Shortly thereafter, Stackhurst's <a href="/wiki/Science_teacher" class="mw-redirect" title="Science teacher">science teacher</a>, Fitzroy McPherson, staggers up from the nearby beach, dressed in only his overcoat and trousers. He collapses at their feet, and dies shortly thereafter, having managed to scream the words "The Lion's Mane". He has long, narrow <a href="/wiki/Welt_(bruise)" title="Welt (bruise)">welts</a> curving around his body; he appears to have been repeatedly whipped with some sort of thin, flexible <a href="/wiki/Scourge" title="Scourge">scourge</a>, until his <a href="/wiki/Heart_disease" class="mw-redirect" title="Heart disease">weak heart</a> gave out with the pain. </p><p>Ian Murdoch, the morose <a href="/wiki/Mathematics_teacher" class="mw-redirect" title="Mathematics teacher">mathematics teacher</a> at the Gables, arrives on the scene, having just finished teaching an <a href="/wiki/Algebra" title="Algebra">algebra</a> class. Holmes sends him to find the police, then examines the nearby <a href="/wiki/Lagoon" title="Lagoon">bathing pool</a>, which had been created by unusually high tides after a recent series of <a href="/wiki/Gale" title="Gale">gales</a> from the south. Holmes finds McPherson's dry, folded towel, and concludes he had not yet been in the water. There are people far down the beach, and some fishing boats out at sea, but none are close enough to have had anything to do with the tragedy. The police arrive, but a search of the surrounding caves reveals no clues. </p><p>Ian Murdoch, due to his temper, is a possible suspect; he once threw McPherson's <a href="/wiki/Airedale_terrier" class="mw-redirect" title="Airedale terrier">Airedale terrier</a> through a window. However, Stackhurst insists the two men were friends. A note in McPherson's pocket suggests someone named "Maudie" had an appointment to meet him, so Stackhurst and Holmes go to the house of Maud Bellamy, the daughter of a wealthy sailor-turned-businessman. As they arrive, Murdoch passes them, having just left Maud's house. When Murdoch refuses to tell Stackhurst what he was doing there, the conversation escalates into a sharp argument, and Stackhurst gives Murdoch <a href="/wiki/Notice_period" title="Notice period">notice</a>. Inside the house, Maud's unpleasant father and brother reveal that they both disliked McPherson as being below their station. However, Maud explains that she and McPherson were secretly engaged, and often agreed to meet in private. She also admits that Murdoch is a former admirer of hers, causing Holmes and Stackhurst to believe he may have killed McPherson out of jealousy. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Lion%27s_mane.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6c/Lion%27s_mane.jpg/170px-Lion%27s_mane.jpg" decoding="async" width="170" height="235" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6c/Lion%27s_mane.jpg/255px-Lion%27s_mane.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/6c/Lion%27s_mane.jpg 2x" data-file-width="321" data-file-height="443" /></a><figcaption>A <a href="/wiki/Lion%27s_Mane_jellyfish" class="mw-redirect" title="Lion's Mane jellyfish">Lion's Mane jellyfish</a> capturing a <a href="/wiki/Sea_gooseberry" class="mw-redirect" title="Sea gooseberry">sea gooseberry</a>.</figcaption></figure> <p>Days later, the <a href="/wiki/Inquest" title="Inquest">inquest</a> is adjourned due to lack of evidence. Murdoch's rooms are searched, in vain. Later, McPherson's dog is found dead on the same beach its master died on, a look of extreme pain on its face. This, and the memory of the dying man's last words, triggers Holmes to start a new line of inquiry, and he begins to dig through his old books. Inspector Bardle of the Sussex <a href="/wiki/Constabulary" title="Constabulary">Constabulary</a> visits, and asks if he should arrest Murdoch, but Holmes points out that Murdoch has an alibi. Suddenly, Murdoch and Stackhurst burst in, the former in great pain and with his torso covered in the same curving welts McPherson had. After treating Murdoch with <a href="/wiki/Brandy" title="Brandy">brandy</a>, and applying <a href="/wiki/Salad_oil" class="mw-redirect" title="Salad oil">salad oil</a> to the wounds, Holmes leads Stackhurst and Bardle back to the bathing pool. After some intense searching, he finds what he was looking for; a <i>Cyanea capillata</i>, or <a href="/wiki/Cyanea_capillata" class="mw-redirect" title="Cyanea capillata">lion's-mane jellyfish</a>, which has been washed into the pool by the recent gales. The three men promptly crush it beneath a boulder, killing it. </p><p>Murdoch, once recovered, explains that he was swimming when the creature stung him, though he only felt it and did not see it. Being a man in normal health, he has survived the encounter. Holmes shows the group a book by <a href="/wiki/John_George_Wood" title="John George Wood">John George Wood</a>,<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> detailing the author's own painful encounter with a <i>Cyanea</i>. The book's accurate description of the <a href="/wiki/Nematocyst" class="mw-redirect" title="Nematocyst">jellyfish stings</a> had put Holmes on the right trail; he had initially failed to consider a sea creature the culprit, because he had mistakenly assumed McPherson never entered the water. In reality, McPherson had simply been in too much pain to towel himself. The dog, pining and looking for its dead master, had entered the pool, and unintentionally shared McPherson's fate. </p><p>Murdoch explains that, while he had feelings for Maud, he had never acted on them, out of respect for his friend McPherson. Murdoch was, in fact, the secret deliverer of all the messages between his friend and Maud. Stackhurst and Murdoch make up their quarrel, and leave the cottage arm in arm. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Commentary">Commentary</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=The_Adventure_of_the_Lion%27s_Mane&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Commentary"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>This is one of only two stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle to be narrated by Sherlock Holmes himself instead of Dr Watson.
