sherlock holmes: Chapter 1

 In chapter one Sherlock Holmes uses observation and deduction to find out his clues! Although,  he uses drugs such as cocaine and morphine to ‘keep him concentrated’ so he can solve the problem that is given to him. Holmes uses observation when he took a look at the shoes and assumed that the the dirt on the shoe was from london. he was able to figure this out because he knew that the dirt was that color in one place! Then Watson gave Holmes a watch and then asked him to describe the personality of the owners watch. Holmes figures out that the owner of the watch was inept and ‘careless’ and also finds out that he was an alcholic. All these deductions Holmes made were because of juse a simple act, observing the watch!~~ smart guy!!
