Sherlock Holmes Public LibraryThe Memoirs
Holmes gave me a sketch of the events
A man appeared out of the darkness
They found the dead body of the unfortunate trainer
I am delighted that you have come down, Mr. Holmes
"Have you found them?" she panted
"Be off!"
Holmes was extremely pleased
He laid his hand on the glossy neck

He held it up
Our visitor sprang from his chair
"What may you be wantin'?"
"Trust me, Jack," she cried
"Tell me everything," said I
There was a little coal-black negress
He lifted the little girl
- No radio shows available
"Nothing could be better," said Holmes
"Mr. Hall Pycroft, I believe," said he
Up came a man and addressed me
He looked up at us
We found ourselves in the inner room
Pycroft shook his clenched hands in the air
Glancing at the haggard figure
- Carleton Hobbs & Norman Shelley 1960
Trevor used to come in and inquire after me
"Hudson it is, Sir" said the seaman
"I've not had my 'pology," said he, sulkily
The key of the riddle was in my hand
Jack Pendergast
The chaplain stood with a smoking pistol in his hand
We pulled him board the boat

A curious collection
Reginald Musgrave
He sprang to his feet
It has a girth of twenty-three feet
This was the place indicated
It was the figure of a man

I held up a warning finger
Inspector Forrester
Holmes took up a piece of paper, a facsimile of which is here reproduced
"Good heavens! What is the matter?"
He deliberately knocked the whole thing over
Bending over the prostrate body of Sherlock Holmes
The point is a simple one
There was no powder blackening on the clothes
The note after Holmes pieced it together

I'll fill a vacant peg, then
The coachman rushed to the door
What do you make of that?
It's Nancy
Mr. Henry Wood, I believe?
I walked right into six of them
"It was quite a simple case after all"
- Carleton Hobbs & Norman Shelley 1966-12-19
I stared at him in astonishment
Helped him into a chair
He burst into my consulting room
In his hand he held a pistol
Holmes opened it and smelled the single cigar which it contained
"You have got them!" we cried
- Carleton Hobbs & Norman Shelley 1961-12
Holmes pulled out his watch
Mycroft Holmes
He drew up the windows
I thrilled with horror
"Sophy! Sophy!"
I saw someone coming towards me
"Come in," said blandly
"It's charcoal," he cried

Holmes was working hard over a chemical investigation
"Then take the treaty"
Fast asleep in his box
"Here is a rough chart of the place"
"Why, if it isn't Mr. Phelps"
What a lovely thing a rose is
The view was sordid enough
"I've heard of your methods before now," Mr. Holmes
"I won't waste your time" said he
A nobleman
"Any news?" he asked
Holmes examined it critically
"I hardly expect to go back to Briarbrae"
Phelps raised the cover
Joseph Harrison stepped out
"Is there any other point which I can make clear?"

The Death of Sherlock Holmes
Two of his knuckles were burst and bleeding
"Professor Moriarty stood before me"
"He turned his rounded back upon me"
My decrepit Italian friend
It passed with a rattle and a roar
A large rock clattered down
I saw Holmes gazing down at the rush of the waters
A small square of paper fluttered down
