INSPECTOR MacDONALD: '. . . I thought you told me once, Mr Holmes, that you had never met Professor Moriarty.'
Sherlock Holmes: 'No, I never have.'
INSPECTOR MacDONALD: 'Then how do you know about his rooms?'
SHERLOCK HOLMES: 'Ah, that's another matter. I have been three times in his rooms, twice waiting for him under different pretexts and leaving before he came. Once - well, I can hardly tell about the once to an official detective. It was on the last occasion that I took the liberty of running over his papers, with the most unexpected results.'
INSPECTOR MacDONALD: 'You found something compromising?'
SHERLOCK HOLMES: 'Absolutely nothing. That was what amazed me. However, you have now seen the point of the picture. It shows him to be a very wealthy man. How did he acquire wealth? He is unmarried. His younger brother is a station-master in the West of England. . . .'
