When Holmes remarks on the assistant’s unusual value, Wilson admits that the man does have one fault. Whenever possible, Spaulding takes photographs and rushes into the cellar to develop them instead of improving his mind with books. Even so, Wilson considers him hardworking and respectable. Holmes asks whether this photography-loving assistant is still in the shop.

"Oh, he has his faults, too," said Mr. Wilson.「いや、あの男にも欠点はありますよ」とウィルソン氏は言った。
"Never was such a fellow for photography.「あれほど写真に夢中な男はいませんね。
Snapping away with a camera when he ought to be improving his mind, and then diving down into the cellar like a rabbit into its hole to develop his pictures.本でも読んで頭を磨けばいいときにカメラをぱちぱちやっては、ウサギが巣穴に飛び込むみたいに地下室へもぐり込んで、写真を現像しているんです。
That is his main fault, but on the whole he's a good worker.それが一番の欠点ですが、全体としてはよく働く男です。
There's no vice in him."悪い遊びもしませんしね」
"He is still with you, I presume?"「その男は、今もあなたのところにいるのだね？」
