Oh, I die, Horatio;

So tell him, with the occurrents, more and less,
Which have solicited. The rest is silence. |

I write these few lines through the
courtesy of Mr.
Moriarty, who
awaits my convenience for the final discussion of those questions which
lie between us. He has been giving me a sketch of the methods by which
he avoided the English police and kept himself informed of our
movements.
They certainly confirm the very high opinion which I had formed of his
abilities. I am pleased to think that I shall be able to free
society
from any further effects of his presence, though I fear that it is at a
cost which will give pain to my friends, and especially, my dear
Watson,
to you. I have already explained to you, however, that my career
had in any case reached its crisis, and that no possible conclusion to
it could be more congenial to me than this. Indeed, if I may make
a full confession to you, I was quite convinced that the letter from
Meiringen
was a hoax, and I allowed you to depart on that errand under the
persuasion
that some development of this sort would follow. Tell Inspector
Patterson
that the papers which he needs to convict the gang are in pigeonhole
M.,
done up in a blue envelope and inscribed "Moriarty." I made every
disposition
of my property before leaving England and handed it to my brother
Mycroft.
Pray give my greetings to Mrs. Watson, and believe me to be, my dear
fellow
Very sincerely yours,
SHERLOCK HOLMES.
