Союз рыжих

"That is better," said John Clay serenely.	А теперь я надену на вас наручники.
He made a sweeping bow to the three of us and walked quietly off in the custody of the detective.	- Уберите свои грязные руки, пожалуйста!
"Really, Mr. Holmes," said Mr. Merryweather as we followed them from the cellar,	Не трогайте меня! - сказал ему наш пленник после того, как наручники были надеты.
"I do not know how the bank can thank you or repay you.	- Может быть, вам неизвестно, что во мне течет королевская кровь.
There is no doubt that you have detected and defeated in the most complete manner one of the most determined attempts at bank robbery that have ever come within my experience."	Будьте же любезны, обращаясь ко мне, называть меня "сэр" и говорить мне "пожалуйста".
"I have had one or two little scores of my own to settle with Mr. John Clay," said Holmes.	- Отлично, - сказал Джонс, усмехаясь.
