"The public," it said, "have lost a sensational treat through the sudden death of the man Hope, who was suspected of the murder of Mr. Enoch Drebber and of Mr. Joseph Stangerson. The details of the case will probably be never known now, though we are informed upon good authority that the crime was the result of an old standing and romantic feud, in which love and Mormonism bore a part. It seems that both the victims belonged, in their younger days, to the Latter Day Saints, and Hope, the deceased prisoner, hails also from Salt Lake City. If the case has had no other effect, it, at least, brings out in the most striking manner the efficiency of our detective police force, and will serve as a lesson to all foreigners that they will do wisely to settle their feuds at home, and not to carry them on to British soil. It is an open secret that the credit of this smart capture belongs entirely to the well-known Scotland Yard officials, Messrs. Lestrade and Gregson. The man was apprehended, it appears, in the rooms of a certain Mr. Sherlock Holmes, who has himself, as an amateur, shown some talent in the detective line, and who, with such instructors, may hope in time to attain to some degree of their skill. It is expected that a testimonial of some sort will be presented to the two officers as a fitting recognition of their services."

"Didn't I tell you so when we started (разве я вам так и не сказал в самом начале: «когда мы начинали»)?" cried Sherlock Holmes with a laugh (смеясь, воскликнул Шерлок Холмс). "That's the result of all our Study in Scarlet: to get them a testimonial (вот результат нашего этюда в багровых тонах — мы добились награды для них)!"

"Never mind," I answered (не обращайте внимания, — ответил я), "I have all the facts in my journal (все факты в моем дневнике), and the public shall know them (и публика их узнает). In the meantime you must make yourself contented by the consciousness of success (а пока вы должны довольствоваться осознанием своего успеха), like the Roman miser (подобно римскому скряге)—

" ‘Populus me sibilat (/пусть/ народ меня освищет), at mihi plaudo Ipse domi (себе в ладоши хлопаю дома) simul ac nummos contemplor in arca (лишь только сестерции увижу в сундуке /лат./).’ "
