"My dear lady," says Holmes. "You're shivering. Are you cold? Do you want a cup of hot tea?"
"I'm not cold," the woman replies, "I fear for my life!"
"We are here to help you. Don't worry about anything. I don't know you. But I know many things about you. For example, I know how you travel. You came to London by train. You also ride to the train station on a horse-drawn wagon(马车)."
"Why, yes. You're right. But how do you know these things?"
"I see a return ticket in your glove. I see fresh mud on the left arm of your dress. Now tell us your problem."
"My name is Helen Stoner," she states, "My mother and father are dead. I am living with my stepfather, Dr Grimesby Roylott. He comes from a rich family. But they are no longer rich.
