Warnings: none
Author's Notes:

He’d drunk for several nights on the story of the basement, the thieves, the arrest. It was only some weeks afterwards that Merryweather guiltily began to wonder. He tried not to think on it, because the explanation had been so tidily arranged. But finally, once the gin stopped flowing, he had to ask: what had they done with the dirt?

An excellent question! I suppose Holmes had it all figured it but assumed it was too obvious to mention--or explain to Watson.

Go pour another drink Mr Merryweather--everything will be alright!
