Mr. Stapleton is so amused by the moor because he will, “never tire of the moor,” and he invented his time to know all “the wonderful secrets it contains. It is so vast, barren and mysterious,” He's, “only been here two years”. There's a, “few men who know it better than I do”. (Conan Doyle 69). Mrs. Stapleton wants Sir henry to, “!Go back to London!”.
