- StarsAlwin NeußAlfi ZangenbergEinar ZangenbergSherlock Holmes is in make-up a lifelike presentment of Conan Doyle's famous character. A Count, who feels that his end is near, makes a will in favor of his wife, and it is deposited in a safe. The noted criminal, "Dr." Morse, is masquerading as the Count's medical attendant, and determines to get possession of the will. He therefore takes a wax impression of the keyhole of the safe, sending the skeleton key to a woman accomplice who is nursing the Count. When the Count's death occurs, the nurse quickly secures the will and hands it to "Dr." Morse when he arrives in response to an urgent message. The loss of the will is soon discovered, and Sherlock Holmes is consulted. He observes an emissary of "Dr." Morse's outside his chambers, so gets a friend to go out dressed as himself (Holmes), thus throwing the watcher off the scent. The Countess meanwhile drives away in her carriage; she is pursued in a motor car by Morse and his confederates, captured after a valiant defense by her coachman, and taken to a lonely cottage. Here she is bound and placed in charge of a horrible little hunchback, whom Morse tells to kill her on the stroke of midnight unless other instructions are received. Then Morse goes to Sherlock Holmes' chambers, and makes a forcible entry. Holmes is there and holds him up. Morse laughs, and says if he is not back at the cottage in half an hour, the Countess will be killed. So Holmes lets him go, and accompanies him. A trap to kill him fails, and the Countess is saved from death. Morse escapes by throwing pepper in two police constables' eyes, but is captured eventually, through going out of bravado to Holmes' rooms.
