"No mention of that local hunt, Watson," said Holmes with a mischievous smile, "but a country doctor, as you very astutely observed.
「地元の狩猟については何も書かれていませんね、ワトスン」とホームズはいたずらっぽい笑みを浮かべて言った。「しかし、あなたが実に鋭く指摘したように、田舎の医者であることは間違いない。
I think that I am fairly justified in my inferences.
私の推論はかなり正当であると思います。
As to the adjectives, I said, if I remember right, amiable, unambitious, and absent-minded.
形容詞については、私が正しく覚えているならば、愛想がよく、野心がなく、そして上の空だと言いました。
It is my experience that it is only an amiable man in this world who receives testimonials, only an unambitious one who abandons a London career for the country, and only an absent-minded one who leaves his stick and not his visiting-card after waiting an hour in your room."
私の経験によれば、この世で推薦状をもらえるのは愛想のよい人間だけであり、ロンドンでの出世を捨てて田舎へ行くのは野心のない人間だけであり、あなたの部屋で一時間待った後に名刺ではなく杖を置いていくのは上の空の人間だけなのです。」
"And the dog?"
「そして犬は？」
"Has been in the habit of carrying this stick behind his master.
「この杖を主人の後ろで運ぶ習慣があったのです。
Being a heavy stick the dog has held it tightly by the middle, and the marks of his teeth are very plainly visible.
杖が重いので、犬は真ん中をしっかりくわえており、歯の跡がはっきりと見えます。
The dog's jaw, as shown in the space between these marks, is too broad in my opinion for a terrier and not broad enough for a mastiff.
これらの跡の間隔から示される犬の顎は、私の意見ではテリアには広すぎ、マスティフには狭すぎます。
It may have been—yes, by Jove, it _is_ a curly-haired spaniel.
それはおそらく——そう、まさに、これは巻き毛のスパニエルです。
