Author's Notes: “…it is nearly nine, and the landlady babbled of green peas at seven-thirty... I expect that you will get notice to quit and that I shall share your downfall…”

“I don't know whether you observed my bedroom window?" “…three separate windows, one… large enough to admit a man." “The man might have effected his entrance there, left traces as he passed through the bedroom…”



“Do stop pushing, Holmes! Oh, I am too old for this.”

“Chasing criminals in the pitch dark? Or breaking into your own bedroom through a window afterwards?”

“Both! Damn that landlady—locking up at ten. Now, if I grab here and heave… Aaargh!”

“Watson!”

“I’m in! Just let me put a light on…



“Holmes?”

“Yes?”

“This isn’t our boarding house.”

Plato. Miles McLaren was sure of it; the Greek translation had to be Plato.

He ran into Gilchrist on the stairs. The chap was white as a sheet.

"Studying too much Plato, have you?"

"Thucydides," Gilchrist muttered absent-mindedly.

"What?"

But Gilchrist had already disappeared into his room.

Thucydides... Well, he'd better spend the night reading up on the Peleponnesian War.

Had Holmes not advertised the fact that he had stolen some of the dubious explosives by blowing up part of our ceiling, we could at least have remained in London whilst repairs were made.  In the circumstances, it was considered safer for us to leave the capital, a fact which also took us out of reach of Mrs Hudson’s wrath.

Bannister
On finding his young mister
Spoke to him man to man
And thought Rhodesia a good plan
