Canon Story: The Adventure of the Dancing Men

A cipher solved in time; but action taken too late and a man has died.  True, the woman will live and is no longer accused and the real villain is captured.  But still there has been a preventable death.  What price brilliant deduction demonstrated to all when a telegram could have saved a life?  Holmes, how can you justify it?

Ahh, that's the question. And it remains open and agonizing. You cut right to the heart of the matter -- very well done.

Agreed--Holmes' arrogance in wanting his dramatic reveal. Nice capture.
