A weathered Cornish sailor has come to 221B Baker Street to see Sherlock Holmes. He shares a tale so haunting and otherworldly that it seems to offer only one possible explanation, a supernatural one. William Berryman of the coal ship Mariah went to sea as a boy and is now an old man, but in all his years he has never experienced anything like he did in The Great Storm of '99 off the Cornish Coast. The storm drove his ship into the deadly Manacles, a line of savage rock outcroppings that had already claimed over a thousand souls. He tells Holmes and Watson that only nine of nineteen men survived the shipwreck in a lifeboat upon the dark, storm-tossed sea, only nine! Then the man shocks them by declaring that he and his mates want Holmes to find out who The Tenth Man was. He wasn't there when they launched the lifeboat and he wasn't there when they landed, but without his help, the sailor says, they would never have survived.
