Title Unwanted Gift

Rating G

Note: As has been pointed out, Shoscombe Old Place was the last published (April 1927) in serial form of the Canon Holmes stories. ACD died in 1930. But what if we are playing The Game?



“There will be no more stories now, but what a gift he left you. He made you immortal, Holmes.”

“An unwelcome prospect, Sir Arthur, I can assure you.”

“Come, now, be a little grateful. Men have fought wars for reputation. You truly wish it otherwise? Why?"

“Simplicity itself. A legacy cannot be enjoyed with the giver.”
