0:00.0	And the Yeah, Hello everyone and welcome back to one thousand one classic short stories and tales.
0:35.0	It's time for another Sherlock Holmes adventure and this one is one of Arthur Conan Doyle's personal favorites.
0:41.0	When Doyle decided to quit the series and had Moriarty do away
0:45.6	with Holmes, there was a public outcry. As the saying goes, you don't tug on Superman's
0:52.2	cape, you don't spit into the wind, and you don't tug on Superman's cape you don't spit into the wind and
0:54.4	you don't mess around with Sherlock and Watson. So Doyle got busy and
0:59.2	started writing the Return of Sherlock Home series and the free world was happy again at least for a while

1:57.4	Which afforded me the greatest shock and surprise of any event in my adventurous life.
2:03.0	Even now after this long interval, I find myself thrilling as I think of it,
2:08.0	and feeling once more that sudden flood of joy, amazement, and incredulity which utterly submerged my mind.
2:16.5	Let me say to that public which has shown some interest in those glimpses which I have occasionally
2:21.0	given them of the thoughts and actions of a very
2:24.0	remarkable man that they are not to blame me if I have not shared my knowledge with
2:28.6	them for I should have considered it my first duty to have done so had I not been barred by a positive prohibition
