:19:00
Unless I'm
greatly mistaken,

:19:01
our friend Pettibone,
:19:03
did not carry two
pages of legal paper

:19:05
when he left this room.
:19:07
I wouldn't be
too sure Holmes.

:19:08
Ashes are
deceptive you know?

:19:10
On the contrary
my dear Watson.

:19:12
The rag used on
artificial documents

:19:15
leads an ash that
is unmistakable.

:19:17
Oh do stop pacing!
:19:19
I'm not pacing.
:19:20
I haven't moved an inch.
:19:21
I'm sorry old
fellow, my error.

:19:28
Must be Mrs. Pettibone,
:19:29
heavy woman light
on her feet.

:19:31
Doesn't follow.
:19:33
Our friend seems to be
quite a camera enthusiast.

:19:35
What's this?
:19:37
Cook F15, that's a
very fast lens

:19:40
F35,
:19:43
and a (unintelligible).
:19:46
Copying set up.
:19:48
American match folders.
:19:49
That's right, U.S.A.
:19:52
Now why would Pettibone
:19:53
want American match
folders in his work?

:19:57
And a microscope,
:19:58
most interesting.
:19:59
What's this?
:20:04
Watson this microscope
:20:06
was last used for
examining microfilm.

:20:09
I'm beginning to
see the pattern.

:20:11
It stopped now.
:20:13
Did you know
that the letters

:20:14
of our soldiers overseas
:20:15
are being
photographed on microfilm

:20:17
so that one carrier pigeon
:20:18
can carry the equivalent
of 18,000 letters?

:20:20
Oh really?
:20:21
We had a carrier
pigeon in the last war.

:20:23
Back in 1915 belonging to
the Brigade Signal Corp.

:20:25
Did you?
:20:26
Yeah, the poor bird kept
flying round and round

:20:29
in circles all day long.
:20:30
Found out later on
that it was cross-eyed.

:20:32
Tragic thing.
:20:35
Where are you going, huh?
:20:40
Oh dark room huh?
:20:43
This is what I
was looking for.

:20:45
This projector magnifies
tremendously

:20:47
anything placed
on the slide

:20:49
like this piece
of microfilm.

:20:55
Understand?
:20:56
Can't say I do
exactly, no.

:20:57
Wait a minute.
