"Who is he?" I asked.

"The worst man in London," Holmes answered, as he sat down and

stretched his legs before the fire. "Is anything on the back

of the card?"

I turned it over.

"Will call at 6.30 -- C.A.M.," I read.

"Hum! He's about due. Do you feel a creeping, shrinking

sensation, Watson, when you stand before the serpents in the

Zoo and see the slithery, gliding, venomous creatures, with

their deadly eyes and wicked, flattened faces? Well, that's how

Milverton impresses me. I've had to do with fifty murderers in

my career, but the worst of them never gave me the repulsion

which I have for this fellow. And yet I can't get out of doing

business with him -- indeed, he is here at my invitation."
