part one i visited my friend sherlock holmes on the second morning of christmas. when i arrived he was sitting in front of the fire, wearing his purple dressing-gown. next to the sofa was a wooden chair, and on the chair was a dirty old hat. a magnifying glass and a forceps were on the chair, so the hat was probably part of one of holmes' investigations. 'you are busy,' i said. 'perhaps i interrupt you.' 'not at all,' he replied, and indicated the hat. 'the problem is very simple, but it is still interesting and maybe even instructive.' i sat down in an armchair and warmed my hands in front of the fire because it was very cold outside. 'i imagine,' i said, 'that this hat is connected with a terrible crime.' 'no, no. no crime,' said sherlock holmes, laughing. 'it is only one of those strange things that …

h the hat and the goose.' 'of course, peterson then returned the goose to its owner,' i said. 'no,' replied holmes, 'that is the problem. it is true that "for mrs henry baker" was written on a small card attached to the leg of the goose, and that the initials "h.b." are written on the lining of the hat. but there are thousands of bakers and hundreds of henry bakers in london.' 'what, then, did peterson do?' 'he brought both the goose and the hat to me on christmas morning, because he knows that i am interested in even the smallest problems. i kept the goose until this morning and then i gave it to peterson to cook for dinner.' 'did the man who lost the goose put a notice in the newspaper?' 'no.' 'then how can you discover who he is?' i asked. 'from his hat,' replied holmes. 'you …

'you are certainly joking, holmes.' 'not at all. don't you understand how i inferred these things?' 'i am certain that i am very stupid,' i replied, 'but i can't follow your reasoning. for example, how did you deduce that this man was an intellectual?' to answer me holmes put the hat on his head. the hat was too big for him and covered his eyes. 'it's a question of volume,' said holmes. 'if a man has such a big brain, he must have something in it.' 'how do you know he has less money now than in the past?' 'this kind of hat first came out …

he streets. this means that the hat is kept inside the house most of the time, and that he doesn't go out very often. also you can see the sweat stain on the inside of the hat, which means he perspired a lot. a man who perspires so much can't be in the best of training.' 'but his wife - you said that she stopped loving him.' 'this hat has not been brushed for weeks. when a man's wife lets him go out in such bad condition it means that she doesn't love him anymore.' 'but he could be a bachelor,' i said. 'no, he was bringing the goose to make peace with his wife. do you remember the card on its leg?' 'you have an answer for everything. but how did you deduce that he doesn't have gas lighting in his house?' 'well, if you saw one or two …

'hum! so much for 1 the police report,' said holmes throwing the paper on a chair. 'you see, watson, our little deductions about the hat have become much more important …
