TEXTE :"Dr. Watson, Mr Sherlock Holmes," said Stamford, introducing us. "How are you?" he said cordially, gripping my hand with a strength for which I should hardly have given him credit. "You have been in Afghanistan, I perceive." "How on earth did you know that?" I asked in astonishment". "Never mind," said he, chuckling to himself. "The question now is about haemoglobin. No doubt you see the significance of this discovery of mine?" "It is interesting chemically, no doubt," I answe- red, "but practically-" "Why, man, it is the most practical medico-legal discovery for years. Don't you see that it gives us an infallible test for blood stains? Come over here now!" He seized me by the coat-sleeve in his and drew me over to the table at which he had been working. "Let us have some fresh eagerness, 25 blood," he said, digging a long bodkin into his finger, and drawing off the resulting drop of blood in a chemical pipette. "Now, I add this small quan- tity of blood to a litre of water. You perceive that the resulting mixture has the appearance of pure water. The proportion of blood cannot be more than one in a million. I have no doubt, however, that we shall be able to obtain the characteristic reaction." As he spoke, he threw into a vessel a 20 few white crystals, and then added some drops of a transparent fluid. In an instant the contents assumed a dull mahogany colour, and a brownish dust was precipitated to the bottom of the glass jar. "Ha! Ha!" he cried, clapping his hands, and 35 looking as delighted as a child with a new toy. "What do you think of that?" Had this test been invented, there are hundreds of men now walk- ing the earth who would long ago have paid the penalty of their crimes." A Study in Scarlet, Arthur Conan Doyle, 1887.
