Watson sat in his armchair, puzzling over a rather peculiar murder case, involving two sisters. Miss Clara Simpson and Miss Violet Simpson had both been enjoying a nice cold glass of lemonade, being a hot day it was much welcome. However, a tragedy occurred. Miss Violet Simpson died shortly after drinking her lemonade- it was later confirmed it was poison. Miss Clara Simpson had also drunk the same drink, which was also poisoned- yet she didn't die! Both drank the same lemonade and both contained ice. Holme's questioned Miss Clara and asked the following question- Did You drink more quickly than your sister? Why, yes, she replied, I simply gulped mine down, Clara only had small sips occasionally. Holmes immediately could solve the puzzle, Watson couldn't!
