надо сократить текст(для краткого пересказа) : The famous detective Sherlock Holmes and his faithful friend and assistant Dr. Watson carefully examined the "good thick stick with a knob", forgotten by yesterday's visitor. They were practicing their powers of observation, trying to figure out who might own such a thing. Soon the owner of the cane appeared – a young doctor, James Mortimer. He said he was struck by the" sudden and tragic death " of Sir Charles Baskerville, whose friend he had been for a long time. The doctor read to Holmes and Watson an old manuscript that described the terrible curse that prevailed over the entire Baskerville family. Mortimer asked the detective to take up the case, since the deceased's heir, young Sir Henry Baskerville, was soon to arrive from America. In addition, the doctor was concerned that even before Sir Charles ' death, local residents had seen "a terrible glowing ghost of exorbitant size" on the peat bogs. Mortimer was afraid that the only heir to the Baskervilles would suffer a sad fate. Sherlock Holmes, intrigued by the story, agreed to help with the investigation. The next day Mortimer appeared, accompanied by Sir Henry Baskerville, who "gave the impression of being a very lively, healthy man." Sir Henry said that a strange thing had happened to him immediately after his arrival in London. He had lost one new shoe at the hotel, and had also received a letter asking him to stay "away from the peat bogs." However, these events did not affect Sir Henry's decision to immediately go " to the house of his ancestors.". The next day, it turned out that another, old, shoe of Sir Henry's had been stolen. He was very angry – never in his life had "anything more ridiculous or more strange"happened to him. It became clear that the young Baskerville, who was to receive a huge inheritance, "was being watched". Holmes decided that Dr. Watson would accompany Sir Henry and send him detailed reports on life on the family estate. The detective himself remained temporarily in London.
