  According to Mary, in December 1878, her father had telegraphed her upon his safe return from India
  and requested her to meet him at the Langham Hotel in London. When Mary arrived at the hotel, she
  was told her father had gone out the previous night and not returned. Despite all efforts, no trace was
  ever found of him. Mary contacted her father's only friend who was in the same regiment and had
  since retired to England, one Major John Sholto, but he denied knowing her father had returned. The
  second puzzle is that she has received six pearls in the mail from an anonymous benefactor, one per
  year since 1882 after answering an anonymous newspaper query inquiring for her. With the last pearl
  she received a letter remarking that she has been wronged and asking for a meeting. Holmes takes
  the case and soon discovers that Major Sholto had died in 1882 and that within a short span of time
  Mary began to receive the pearls, implying a connection. The only clue Mary can give Holmes is a
  map of a fortress found in her father's desk with the names of Jonathan Small, Mahomet Singh,
  Abdullah Khan and Dost Akbar.
