It was not long before I heard ①footsteps in the hall. The door opened and an old lady walked in. She was of medium height, and wore a black ②veil over her face. She handed me a folded piece of paper and said, 'Hurry! If you don't come quickly, it will be too late!' Then she left as quickly as she came.

I ③unfolded the paper. 'The silver teapot' was written on the note. 'What could this mean?' I thought. I put on my coat and ran outside and took a taxi to Waterloo Bridge. By the time I reached the bridge, it had started to snow. I could only see dark figures moving around under the bridge. Then I heard someone ④whisper, 'Did someone bring a message?' A beggar stepped from under the bridge. It was Holmes.

'Yes, here it is,' I answered. 'I hope you know what it means.' Holmes read the note and then put it in his pocket.

'Now I know the answer!' he said. 'The notepaper is expensive. It smells of roses - a scent very popular with young ladies. I ⑤presume, therefore, that the ⑥notepaper belongs to a rich, young lady.'

'But the messenger was not young!' I replied.

'I didn't say that the notepaper belonged to the messenger, did I?' asked Holmes.

'No, you didn't,' I replied thoughtfully.

'You must think and observe more carefully, Watson,' said Holmes. He took off his beggar's ⑦cloak. He was wearing his usual clothes underneath. 'We must hurry,' he said. Holmes quickly cleaned his face with a ⑧handkerchief and we set off to a nearby house. Holmes knocked on the door. A young man opened it.

'Mr. Holmes. The Prince of Hanover is expecting you,' said the man. He led us into the living room. In the room there was a tall man wearing a ⑨military uniform. A beautiful young lady was sitting by the fire reading a book. The man turned as we entered and said, 'So, at last I meet the great Sherlock Holmes. And you must be Dr Watson. Welcome.

I am sure you are wasting your time. There are no problems here.'

⑩'On the contrary,' replied Holmes. 'You are unaware of what is happening to you. I'm sure your friend the countess will agree with me.' We all turned to look at the young woman sitting by the fire. She put down her book slowly, smiled and looked at us.

The opening of the Sherlock Holmes Museum to the public on March 27, 1990, was an event that should have happened several decades ago. Baker Street is, after all, one of the world’s most famous streets because of its long association with the great detective.
Thousands of people all over the world write to Sherlock Holmes, they form clubs and societies in his honor, and they celebrate his anniversaries. Now it is also possible to see where and how he lived in Victorian times!
Here visitors will recognize familiar objects mentioned in the stories. You can take as many photographs as you want (the maid will be pleased to assist) and when you are ready to leave, a ride home in a horse-drawn carriage will complete your 19th century experience!
Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson lived at 221b Baker Street from about 1881 to 1904. Apartment 221b was on the first floor of a lodging house, which they rented from a Mrs Hudson. The famous study that Holmes and his friend Dr Watson shared for almost 25 years is on the first floor overlooking Baker Street.
We know from Doctor Watson’s descriptions that their sitting room overlooking Baker Street was “illuminated(照明、照亮) by two broad windows” and that it was quite small.
Doctor Watson’s bedroom was on the second floor next to Mrs Hudson’s room and it overlooked an open yard at the back of the house. These rooms are used today for exhibits, where center stage is taken by a magnificant bronze bust(半身像)of Mr Holmes. Visitors can browse through literature, paintings, photographs and newspapers of the period. Memorabilia（紀念品） from the adventures and a selection of letters written to and from Mr Holmes are also on display.
The museum’s large and attractive souvenir shop is located on the ground floor. Here you will find a unique collection of gifts, objects of art, figures, busts, prints, books, playing cards, T-shirts, －novelties of every description available exclusively to museum visitors.
