Solution
Mr. Holmes and Watson try to think out why the League shut so abruptly. Holmes feels he should meet Wilson at home to ask some questions that were bothering him. When he reached Wilson's house, he noticed someone leaving the house. Mr. Holmes enquires about that person and understands that he was Wilson's assistant. Mr. Holmes feels that he has seen the assistants face before. Later, he checks on records and finds out that the assistant is none but a notorious criminal who was absconding. Mr. Holmes already had a sketch of Mr. Ross. On enquiring, he came to know that Ross and Spaulding were very close friends. Mr. Holmes goes to Mr. Ross' house and threatens him. Mr. Ross spills out the beans, that he and Spaulding were going to rob Mr. Wilson the very next day. Mr. Holmes informs the police and both Spaulding and Ross are caught and put behind bars.
