One day last winter I went to see Sherlock Holmes. I remember the date. It was December 27. Holmes was sitting in a comfortable chair, looking at an old hat.

'Are you busy. Holmes?' I said.

'Not at all, Watson?’ he answered. 'I'm glad to see you. You know Captain Peterson. He brought me this hat and chicken. Peterson is eating the chicken today. I'll tell you the story.'

‘Two days ago Peterson was walking along Goodge Street. He had been to a party which finished at three o'clock in the morning. By the light of the street lamps he saw a tall man in front of him, carrying a chicken under his arm. Suddenly two men came out of the shadows, stopped the tall man and a quarrel started. One of the men hit the tall man and his hat fell to the ground. The tall man tried to hit the man with his stick but missed him and broke a shop window. Captain Peterson rushed forward to help the tall man. He saw Peterson, shouted 'Police' and ran down the street. The other two men followed him. A hat and a chicken were left on the ground.'

'Why didn't he gave them to the tall man?' I asked.

'Because the tall man had disappeared, Watson. But there was a card on the chicken's leg which said, 'For Mrs. Henry Baker'. The name Henry Baker is also inside the hat. Peterson wanted to find the man, but there are hundreds of Henry Bakers in London.'

'So what did he do?'

'He brought the hat and the chicken to me,' said Holmes. 'He knows that these little problems interest me. I kept the chicken until today, but I couldn't keep it any longer. Peterson is eating it now.'

From 'The Blue Diamond” by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
