In chapter 8 of The Hound of the Baskervilles, why does Dr.
Watson believe that the escaped convict is no longer of concern?

Sagot :

Watson told Sir Henry that Barrymore may not have received the telegram Holmes sent from London himself. So Sir Henry asks Barrymore if he read the telegram and replied to it himself. He answers that, since he was busy, he let his wife answer. Later on in the day, Barrymore asks if Sir Henry suspects him of something.
