One autumn day in the previous year, Watson visits Holmes and finds him with a stout, elderly gentleman whose hair is a fiery red. Watson tries to withdraw politely, but Holmes pulls him into the room. The visitor is Mr. Wilson, and Holmes introduces Watson as the trusted partner whose help may prove valuable in this case.

I had called upon my friend, Mr. Sherlock Holmes, one day in the autumn of last year and found him in deep conversation with a very stout, florid-faced, elderly gentleman with fiery red hair.去年の秋のある日、友人のシャーロック・ホームズ氏を訪ねると、彼は燃えるような赤毛の、ひどく太って赤ら顔をした年配の紳士と話し込んでいた。
With an apology for my intrusion, I was about to withdraw when Holmes pulled me abruptly into the room and closed the door behind me.邪魔をしたことを詫びて引き下がろうとすると、ホームズは私をいきなり部屋の中へ引っぱり込み、私の背後でドアを閉めた。
"You could not possibly have come at a better time, my dear Watson," he said cordially.「ワトソン、これ以上ないほどいい時に来てくれたね」と彼は愛想よく言った。
"I was afraid that you were engaged."「取り込み中じゃないかと思ったんだが」
"So I am.「そのとおり、取り込み中さ。
Very much so."それも大いにね」
"Then I can wait in the next room."「それなら隣の部屋で待っているよ」
"Not at all.「その必要はまったくない。
This gentleman, Mr. Wilson, has been my partner and helper in many of my most successful cases, and I have no doubt that he will be of the utmost use to me in yours also."ウィルソンさん、こちらの紳士は、私がうまく解決した事件の多くで相棒として手を貸してくれた人でね、あなたの件でもきっと大いに役立ってくれるはずだ」
The stout gentleman half rose from his chair and gave a bob of greeting, with a quick little questioning glance from his small fat-encircled eyes.太った紳士は椅子から半ば腰を浮かせてひょいと会釈し、肉に埋もれた小さな目で、探るような視線をすばやくちらりと向けた。
