Holmes and Watson do not refuse to help her and find out that Miss Mary is the heiress to a huge fortune - the treasures of Agra, which are also claimed by the sons of Major Sholto and Jonathan Small - an escaped convict with a wooden prosthesis instead of a leg, whom the elder Morstan and Sholto deceived...

Now he is going to get married and wants to avoid a scandal...
