This story takes place in Horsham, West Sussex, England around the late 1800s, post Civil War. The KKK was formed in 1865 in Tennessee and quickly spread to other states, but its influence had faded by the 1880s. This explains why Sherlock Holmes could not figure out the perpetrator despite all of their clues.

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are visited by a young man named John Openshaw. He told them about his uncle named Elias. And how one day Elias received a letter with five orange pips. He freaked out and destroyed the envelope because he learned it had come from the KKK. He created a will out of panic and left his estate to Johns father Joseph. A couple days later Elias was found dead in a shallow garden pool. A couple years pass and Joseph gets a letter with five orange pips as well. Before Joseph saw the letter he found a box full of KKK letters and destroyed them. And then when he got the letter he couldn't piece things together because it was already destroyed. He was then found dead a couple days later. John then inherited the estate and received the same letter. He showed Sherlock and he explained what the KKK was. In Elias diary it has said that he set the pips on three people. The pips where symbolic for a death threat. The next morning the paper announced Johns death by drowning. Sherlock was shocked and researched the ship that john was on. When doing so he found out that the captain was named Calhoun and works with two american KKK shipmates. Sherlock sent a letter with five orange pips and on the envelope the initials of the dead to scare them off but the ship got in an accident. He dosent know if the envelope ever made it to Calhoun.

I thought the story was interesting. I dont like how it dosent tell us exactly who murdered everyone and if the letter in the end ever made it to its destination. It was an interesting story to read and discuss.

I like how the story ends with the question of whether or not the letter ever made it to Calhoun. I also liked how after each person received the letter, they mysteriously die. I didn't like how it never specifically revealed who killed who and how they did it.

means- Everyone that lived in the estate at a time lived by themselves. this could have made it easy for someone to go in and murder them because there would be no witnesses around.

I like how the story was taken place where it was and gave a good climax. However, it didn't tell who was killing everyone. It had a great climax when someone would find a mystery letter and later on they would just vanish and die.

# data[].attributes.body
Opportunity- The KKK is a big clan so it would have been easy for all of them to gang up on one person and murder them.

# data[].attributes.body
Motive- They had incriminating evidence against the KKK as well as them destroying the envelopes that the KKK would send.

I really liked the story and how it was very entertaining with the backstory and the letters the characters would receive. Although they never stated the killer I think it clear by the letters in the box and the ones they would receive.
