The strip-lit room, the horse-shoe table of MPs, facing the accused. The speaker is Lady Smallwood - fifties, wiry, sharp-eyed. The accused - calmly folded hands on a table top. Next to them, a pair of gold-rimmed spectacles. Magnussen. His voice is soft, reasonable, a Danish accent. LADY SMALLWOOD Mr. Magnussen, how would you describe your influence over the Prime Minister? MAGNUSSEN The British Prime Minster? LADY SMALLWOOD Any of the British Prime Ministers you have known. MAGNUSSEN I never had the slightest influence over any of them. Why would I? Lady Smallwood is consulting some notes. LADY SMALLWOOD I notice you’ve had seven meetings at Downing Street this year. Why? MAGNUSSEN Because I was invited. LADY SMALLWOOD Can you recall the subjects under discussion. MAGNUSSEN Not without being more indiscreet than I believe is appropriate.

SHERLOCK HOLMES COLONEL SEBASTIAN MORAN – An Intellectual Criminal SAM MERTON – A Boxer SCENE MR HOLMES’ ROOM AT BAKER STREET It presents the usual features, but there is a deep bow window to it, and across there is drawn a curtain running upon a brass rod fastened across eight feet above the ground, and enclosing recess of the window. Enter WATSON and BILLY WATSON Well, Billy, when will he be back? BILLY I’m sure I couldn’t say, sir. WATSON When did you see him last? BILLY I really couldn’t tell you. WATSON What, you couldn’t tell me? BILLY No, sir. There was a clergyman looked in yesterday, and there was an old bookmaker, and there was a workman. WATSON Well? 3 BILLY But I’m not sure they weren’t all Mr. Holmes. You see, he’s very hot on a chase just now. WATSON Oh! BILLY He neither eats nor sleeps. Well, you’ve lived with him same as me. You know what he’s like when he’s after someone. WATSON Yes, I know. BILLY He’s a responsibility, sir, that he is. It’s a real worry to me sometimes. When I asked him if he would order dinner, he said, ‘Yes, I’ll have chops and mashed potatoes at seven-thirty the day after tomorrow.’ ‘Won’t you eat before then, sir?’ I asked. -
Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press 2021
Jan 21 #1 Scuttlebutt from the Spermaceti Press Sherlockians (and Holmesians) did not gather in New York to celebrate the Great Detective’s 167th birthday this year, but the somewhat shorter long weekend offered plenty of events, thanks to Zoom and other modern technol- ogy. Detailed reports will be available soon at the web-site of The Baker Street Irregulars <www.bakerstreetirregulars.com>, but here are few brief paragraphs to tide you over: The BSI’s Distinguished Speaker on Thursday was Andrew Lycett, the author of two fine books about Conan Doyle; his topic was “Conan Doyle’s Questing World” (and close to 400 people were able to attend the virtual lecture); the event also included the announcement by Steve Rothman, editor of the Baker Street Journal, of the winner of the Morley-Montgomery Award for the best article the BSJ last year: Jessica Schilling (for her “Just His Type: An Analysis of the Découpé Warning in The Hound of the Baskervilles”). Irregulars and guests gathered on Friday for the BSI’s annual dinner, with Andrew Joffe offering the traditional first toast to Nina Singleton as The Woman, and the program continued with the usual toasts, rituals, and pap- ers; this year the toast to Mrs. Hudson was delivered by the lady herself, splendidly impersonated by Denny Dobry from his recreation of the sitting- room at 221B Baker Street. Mike Kean (the “Wiggins” of the BSI) presented the Birthday Honours (Irregular Shillings and Investitures) to Dan Andri- acco (St. Saviour’s Near King’s Cross), Deborah Clark (Mrs. Cecil Forres- ter), Carla Coupe (London Bridge), Ann Margaret Lewis (The Polyphonic Mo- tets of Lassus), Steve Mason (The Fortescue Scholarship), Ashley Polasek (Singlestick), Svend Ranild (A “Copenhagen” Label), Ray Riethmeier (Mor- rison, Morrison, and Dodd), Alan Rettig (The Red Lamp), and Tracy Revels (A Black Sequin-Covered Dinner-Dress). -

2015 Jhws Treasure Hunt
2015 JHWS TREASURE HUNT “Mr. Sherlock Holmes” Category: Holmes’s personality 1. This author, while writing his own stories about a fatherly detective, went so far as to assert that Sherlock Holmes was not a man, but a god. Who? (1 pt.) Answer: G.K. Chesterton, author of the Father Brown mysteries ---See The Sherlock Holmes Collection, The University of Minnesota, USH Volume I, Section VI: The Writings About the Writings, Chesterson, G.K., Sherlock Holmes the God, G.K.’s Weekly (February 21, 1935), at lib.umn.edu, and numerous others. ---Full quote: “Not once is there a glance at the human and hasty way in which the stories were written; not once even an admission that they were written. The real inference is that Sherlock Holmes really existed and that Conan Doyle never existed. If posterity only reads these latter books, it will certainly suppose them to be serious. It will imagine that Sherlock Holmes was a man. But he was not; he was only a god.” 2. Holmes did not, perhaps, have a knowledge of women across the continents, but, according to Watson, Holmes did hold a position across several of them. How many continents and what position? (2 pts.) Answer: Three, position of unofficial adviser and helper to everybody who is absolutely puzzled ---W., p. 191, IDEN: I smiled and shook my head. "I can quite understand you thinking so," I said. "Of course, in your position of unofficial adviser and helper to everybody who is absolutely puzzled, throughout three continents, you are brought in contact with all that is strange and bizarre. -
