Sir Charles was going to London on the next day,and Barrymore,his butler,was packing his suitcases.By mid- night Barrymore was worried that Sir Charles had not re- turned,so he went to look for him.He found the door of the Hall open.The day had been rainy and wet so Barry- more saw the prints left by Sir Charles'shoes as he had walked down the Alley.Half way down the Alley is a gate,which leads to the moor.There were signs that Sir Charles had stood there for some time.Barrymore fol- lowed the footprints to the far end of the Alley.And there he found Sir Charles'body.

查尔斯爵士次日将去伦敦,他的总管白瑞摩当时正在为他准备行装。午夜时分,白瑞摩因查尔斯爵士还未回来而焦虑不安,因此便去找他。他发现庄园的门还开着。那天的天气很潮湿,因此白瑞摩看到了查尔斯爵士沿着那条小道走时留下的脚印。在小道的中途有一个栅门,它通向沼地。有种种迹象说明查尔斯爵士曾在此站过一会儿。白瑞摩循着足迹走到了小道的尽头。而且就在那儿他发现了查尔斯爵士的尸体。
Barrymore reported something interesting about the footprints.He said that they changed between the moor gate and the end of the Alley.As far as the moor gate there was a whole footprint for each of Sir Charles'steps.After he passed the gate,only toe prints could be seen.Barrymore thought that Sir Charles had walked on his toes.
白瑞摩报告了一件有关脚印的有趣的事情。他说,脚印在栅门和小道的尽头之间变样了。到栅门为止,查尔斯爵士的每个脚印都是完整的。但过了栅门之后,则只能看到他脚趾的印记了。白瑞摩以为查尔斯爵士曾用脚尖走过。
A man called Murphy,who buys and sells horses,was not far away at the time of Sir Charles'death.He had been drinking a lot of beer,but he says he heard cries.He is not sure where they came from.
一位名叫摩菲的马贩子在查尔斯爵士死时正在距出事地点不远之处。他当时已喝了许多啤酒,但是他说他那时曾听到呼喊声。他不清楚呼喊声来自何方。
Dr Mortimer was called to look at Sir Charles'body.There were no signs that Sir Charles had been murdered,but Dr Mortimer did not recognize his friend's face.The whole shape of it was changed.However,this often hap- pens with deaths which are caused by weak hearts.When Dr Mortimer looked at the body,he found that this was,in fact,what had happened.Sir Charles'weak heart had failed,and this had caused his death.
摩梯末医生被叫来查看查尔斯爵士的尸体。没有迹象说明查尔斯爵士是被谋杀的,但是摩梯末医生已认不出他朋友的面容了。整个脸已经变形了。然而,这对因心脏衰竭而导致的死亡来说是常有的。当摩梯末医生察看尸体时,他发现这事实上正是所发生的情况。查尔斯爵士的虚弱的心脏已无力承受重荷,这导致了他的死亡。
Everyone hopes that the new head of the Baskerville family will move quickly into the Hall.Sir Charles good work must go on.
大家都期盼巴斯克维尔家族的新主人能快速入住巴斯克维尔庄园。查尔斯爵士的善行必须继续进行下去。
The new head of the Baskerville family will be Sir Hen- ry Baskerville,if he is still alive and if the lawyers can find him.He is the son of Sir Charles Baskerville's younger brother,who died some years ago.The young man has been living in the USA.The Baskerville lawyers are trying to contact him to tell him about his good fortune.
巴斯克维尔家族的新主人将是亨利·巴斯克维尔爵士,如果他尚在人世而律师们又能找到他的话。他是查尔斯·巴斯克维尔爵士的弟弟的儿子,他弟弟本人已在数年前故去。这位年轻人一直居住在美国。巴斯克维尔家族的律师们正试图与他联系以将他的好运告诉他。
Dr Mortimer put the newspaper back into his pocket.
摩梯末医生将这份报纸放回了口袋里。
'Those are the official facts about the death of Sir Charles.They are the facts that everyone knows,Mr Holmes,'he said.
