Summary 4 : Nov 22

The story is about the missing three quarters. It began on Baker Street 7/8years ago. His note taking skills are really good. They get a very mysterious telegram from a man named Overton. Overton soon appears and introduces himself as Cyril Overton from Cambridge.

Cyril and Godfrey are rugby players for Cambridge and that without Godfrey the team is will lose their match against Oxford the next day. Cyril is also the team captain. Holmes is still clueless, and Cyril can't believe that anyone can be this dumb about sports. Cyril backtracks and gives a better explanation of himself. The team came to London yesterday for their match with Oxford. Cyril checked on his teammates before bed and said Godfrey seemed sick and distracted, so he told him to get some rest.

They come across a dead young woman on a sickbed and a grief stricken young man, who says he's Godfrey Staunton. Armstrong comes in and is really mad. The three men go outside, leaving Godfrey in peace. Holmes explains that he only wants to help Godfrey and won't publicize any details that are private. Armstrong admits he misjudged Holmes's character and tells the truth.

The young woman upstairs is Mrs. Staunton, Godfrey's secret wife. She was the daughter of his landlady and they fell in love. But they had to marry in secret because of crazy Lord Mount-James would disinherit Godfrey if he found out that his nephew married a lower-class girl. The wife became ill, and Dr. Armstrong was helping her and Godfrey. He sent word that she was dying, and Godfrey ran off to be with her. The mystery man he left with that night was the girl's father. Holmes agrees to keep this all a secret, and he and Watson leave.
 
THE END :)
