said. ‘ these things are no use to me. All be very happy to take the other goose. Thank you very much. Good said Holmes’. Well
here’s your had and your goose . by the way , the first goose was
very delicious. Where did you buy it?’ well replied henry Baker, I got it from Mr Windigate, land – lord of the alpha inn, near the british Museum. Mr
Windigate ran a “ goose club “ for his customers.’ What’s a goose club? I
asked. Well replied henry Baker, a goose
is very expensive, you know. And
a goose club is a way of saving money to buy
a goose at chritsmas. Each member of the goose club paid Mr Windigate a
vew fance every week. Mr Windigate
collected the money week by week. By christmas, there was enough money
to buy a goose for everybody in the
club. Mr Windigate bought the Geese. So each member of the club had a goose to
eat on christmas day.’ When Henry Baker
had gone, holmes said , well Watson, Henry Baker know nothing about the blue Carbuncle. He
wasn’t interested in the goose he lost. He only wanted a goose to eat. He was happy to take this other
goose. So what do we do now? I
asked. Henry baker told us his goose came form Mr Windigate of the Alpha
inn,’ Holmes replied. “ now we must go
and see Mr Windigate. We must ask him some question abaout this goose. Come
