Hmmnn. Hardly one of the classics...

No doubt Holmes dipped the Persian slipper a time or two during the evening,
and probably ordered a pound of shag tobacco from Bradley's for his muse. Fascinating discovery. :eusa_clap

That's the one. It's no Baskerville but an interesting find nonetheless.

I don't think it matters whether it is good or bad. It is an original Conan Doyle. Some of the published stories were not that great, either. Now if we could only come up with a few dozen unpublished Hammets or Chandlers.
