ADVENTURE V. THE FIVE ORANGE PIPS	Артур Конан-Дойл
When I glance over my notes and records of the Sherlock Holmes cases between the years '82 and '90, I am faced by so many which present strange and interesting features that it is no easy matter to know which to choose and which to leave.	Пять зернышек апельсина
Some, however, have already gained publicity through the papers, and others have not offered a field for those peculiar qualities which my friend possessed in so high a degree, and which it is the object of these papers to illustrate.	Когда я просматриваю мои заметки о Шерлоке Холмсе за годы от 1882 до 1890, я нахожу так много удивительно интересных дел, что просто не знаю, какие выбрать.
Some, too, have baffled his analytical skill, and would be, as narratives, beginnings without an ending, while others have been but partially cleared up, and have their explanations founded rather upon conjecture and surmise than on that absolute logical proof which was so dear to him.	Однако одни из них уже известны публике из газет, а другие не дают возможности показать во всем блеске те своеобразные качества, которыми мой друг обладал в такой высокой степени.
There is, however, one of these last which was so remarkable in its details and so startling in its results that I am tempted to give some account of it in spite of the fact that there are points in connection with it which never have been, and probably never will be, entirely cleared up.	Все же одно из этих дел было так замечательно по своим подробностям и так неожиданно по результатам, что мне хотелось бы рассказать о нем, хотя с ним связаны такие обстоятельства, которые, по всей вероятности, никогда не будут полностью выяснены.
The year '87 furnished us with a long series of cases of greater or less interest, of which I retain the records.	1887 год принес длинный ряд более или менее интересных дел.
Among my headings under this one twelve months I find an account of the adventure of the Paradol Chamber, of the Amateur Mendicant Society, who held a luxurious club in the lower vault of a furniture warehouse, of the facts connected with the loss of the British barque Sophy Anderson, of the singular adventures of the Grice Patersons in the island of Uffa, and finally of the Camberwell poisoning case.	Все они записаны мною.
In the latter, as may be remembered, Sherlock Holmes was able, by winding up the dead man's watch, to prove that it had been wound up two hours before, and that therefore the deceased had gone to bed within that time-a deduction which was of the greatest importance in clearing up the case.	Среди них - рассказ о
All these I may sketch out at some future date, but none of them present such singular features as the strange train of circumstances which I have now taken up my pen to describe.	"Парадол-чэмбер", Обществе Нищих-любителей, которое имело роскошный клуб в подвальном этаже большого мебельного магазина; отчет о фактах, связанных с гибелью британского судна
It was in the latter days of September, and the equinoctial gales had set in with exceptional violence.	"Софи Эндерсон"; рассказ о странных приключениях Грайса Петерсона на острове Юффа и, наконец, записки, относящиеся к Кемберуэльскому делу об отравлении.
