1970

As quick as lightning the man's head shot forward and his neck stretched out until the top of the head, where it was flat, struck the Scarecrow in the middle and sent him tumbling, over and over, down the hill. Almost as quickly as it came the head went back to the body, and the man laughed harshly as he said, "It isn't as easy as you think! A chorus of boisterous laughter came from the other rocks, and Dorothy saw hundreds of the armless Hammer-Heads upon the hillside, one behind every rock.

The Lion became quite angry at the laughter caused by the Scarecrow's He Went That Way - Hershel Sutton & The Ozark Ramblers - He Went That Way (Vinyl), and giving a loud roar that echoed like thunder, he dashed up the hill. Again a head shot swiftly out, and the great Lion went rolling down the hill as if he had been struck by a cannon ball.

Dorothy ran down and helped the Scarecrow to his feet, and the Lion came up to her, feeling rather bruised and sore, and said, "It is useless to fight people with shooting heads; no one can withstand them. The Monkeys were as prompt as ever, and in a few moments the entire band stood before her.

As they passed over the hill the Hammer-Heads yelled with vexation, and shot their heads high in the air, but they could not reach the Winged Monkeys, which carried Dorothy and her comrades He Went That Way - Hershel Sutton & The Ozark Ramblers - He Went That Way (Vinyl) over the hill and set them down in the beautiful country of the Quadlings.

The country of the Quadlings seemed rich and happy. There was field upon field of ripening grain, with well-paved roads running between, and pretty rippling brooks with strong bridges across them. The fences and houses and bridges were all painted bright red, just as they had been painted yellow in the country of the Winkies and blue in the country of the Munchkins.

The Quadlings themselves, who were short and fat and looked chubby and good-natured, were dressed all in red, which showed bright against the green grass and the yellowing grain. The Monkeys had He Went That Way - Hershel Sutton & The Ozark Ramblers - He Went That Way (Vinyl) them down near a farmhouse, and the four travelers walked up to it and knocked at the door. Watson and Holmes left, Holmes angrily muttering about how Rance was a fool and missed that piece of luck.

Watson wondered aloud why the man would hang around the house where the murder was committed, and Holmes clarified that it was because he had come back for the ring.

He then thanked Watson for encouraging him to follow up this "study in scarlet;" he deemed it such because "there's the scarlet thread of murder running through the colorless skein of life, and our duty is to unravel it, and isolate it, and expose every inch of it.

He marvels at how Holmes deduced certain characteristics about the murderer's age and height. Holmes is clearly somewhat of a prideful man, as he puffs up with satisfaction when Watson lauds him for his ability to bring "detection as near an exact science as it ever will be brought in this world" One interesting element in this chapter is the allusion to Socialism and secret societies. Doyle scholar Owen Dudley Edwards sees these works as mostly intended to be taken seriously, although the jocose tone of the tales made them much more satirical than sober.

There had been a Socialists demonstration about unemployment in Trafalgar Square on February 8th, that resulted in broken windows and minor vandalism of wealthy shops and residences after its dispersal; the leaders were British and Irish citizens. This event was no doubt an impetus for the writing of the aforementioned stories and their resulting popularity. One of the most memorable and perfectly-phrased lines in the novel concludes this chapter —"there's the scarlet thread of murder running through the colorless skein of life, and our duty is to unravel it, and isolate it, and expose every inch of it" The title of this short novel was originally A Tangled Skein.

A final point to discuss is the relationship between Holmes and Watson. It has been pointed out multiple times in the literature that the two men occupy two different but complementary modes of operation- mind and body.

Those two terms may be slightly lacking, but there is no denying that Holmes represents the apotheosis of the mind in his pure rationality and reasoning abilities, whereas Watson is an earthier, normal, and grounded individual.

Watson is the interpreter of Holmes and is the everyman. While Watson is also smart and rational, he is not conspicuously unstable, arrogant, or weird. Of course, while it is easy to see Holmes and Watson as being very different men who have a very successful relationship together because of their complementary traits, it is also quite possible that they are such a compelling and successful duo because together they represent one single personality.

Holmes lives on the border between rationality and irrationality and crime and morality. He risks losing himself in this strange borderland.

Watson thus is the other half of Holmes. According to scholar Frank McConnell, Holmes and Watson are this single personality; they are a "personality invented —one can almost say 'engineered' —to survive the social and intellectual travails of the middle class at the beginning of the 20th century.

When he returned to his home he saw that two young men were in his sitting room, He Went That Way - Hershel Sutton & The Ozark Ramblers - He Went That Way (Vinyl). One had a long pale face and the other was "a bull-necked youth with coarse, bloated features.

In part 2 chapter 4. Holmes listened to Watson and then told him that he was in fact the author of the article and that his job was a "consulting detective.
