Somebody hurt?
3070Supposing that anything happened to our young friend here-- you will forgive the unpleasant hypothesis!--who would inherit the estate?"
3070The one is whether any crime has been committed at all; the second is, what is the crime and how was it committed?
3070The question now is, what shall we do with this poor wretch''s body?
3070The sending of this letter was suggested to you by Stapleton?"
3070Then, again, whom was he waiting for that night, and why was he waiting for him in the Yew Alley rather than in his own house?"
3070There is one very singular thing, however: How came Selden, in the darkness, to know that the hound was on his trail?"
3070They are all family portraits, I presume?"
3070This article, you say, contains all the public facts?"
3070Was he also out in that deluged-- the unseen watcher, the man of darkness?
3070Was he our malignant enemy, or was he by chance our guardian angel?
3070Was he the agent of others or had he some sinister design of his own?
3070Was it possible that it was Barrymore after all whom we had seen in the cab in Regent Street?
3070Was it possible that this stolidly respectable person was of the same blood as one of the most notorious criminals in the country?
3070Was that his work or was it possibly the doing of someone who was bent upon counteracting his schemes?
3070Was the wicket- gate closed?"
3070Was there a human agency in the matter?
3070Watson?"
3070Well, do you see the low hill beyond with the thornbush upon it?
3070Well, have you got it?
3070What about the convict on the moor?"
3070What are those latticed windows at this end?"
3070What became of the hound when its master was in London?"
3070What did Selden say?
3070What do they say of it?"
3070What do you advise that we do now?"
3070What do you make of that?"
3070What do you make of those?"
3070What do you propose to do?"
3070What do you think of that, Watson?"
3070What do you think of that?
3070What do you think we should do?"
3070What does it mean?
3070What does it mean?"
3070What does it mean?"
3070What does man want more?
3070What has he against me?
3070What interest could he have in persecuting the Baskerville family?
3070What is he after?"
