It is a beautiful evening.Everything is quiet.Suddenly I see an old cave.Perhaps this is the stranger's hiding place.The place is empty.But there is a loaf of bread and the remains of a fire inside the cave.This must be his place!So I decide to hide in the cave and wait.After a while I hear footsteps.
"It is a lovely evening,my dear Watson," says a voice I know well. "How are you?"
The tall thin stranger is at the entrance- it is Sherlock Holmes!
"Holmes!I'm so happy to see you," I say as get up. "What are you doing here?Why are you not in London?" "I'm trying to find out what is happening," replies Holmes." And I've got some interesting information.Miss Stapleton is not Mr.Stapleton's sister,but his wife."
"Good heavens,Holmes!Are you sure of this?"
"In your report you say that Stapleton was a teacher.After a little investigation,I discover the teacher is obviously our Mr.Stapleton."
"Look,Watson,you must go back to Baskerville Hall and stay with Sir Henry."
Suddenly we hear a terrible scream. "Oh,my goodness!" I gasp. "What is it?"
"The hound!" cries Holmes."Come,Watson!Come!" We run quickly over the moor.
"We are too late,Watson."
A man is lying on the ground.As we approach we see the dead body of Sir Henry Baskerville!He is wearing his brown tweed suit.
"Oh,no!" says Holmes,
"It is not Sir Henry- why,it is the escaped prisoner,Selden!"
Then,suddenly,it is all clear to me.I remember that Sir Henry gave his old suit to Barrymore,and Barrymore probably gave it to Selden.
"Then Selden is dead because of this suit, "says Holmes."Think,Watson!Someone gives the hound some of Sir Henry's clothes. "
Suddenly we see someone walking towards us.It is Stapleton.
Then he sees the dead body and adds: "Oh no!What's this?Is our dear friend Sir Henry dead?"

One Day
One day I counted your fingers and kissed each one.
One day the first snowflakes fell,and I held you up and watched them melt on your baby skin.
One day,we crossed the street,and you held my hand tight.
Then,you were my baby,and now you are my child.
Sometimes,when you sleep,I watch your dream,and I dream too...
That someday you will dive into the cool,clear water of a lake.
Someday you will walk into a deep wood.
Someday you will run so fast and so far,your heart will feel like fire.
Someday you will swing high,so high,higher than you ever dared to swing.
Someday you will hear something so unhappy that you will fold up with sorrow.
Someday you will call a song to the wind,and the wind will carry your song away.
Someday I will stand on this porch and watch your arms waving to me until I no longer see you.
Someday you will look at this house and wonder how something that feels so big can look so small.
Someday I will watch you brushing your child's hair.
Someday,a long time from now,your own hair will glow silver in the sun.
And when that day comes,love,you will remember me.
