A Study in Scarlet

Sherlock Holmes (Reginald Owen) wants to know why the members of a London secret society keep dying. The society, run by the lawyer Thaddeus Merrydew, hands each dead member's assets to the survivors, and the widow of James Murphy comes to Holmes angry at being left with nothing. Edwin L. Marin ties Holmes to young Eileen Forrester (June Clyde), a reluctant member whose father's death put her on the list.
