Holmes observes that building work seems to be under way at the estate and identifies the house as their destination. The driver points out the village and the manor, explains a shorter footpath, and indicates a woman walking along it. Holmes shades his eyes with one hand and studies the distant figure.

"There is some building going on there," said Holmes; "that is where we are going."「あそこでは建築工事が行われているようだ。私たちが行くのはあそこだ」とホームズは言った。
"There's the village," said the driver, pointing to a cluster of roofs some distance to the left; "but if you want to get to the house, you'll find it shorter to get over this stile, and so by the footpath over the fields.「村はあれでがすが」と御者は、少し離れた左手に集まった屋根を指さして言った。「お屋敷へ行きなさるなら、この踏み段を越えて、野原の小道を行きなさるのが近道でがす。
There it is, where the lady is walking."ほれ、あすこでがす、ご婦人が歩いておいでのところでがす」
"And the lady, I fancy, is Miss Stoner," observed Holmes, shading his eyes.「そして、あの女性は、おそらくストーナーさんだろう」とホームズは、目の上に手をかざしながら言った。
"Yes, I think we had better do as you suggest."「そう、きみの言うとおりにしたほうがよさそうだ」
We got off, paid our fare, and the trap rattled back on its way to Leatherhead.私たちは馬車を降り、料金を払い、二輪馬車はがたがたとレザーヘッドへ戻っていった。
"I thought it as well," said Holmes as we climbed the stile, "that this fellow should think we had come here as architects, or on some definite business.「こうしておくのがよいと思ってね」と、踏み段を登りながらホームズは言った。「あの男には、私たちが建築家として、あるいは何か用向きがあってここへ来たと思わせておけばいい。
It may stop his gossip.そうすれば、おしゃべりを封じられるかもしれない。
Good-afternoon, Miss Stoner.こんにちは、ストーナーさん。
You see that we have been as good as our word."ご覧のとおり、約束は守りましたよ」
