You have a grand gift of silence, Watson said. He it makes you quite invaluable as a companion upon my word. It is a great thing for me to have someone to talk to for my own thoughts or not. Over pleasant. I was wondering what I should say to the steer that a woman tonight when she meets me at the door, you forget that I know nothing about it.

There is no reason, therefore, to think that money troubles have been weighing upon his mind.
