Sorry, Holmes. There doesn't appear to be anyone in just now. We tried. We really did. But they just wouldn't answer the door. Our knuckles are sore from pounding on the door. Nobody would bloody answer it. Found a little note stuck on the door. Said they'd be gone for the afternoon. No one was home, Holmes. Are you sure that was the right address? The place looked downright deserted. All the lights was out. The only one around was the cat. Sorry to come back empty-handed, Mr. Holmes. But there wasn't a soul in sight. No one was there. Maybe they heard we were coming and sneaked out the back. What a bloody waste of time! There wasn't a soul about when we arrived. We thought we heard someone walking about inside. But they didn't answer the bell. Maybe we should go back and break a window. No one was there, Guv'ner. We peeked in all the windows. We thought we heard someone walking about inside. But they didn't answer the bell. Maybe we should go back and break a window. No one was there, Guv'ner. We peeked in all the windows. We thought we heard someone walking about inside. But they didn't answer the bell. Maybe we should go back and break a window. No one was there, Guv'ner. We peeked in all the windows. Mr. Holmes: Dudley was a right regular bloke. Says he never met the General. Practically tripped over a stiff who seems to be the fellow you're looking for. Sorry, Holmes. We must have missed him by a hair. Landlady says Lacey's always buttering up to his uncle, some bloke called Captain Juergens. She also said we could find Lacey at the Red Bull Inn. Don't know if this helps, Guv'ner, but the General had a French girlfriend by the name of Arneau right about the same time he was fixing to marry some other bird. Great place to knock down a couple of pints! By the way, that Lacey wasn't there. He headed over to London Bridge Station. Can't believe Pike would see the likes of us. Says Shoemaker's the bloke to talk to. So we tried the library, but we couldn't remember how to spell the thing you was asking for. I want this guy's job. So what does he do all day, anyway? Old H.R. didn't find much else but blood on the tip of the sword. This stuffy bloke wouldn't let us past his front gate. Nervy sot. Sneaked a peek in Cabot's window. The gent was taking off his shoes and putting on his bedroom slippers. Count Rostov came into town a fortnight ago and you can find him at De Keyser's Royal Hotel. He did tell us that he and the General were in war college together. While in France, Armstead had an affair with a French girl. I believe he was engaged to Mary Fitch at the time. Gerade said he called her "horseface" because she was so ugly. I wonder why he didn't marry the french girl? These old bitties made our heads spin. And if you go there yourself, don't take tea. You stay and they'll talk your ear off. The missus said the bloke was busy working. Maybe you'll have better luck. There's some Frenchy play going on at the Princess with a line going around the block. Sorry, Holmes, but we didn't have time to wait. The General was killed by some old codger who walked with a cane and carried a carpetbag. Holmes: These chaps are really in the dark. Never even
knew the old General was dead. The old geezer says his no-good nephew, Booth Lacey, has his eye on the Tontine money. Also thought you'd like to know Juergens gets about on a cane. O'Brian says he's got no dirt on the Tontine ticket holders. All Armstead's money goes to the Armstead Foundation. The hotel manager wouldn't let the likes of us nose around. Maybe you'd better have a look yourself. The good doc says he saw Lord Fitch at 10 o'clock. Said he knew the General
and was sad to hear of his death. Seemed like a right nice bloke. He is leaving to visit his son in America for
a month. I'm sure he can't be a suspect. Said the General's book was controversial from the beginning. The general was revising a section to include the Polar Star diamond. Seems Pierre Matin was supposed to give him the info but they never met. He mentioned a Russian fellow named Rostov. Hope that helps you. The Father sees Lacey every morning at the soup kitchen. We may make it a regular stopping place ourselves. We think this is our kind of place, but unfortunately the manager didn't. He threw us out on our ears. Ellis didn't have much for us today. Rostov's valet, some bloke named Vladimir, was the one who first found Matin's body. Fellow who pinched the Polar Star turned up dead in the Thames. That'll teach him. Sorry, Guv, Hall's in court all day. Meek says it was a sword what done the General in. Seems Porky had his customers placing bets on which ticket holder was going to win the prize money.
