• Sherlock Holmes : Watson, we have been given a line of investigation which has been missed by the police and which a singular chance has placed in our hands. Now let us follow it to the bitter end.

  Dr. Watson : [mutters, shivering]  Extremely bitter.

  Sherlock Holmes : Faces to the south, then, and quick march!

• Dr. Watson : I suppose that, homely as it looks, that thing has some deadly story linked to it. That is the clue which will guide you in the solution of some mystery and the punishment of some crime.

• [last lines] 

  Dr. Watson : Midnight. Merry Christmas, Holmes.

  Sherlock Holmes : And to you, my dear friend.

  Dr. Watson : Just a minute. Holmes, I cannot contemplate eating while John Horner is still on remand. Do you suppose Bradstreet or one of his colleagues might still be at their desks?

  Sherlock Holmes : Eh, well. You're quite right, Watson. Come, let's go.
