My father was a cemetery（公墓）keeper．When I was a child，he often took me there．Before we left each time，he would lay some stones on some graves（坟墓）．I never asked why．I just thought that was his work．
Yesterday， I visited my sick father． He asked me to go to the cemetery and lay some stones． For some reason， it had to be done that day． I agreed． I hadn't been there for a long time．
When I got there， I found a woman in front of one of the graves I would lay a stone on．As I went to lay it， I heard her whisper" Thank you"． It was then that I noticed the date of death on the grave was that same day． The grave was that of a child， only five when he died fifteen years ago．

I was so afraid that he would be alone． But your father marked the grave every time he came． Each time I returned here， I saw that stone and it always comforted me． Your father is the kind of man who would ease the pain of a mother's heart though we are strangers． Just tell him you saw me today， won't you？" She said．
It took me a minute to find my voice． That small stone marked the grave of a child and the heart of his mother．

That morning， we noticed a cab following Sir Henry and Dr．Mortimer in London． But who？

Sir Henry and I agreed to take the 10：30 train on Saturday．
Holmes thought deeply on the way home： the story of the Hound， Sir Charles's death， the strange letter， the missing boot and the black﹣bearded man． He sat in his room all afternoon， smoking and thinking．

"That becomes a dead end， Watson． We will have to look for another way to go forward．

"No， no， "said Holmes．" Instead， I'll give you money if you tell me about the man in your cab this morning． He watched this house at 10：00 and then told you to follow the two gentlemen． "
The driver looked surprised and then answered，"The man said he was a detective and that I shouldn't tell anyone about him． "
"It's serious， my friend， and you may be in trouble if you refuse to answer．"
"His name，" said the driver， "was Sherlock Holmes． "
I'd never seen Holmes more surprised． Then he laughed． " He scored against me thattime， Watson． "
