Canon Story: The Gloria Scott
Title: A Common Surname
Author: Castiron
Rating: G
Author's Notes: Playing with a speculation some Sherlockians have made about the connection between two characters....

He was not my husband.

Of course readers have speculated, but truly, it's a common surname. I do wish that dear Dr. Watson had chosen a pseudonym for the man, but that can't be helped. And after all, we were not unconnected.

He was my older brother.

Yes, Miss Hudson, later Mrs. Hudson. I said it was a common surname.

Ah, that's an interesting stance! I like the tone you gave to her words, telling a lot without saying a single word about Mrs Hudson's feelings.

Haha - now had he been called Garrideb ...

I was just reading the husband theory -- but I like this one much more! Nice work!

Ingenious! Glad you brought this out in your piece. The same last name struck me as well when I read the canon. Thanks for sharing!

Oh, nice! I love that you found a way to make a different connection between them. Well done.
