To my alarm, Holmes acquiesced to my decision almost immediately. He insisted on having young Simpson stay to report the verdict by telegram as soon as possible, but allowed himself to be taken out of the court by Bunter and Anstruther with barely a word of protest.

The boys were harder to convince. If I hadn't struck on telling Alfie that he was to tell our cook to feed the lot of them as soon as she could, I doubt they would have gone. But their stomachs were nearly as empty as my own.

Mary, however, wouldn't concede an inch.

Now, why do I get the impression that Bunter and Holmes may have something exciting to report by the time Watson checks in on them later on...

All well and good. And now I'm fretting about Holmes again, damn you!
