'I know that you are a close friend of Sherlock Holmes,'said Stapleton.'Has Mr HolmesAxial fanany ideas about Sir Charles death?'
'I'm afraid I can't answer that question,'I said.
'Will Mr Holmes visit us himself?'he asked.
'He can't leave London atcustom nfl jerseysthe moment,'I answered.I was rather surprised that he was asking me these questions

'That is the Great Grimpen Marsh,'he said 'If animals or men go into the marsh,they willcheap nfl jerseyssink into it and die.But I can find my way to the very centre of it.Look,thereFOOTBALL JERSEYSis another of those poor horses.'

'It's gone,'Stapleton said.'The marsh has caught and killed it.That often happens.It is an evildiscount jerseysplace,the Great Grimpen Marsh.'
'But you say you can go safely in and out of it?'I asked him.
'Yes,there are a fewwholesale handbagspaths,and I have found them.The low hills you can see are like islands surrounded bymlb jerseysthe marsh.That is where I can find the unusual plants and butterflies.Andnfl youth jerseysthat's why I found my way through the marsh.'
'I shall try my luck one day,'I said.
He looked at me in surprise.'Pleasenhl jerseydon't try,'he said.'You would never return alive,and it would be my fault.'
'Listen,'I said.'What is that?'
A long,low cry,very deep andwholesale nfl jerseysvery sad,came over the moor.It filled the whole air.Then it died away.
'What is it?'I asked,with a cold fear in my heart.
Stapleton had a strange look on his face.'The people say it's the Hound of the Baskervilles,whichnfl youth jerseysis calling for some thing to hunt and kill.I've heard it once or twice before,but never so loud.'
'You are a man of science,'I said.'Youworldcup jerseysdon't believe that,do you?Isn't there a natural explanation for the sound?'
'A marsh makes strange noisesblack shoxsometimes.It is the water and the wet ground moving.'
'But that was the voice of a living creature,'I said.
'Well,perhaps it was.There areworldcup football jerseyssome very unusual birds on the moors.It was most probably the cry of one of those.'
'But I think it's true,'she said.'Please persuade Sir Henry to leave this place.So many of hisforming machinefamily have died here mys teriously.He must not put his life in danger by staying here.'
'Sir Henry won't leave this place without a real reason,'I said. 'I can't give you a real reason.I don't know anything for certain.' 'One more question,Miss Stapleton,'I said.'The story of the Hound is well known.Why didn't you want your brother to hear what you said?'
'My brother wants the head of the Baskerville family to live in the Hall,'she said.'He wants Sirchina honeymoon toursHenry to continue the good work that Sir Charles began.He doesn't want Sir Henry to go and live in another place.So he doesn't want me to talk about the Hound.I must go now,or my brother will guess I have been speaking to you.Goodbye!'
She turned and went back towards her house,and I walked on to Baskerville Hall.
