The sudden death of Sir Charles Baskerville made everybody sad as he was a nice and respected man and had made many friends in Dartmoor during the two years he was at Baskerville Hall.

Mr Barrymore, the butler(男管家), said that Sir Charles had been sad and stressed these days.　 He told Barrymore that he was planning to return to London the next day. Then, he went for his usual evening walk. He did not return, and at midnight, Barrymore went to look for him. He followed Sir Charles’s footprints along the path until he found his master’s body lying near the end of it.

A man called Murphy was on the moor at the time and said that he heard shouting, but he was drunk at the time and no one would believe what he said.

The report said that Sir Charles had a weak heart and died of a heart attack. And this made it clear that the stories of a huge hound should not be believed.

“Do you know anything more than what is in the newspapers?” said Holmes when Dr. Mortimer had finished.

“Yes indeed. Sir Charles would never go out onto the moor at night because he was in fear of being attacked. He asked me several times whether I had heard the hound howling at night, but I never had. I was there within an hour when he died. I went over to see his body. He lay face down on the ground with his arms out and his fingers dug into the ground. At the inquest, Barrymore said that he saw nothing else, but I did. I saw footprints, Mr Holmes.”

“Footprints?” said Holmes, leaning forward. “A man’s or a woman’s?”

Mortimer looked at us for a moment before replying. “Mr.Holmes, they were the footprints of a huge hound!”

1.What can we know about Charles Baskerville?

A.He had been in a good mood for a few days.

B.He was going back to London the next day.

C.He usually took a walk with Barrymore at night.

D.He could not get along with others and had few friends.
