Answer:
Holmes did not eat or drink anything for three days which created the impact on his looks. He had become gaunt and pale. His voice had become just a groan. The landlady’s initial efforts to get a doctor were forbidden. On the third day evening, he allowed her to call Dr. Watson. When Dr. Watson arrived, there was a high drama disallowing him to examine the symptoms and snubbing him that he could allow a doctor in whom he can have confidence. He claimed to have been affected by an eastern disease known as the Tarpaunli fever or black plague. When Dr. Watson offered to bring some other experts, Holmes got so annoyed. In a delirium like state, he instructed Dr. Watson to keep some letters and papers on a table within his reach. He wanted the ivory box to be kept on the table. He instructed to slide it open using tongs. He had Smith invited. He described all the symptoms of his illness. Smith asked Holmes if he received any parcel on Wednesday. Holmes replied affirmatively and brushed it aside saying that it had a sharp blade and drew his blood. Hearing this Smith was overjoyed. He openly told him his end was near. Victor, a young person died on the fourth day. The more Holmes pleaded, the more Smith elaborated on his crime. He said that he knew too much about Victor’s death. He should not have crossed his path. He happily said that he would pocket the evidence of his crime (i.e.) the ivory box and get away. Suddenly Morton, Inspector, arrived and arrested him on charges of murder.
