11 劳拉·莱昂丝 Laura Lyons

I told Sir Henry about Laura Lyons,and that I wanted to speak to her as soon as possible.Then I went to her house in Newtown.
A maid took me into the sitting room,where a very pretty lady with dark hair was working at a typewriter.I told her who I was,and that I had met her father.
‘I have no contact with my father,'she said.' He gave me no help when I was in trouble.Sir Charles Baskerville and some other kind people helped me when I was poor and hungry.'
‘It is about Sir Charles that I have come to see you,'I said.'I want to know if you ever wrote to him and asked him to meet you.'
She looked very,angry,and her face went white.
‘What a question!'she said.'What right have you to ask me about my private life?But the answer is 搉o”.'
‘Surely you are not remembering clearly,'I said.'I think you wrote to him on the day that he died.And your letter said: 揚lease,please,burn this letter,and be at the gate by ten o'clock.”'
For a moment I thought she was going to faint.Then she said in a low oice:'I asked Sir Charles to tell nobdy.'
‘You must not think that Sir Charles spoke to anyone about you,'I said.' He put the letter on the fire,but not all of it was burnt.Now,did you write that letter to him?'
‘Yes,'she said.'Why should I be ashamed of writing to him?I wanted him to help me.I learned that he was going to London early on the following day,so I asked him to meet me before he went.I could not go to the Hall earlier that day.'
‘But why did you ask him to meet you in the garden instead of in the house?'I asked.
‘Do you think it would be sensible for a woman to go at that time of night into the house of an unmarried man?'she asked.
‘Well,what happened when you got there?'I asked.
‘I didn't go,'she replied.
‘Mrs Lyons!'
‘I tell you I did not go.Something happened that stopped me from going.I can't tell you what it was.'
‘Mrs Lyons,' I said.' If you did not see Sir Charles,you must tell me why.If you do not,it will look very bad for you if I have to go to the police with this new piece of information about the letter.'
Mrs Lyons thought for a moment,and then she said:' I see that I must tell you.Perhaps you know that I married a man who was very cruel to me.I hate him and I wanted to get a divorce.But a divorce is expensive,and I had no money.I thought that if Sir Charles heard my sad story,he would help me to get a divorce.'
‘Then why didn't you go to see Sir Charles?'I asked her.
‘Because I got help from someone else,'she said.
‘Why didn't you write to Sir Charles and tell him?'
‘ I was going to,but I saw in the newspaper the next morn ing that he had died.'
I asked Mrs Lyons a number of other questions,but she did not change her story,whatever I asked her.I was sure that she was telling the truth.I could check two important parts of the story.If they were right,there could be no doubt that she was telling the truth.I could check that she had begun to get her divorce at about the time of Sir Charles' death.I could also check that she had not been to Baskerville Hall on the night of Sir Charles' death.
But I was not sure that she had told me the whole truth.Why had she nearly fainted when I had told her about the let ter? That was not completely explained by the story she had told me.
I had discovered all I could for the moment.I left her,and went to search for more information in a different place.

我告诉了亨利爵士关于劳拉·莱昂丝的事情，还说我想尽快与她谈一谈。此后我便到纽顿去了她家。
一位女仆将我带进了起居室，一位非常漂亮的黑发女士正坐在打字机前工作。我告诉了她我是谁，还说我曾见过她父亲。

她看上去十分愤怒，她的面孔还变得苍白。

我一度以为她就要晕厥了。接着，她低声说道：撐以肭蟛槎咕羰坎灰嫠呷魏稳说摹?rdquo;

莱昂丝太太斟酌了片刻，接着说道：撐铱蠢吹酶嫠吣恕Ｄ残碇牢壹薷艘桓龆晕曳浅２锌岬哪凶印Ｎ液匏以胗胨牖椤？墒抢牖槭亲汗蟮氖虑椋矣置挥惺裁辞Ｎ业笔本醯茫遣槎咕羰刻搅宋夷潜业墓适碌幕埃突岚镏依牖椤?rdquo;

我问了莱昂丝太太许多别的问题，但是她不管我怎么问都不肯改口。我敢保证她讲了实话。我可以验证一下她的叙述中关键的两点。如果这两处正确无误，那么无疑她是在讲真话。我可以调查一下，看看她在查尔斯爵士逝去之时是否真的开始为离婚而忙乎着。我还可以调查一下，看看她是否在查尔斯爵士逝去的当晚真的没去巴斯克维尔庄园。
但是我不敢肯定她是否已告诉了我全部实情。当我告诉她关于这封信的事情时她为何几乎要晕了过去呢？这点由她告诉我的故事不能完全解释得通。
目前我已竭尽全力去发现探索了。我离开了她，到一个与之有别的地方搜寻更多的信息去了。
