I could not sleep
Baskerville Hall Holmes came tocheap usb flash drivesWaterloo Station to say goodbye to us.Our friends told him that they were sure nobody had followed them since our last meeting.Sir Henry's other shoe had not reappeared.Holmes repeated his warning that Sir Hen ry should not go on the moor at night,and should not go any where alone.Then Holmes checked with me that I had my gun,an armycustom made suitrevolver.
The journey was fast and enjoyable.We were met at New town Station and driven to Baskerville Hall.The countryside we drove through was beautiful,but behind it we could see the long,dark,frightening hills of the moor.
I remembered the case well.It had been a very cruel murder.I thought of this killer out on theerpempty,wild moor,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 roughledstones stood on 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,with the black shapes of old treesAxial fanon 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 gotBronze sculpturecloser,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 lightbronze bustshone through the heavy windows.Black smoke was com ing from one of the high chimneys of the main building.
Barrymore,the butler,and his 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 toroofing screwgo home,and we went into the hall,where a fire was burning.It was a fine room,large and high.
Barrymore showed us to our rooms He was aSwimming Pool Heat Pumptall,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 lookedwow power levelingdown on us silently,and did nothing to make us feel happier.
After dinner weWorld of Warcraft Goldwent to our rooms.Before I got into bed,I looked out of my window A strong wind sang sadly as 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 theseo companycrying of a person who was hurt by some deep sadness.The sound was not far away,and was certainly in the house.
