The journey
'A dangerous criminal has escapedusb flash drivesfrom the prison,sir,'he told us.'He's been free for three days now,and people are frightened.His name is Selden.He's the man who did that murder in London.'
I remembered the case well.It had been a very cruel murder.I thought of this killer out on the empty,wildpromotional usb drivemoor,and I felt more and more uncomfortable about my surroundings.The beautiful green fields with their thick hedges were behind us,and we were now on the cold,open moor.Everything was grey,hard and wild Huge rough stones stoodWorld of Warcraft Goldon the hard ground.The tops of the hills stood sharply like cruel teeth against the sky.A cold wind was blowing,and night was falling.I saw Sir Henry pull his coat closer round him.
At last we reached the gates of Baskerville Hall.From the gates a long,dark road led up to the house,withwow power levelingthe black shapes of old trees on each side of it.At the end of this road we could see the great house standing with a pale light round it like a ghost.
'I can understand why my uncle felt that trouble was com ing to him here.It's not a welcoming place,'said Sir Henry,and his voice shook as he spoke. As we gotOAcloser,we could see that the Hall was a heavy,dark building with a large main entrance.Most of the building was old and was covered in dark green ivy,but some of it had been built more recently and was of grim,black stone.A dull light shone through the heavy windows.Black smoke was com ing fromcheap ed hardyone of the high chimneys of the main building.
'Welcome,Sir Henry!Welcome to Baskerville Hall.' Barrymore,the butler,andbronze foundryhis wife were waiting on the steps at the main entrance They came down and took our suit cases into the house Dr Mortimer left us to go home,and we went intoSwimming Pool Heat Pumpthe hall,where a fire was burning.It was a fine room,large and high. 'It's exactly as I imagined an old family home,'Sir Henry said.
Barrymore showed us to our rooms He waspolycarbonate sheeta tall,handsome man,with a full black beard.After we had washed and changed our clothes,he brought us to dinner.The diningroom was not very welcoming.It needed more lights to make it brighter.On the walls were the pictures of the Baskervilles of the past.They looked down on us silently,and did nothing to make us feel happier.
After dinner we went to our rooms.Before I got into bed,I looked out of my window A strong wind sang sadlywall switchas it bent the trees in front of the Hall.A half moon shone through the dark,flying clouds onto the wild and empty moor.
I could not sleep.Then,suddenly,in the middle of the night I heard very clearly the sound of a woman crying.It was the crying of a person who was hurt by somewow power levelingdeep sadness.The sound was not far away,and was certainly in the house.
