d at their respective homes in the township of Leatherhead and because of the lack of a murder weapon and apparent motive the local police are completely baffled they have called upon Scotland Yard for assistance and it appears that the same detective Inspector Giles Lestrade has taken an interest in the case and will be going to the scene this morning so me to be on our way say to Watson drop paper he's not going to do it say to Watson drop Chronicle yeah drop Chronicle and these drop the Daily
