Author's Notes: ...the shop of Morse Hudson, who has a place for the sale of pictures and statues…
The tall customer seemed familiar somehow.
“I need a large print,” he said. “To cover an area of… charred wallpaper.”
Morse Hudson considered. “The Death of Chatterton, perhaps?”
“Perfect. Send it to⸺” The gentleman paused abruptly. “Tell me—you’re not related to a Mrs. Hudson? Of Baker Street..?”
“Well, no,” frowned Morse Hudson.
“Thank God for that,” muttered the gentleman.
[A/N: The model used for The Death of Chatterton was a young George Meredith, and it is of course canon that Holmes was an admirer of his (see BOSC).]
