SUMMARY
Entering the office and showing Holmes and Watson an 18th century manuscript, Dr. James Mortimer tells the myth of Hugo Baskerville. Hugo captured and imprisoned a young country girl at his estate in Devonshire. He then became the victim of a hound of hell as he chased her along the lonesome moors late one night. Ever since that day, James Mortimer reports, the Baskerville family has been haunted by a mysterious and supernatural black hound. The recent death of Sir Charles Baskerville has brought back suspicions and fears. The next of kin, Holmes and Watson find out, has arrived in London to take up his post at Baskerville Hall, but he has already been intimidated by an anonymous warning note and the theft of a shoe.
The duo quickly discovers that Sir Henry Baskerville is being followed in London by a mysterious bearded stranger, and they speculate as to whether the mystery man is a friend or an enemy. Holmes, however, says he is too busy in London to accompany Mortimer and Sir Henry to Devonshire to investigate the bottom of the case, so he sends Dr. Watson to be his eyes and ears, asking him to report back regularly.
Arriving in Devonshire, Watson discovers a state of emergency, with armed guards on the lookout for an escaped prisoner wandering the moors. He meets potential suspects in Mr. Barrymore and Mrs. Barrymore, Mr. Jack Stapleton and his sister Beryl, Baskerville neighbours.

To begin with everything is going fine and things are going on the same, as they would do every other day. The husband has just got home from work and his wife asks him how his day has been 'Hullo darling' she says and then gets him a drink. The fact it is just like every other day shows in the relaxed atmosphere, which is described as 'a blissful time of day' The atmosphere also seams to be warm and cosy as she was 'luxuriating in his company' Where as in the Speckled Band the setting is really as you would expected a murder mystery setting to be. This shows as at the start there is an air of panic as Watson and Holmes have been 'knocked up' as 'a young lady had arrived in a considerable state of excitement' The murder setting is also typical as it is in a large country manor, owned by the well-known Surry Family of the Roylotts of Stoke Moran.
1A. In the event that Peter is terminating his agency relationship with Alice he should do so in line with the agency contract that first established their relationship. Peter reserves the right to retract his agency relationship with Alice any time but he will be held liable for damages because his decision amounts to violation of the contract that he fashioned with Alice. Peter is supposed to pay Alice $1,080 (6% of $18,000) as this is the amount that the Principal would have earned if he had proceeded with the contract. This serves to indemnify Alice for the commission she was deprived by Peter’s action to rescind the contract without issuing any notice thus compensating the agent for her efforts and for specific performance.

The juncture of Islamic and American cultural movements has found a home in the various Sufi traditions that prevalent in the Western world. These subsequent artistic cultural traditions and rituals make Sufism the most culturally dominant and pervasive form of Islam in modern day Western culture – beating out the two largest internationally prevailing sects of orthodox Islam (Sunnism) and Shia’ism. In the following paper, I will assert that there are two primary spheres of Sufi tradition that transcend American society. The first being the sphere of culture, which includes but is not limited to, dance, music, poetry, arts, education, psychology and philosophical paradigms. The second sphere encompasses the influence of religious sites: mosques and tomb shrines.

However, nowadays, the marketing mix increasingly includes several other Ps like Packaging, Positioning, People and even Politics as vital mix elements.”
I never imagined that after travelling through such tranquil and heavenly landscape we would be greeted upon arrival by a barrage of soldiers. Holmes, at this point my heart wept for Sir Henry because he had expressed eagerness at visiting the moor, and I could only imagine how he must have been feeling after arriving at this most inappropriate time. As we travelled by horse drawn carriage to the estate, our questions were answered by a foot soldier that informed us that a convicted murderer, who goes by the name of Selden, had escaped from prison. Holmes it baffles me how a town can claim to be safe if it cannot keep its criminals where they belong,-in jail.

... was “I don’t believe in such nonsense.” However they were eventually convinced and became frightened as a result. The hound symbolizes the fear that the characters felt throughout the story, and it haunted the Baskerville family for generations. However, it was shot down in the end. Holmes states in page 112 “We’ve laid the family ghost once and forever.” This creates a moment of relief within the characters as well as within the reader due to the fact that the hound was exterminated, and the “Curse of the Baskervilles” was no more.
The Hound of the Baskervilles by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, continues the curse of the Baskervilles with the legend of the hound. Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson must solve the mystery before the Baskerville family comes to an end. Therefore the author explains the theme of not being ruled by fear through characters dying, research being affected, and characters changing throughout the novel.
Mr. Holder went to Mr. Holmes in a hysterical manner. He was calmed down and started to tell him his mystery. Then Holmes asked him whether any one visits them, no one replied Holder except for Arthur’s friend George Burnwell. He added that Mary does not go out of the house, which seemed strange for a young lady but her uncle thought of her as a pleasant and quite girl, and thought of his son of being guilty.
