9 Write the summary The story is about the case of Miss Mary
of the book Sutherland. She is engaged to Hosmer Angel who
has recently disappeared. Sherlock Holmes'
detective powers are barely challenged as this turns
1
out to be quite an elementary case for him, much as
it puzzles Watson.

The climax of the sad relationship comes when Mr.


Angel abandons Miss Sutherland at the altar on
their wedding day.

Holmes, observing all these things, Angel's


description, and the fact that he only seems to meet
with Miss Sutherland while her young stepfather,
James Windibank, is out of the country on business,
reaches a conclusion quite quickly. A typewritten
letter confirms his belief without a doubt. Only one
person could have gained by this: Mr. James
Windibank. Holmes concludes "Angel" had
"disappeared" by simply going out the other side of
a four-wheeler cab.

After solving the mystery, Holmes chooses not to


tell his client the solution, since "If I tell her she will
not believe me. You may remember the old Persian
saying, 'There is danger for him who taketh the tiger
cub, and danger also for whoso snatches a delusion
from a woman.' There is as much sense in Hafiz as
in Horace, and as much knowledge of the world."
Holmes had earlier advised his client to forget "Mr.
Angel", but Miss Sutherland refused to take
Holmes' advice and vowed to remain faithful to
"Angel" until he reappears – for at least ten years.

Holmes predicts Windibank will continue a career


in crime and end up on the gallows.
