The Curse of the Baskervilles
바스커빌 가의 저주
"I have in my pocket a manuscript," said Dr. James Mortimer.
"제 주머니 안에 원고가 있습니다," 라고 제임스 모티머 박사가 말했다.
"I observed it as you entered the room," said Holmes.
"당신이 방에 들어올 때 그것을 보았습니다," 라고 홈즈가 말했다.
"It is an old manuscript."
"그것은 오래된 원고입니다."
"Early eighteenth century, unless it is a forgery."
"위조품이 아니라면, 18세기 초의 것이군요."
"How can you say that, sir?"
"어떻게 그것을 알 수 있습니까, 선생님?"
"You have presented an inch or two of it to my examination all the time that you have been talking. It would be a poor expert who could not give the date of a document within a decade or so. You may possibly have read my little monograph upon the subject. I put that at 1730."
"당신이 말하는 내내 그것의 한두 인치를 제가 볼 수 있도록 내보이셨습니다. 문서의 연대를 10년 정도의 범위 안에서 파악하지 못하는 전문가는 형편없는 전문가일 것입니다. 아마도 이 주제에 관한 제 소논문을 읽으셨을 수도 있겠군요. 저는 그것을 1730년으로 봅니다."
"The exact date is 1742." Dr. Mortimer drew it from his breast-pocket. "This family paper was committed to my care by Sir Charles Baskerville, whose sudden and tragic death some three months ago created so much excitement in Devonshire. I may say that I was his personal friend as well as his medical attendant. He was a strong-minded man, sir, shrewd, practical, and as unimaginative as I am myself. Yet he took this document very seriously, and his mind was prepared for just such an end as did eventually overtake him."
"정확한 날짜는 1742년입니다." 모티머 박사는 그것을 가슴 주머니에서 꺼냈다. "이 가문의 문서는 찰스 바스커빌 경께서 제 보관에 맡기신 것입니다. 그분은 약 3개월 전에 갑작스럽고 비극적인 죽음을 맞이하셨으며, 그 사건은 데번셔에 큰 충격을 불러일으켰습니다. 저는 그분의 주치의이기도 했지만 개인적인 친구이기도 했습니다. 그분은 의지가 강한 분이셨습니다, 선생님. 영리하고 실용적이며, 저 자신만큼이나 상상력이 부족한 분이셨죠. 그럼에도 불구하고 그분은 이 문서를 매우 심각하게 받아들이셨고, 결국 그분에게 닥친 바로 그런 최후에 대해 마음의 준비가 되어 있으셨습니다."
Holmes stretched out his hand for the manuscript and flattened it upon his knee. "You will observe, Watson, the alternative use of the long _s_ and the short. It is one of several indications which enabled me to fix the date.
홈즈는 원고를 향해 손을 뻗어 무릎 위에 펼쳤다. "왓슨, 긴 s자와 짧은 s자가 교대로 사용된 것을 보실 겁니다. 이것이 제가 연대를 확정할 수 있게 해준 여러 단서 중 하나입니다.
