The Strange Story of Jonathan Small.
It is my treasure; and if I can't have the loot I'll take darned good care that no one else does.
Small was from a family of well-respected farmers, but he was a bit of a rover.
I got into a mess over a girl when I was 18, and could only get out of it again by taking the queen's shilling and joining the 3d Buffs, which was just starting for India.
As a soldier, Small went for a swim in the Ganges...
Argh! MY LEG!
Small was unfit as a soldier, but an indigo-planter named Abelwhite gave him a job keeping an eye on his workers.
Small sought safety in the city of Agra in the old fort with a band of volunteers from the original British army.
I should be very glad of a little assistance. Mr Sherlock Holmes is a wonderful man.
An aged man, clad in seafaring garb turns up.
Wait a bit my friend.
If Mr Holmes ain't here, then Mr Holmes must find it all out for himself.
