A woman in mourning comes to Baker Street with a dead man's torn notebook page in her muff. Her brother was found at the foot of his own cellar stairs with his neck broken, and the coroner called it misadventure. She has come to say that somebody is digging under her house at night. The county has told the same story for forty years. Smuggler's gold, hidden under the foundations before the mortar set. Four generations have lifted the cellar flags looking for it, and not one shilling has ever come up. Her brother stopped looking in the cellar last summer. Two days before he died, a company nobody has heard of offered twice what the house is worth for the ground beneath it. 🔎 Two clues are shown plainly before the reveal. The attentive listener can solve this one. ☕ If you would like to keep the lamp lit, the tin is in the links above. 🎙️ Also on Spotify, read exactly the same way.
