The Red Headed League

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are two magnificent and cunning fictional detectives, based out of London, England. They solved many cases with many more to come. None of the cases stumped Sherlock Holmes for a second, as usual he knew what was going on the second he got the case. Given time he was able to solve the case of The Red Headed League. This was no out of the ordinary case for the Detective Duo by any stretch of the imagination.
Jabez Wilson a man who owned a pawnshop assigned the Case of the Red Headed League to Holmes and Watson one fine day. And of course the two were ready for anything anyone could throw at them. Jabez started out telling them that his employee Vincent Spaulding had given him the classifieds concerning a well known job that would pay 4 pounds to any red headed man that was fit for it. In the long run Jabez Wilson got the job and after eight weeks of going to this job he found out that it had closed without anyone notifying him.

Needless to say the detectives, inspector, and banker served justice that night by finding that the two men who changed names frequently were in charge of the Red Headed League in order to get Jabez from the pawnshop while they dug. They then closed the league when they were finished. As you can tell the detectives were geniuses because they knew that once the league was closed the tunnel must have been finished and the two men were planning on leaving on a Saturday night before the bank were to open on Monday. This was learned by the two detectives that are well known to this day as Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson.

The Detectives told him that they would have the case done by Monday and it being a Saturday only left them with roughly a day and a half to work. So the two went to Holmes house while he was left in silence for fifty minutes smoking his pipe with his nose to his knees curled up in his chair to ponder the case.
