Author's Notes: Originates from this dialogue between Lestrade and Holmes:
"We've got it all clear as if we had seen it."
Holmes raised his eyebrows.
"And yet you have sent for me?"
"Ah, yes, that's another matter -- a mere trifle, but the sort of thing you take an interest in -- queer, you know, and what you might call freakish. It has nothing to do with the main fact -- can't have, on the face of it."
"What is it, then?"
"A mere trifle." Hardly.
He realized this anomaly mattered, if not how. Lestrade is a decent bloodhound; he often can scent a clue's importance even if he lacks the acuity to discern what that importance may be.
The Inspector knew the second stain raised a pointed but unknown question, and he knew enough to summon me to provide the answer.
