Sherlock Holmes,the world's first consulting detective,was born
January 6,1854 the descendant of country squires.He spent two years
at university before taking rooms in Montague street around the corner
from the British Museum.While at university he spent the long vacation
with a friend,Victor Trevor,at Trevor's family home where Trevor Sr.,
suggested Holmes make a profession out of his ability to observe.(GLOR)
It was at St.Barts' Hospital sometime during 1882 that a mutual
acquaintance introduced Holmes to Dr.John H.Watson,who was later to
become Holmes' biographer and closest friend.The two would share rooms
in Baker Street throughout most of Holmes' long career,save for those
times that Watson was married.(STUD)
Holmes investigated close to a thousand cases by 1891 when he was
supposedly dispatched by Professor Moriarty (the most dangerous and
formidable criminal mind Holmes would ever encounter) down the falls
of Reichenbach.(FINA)
Resurrected in 1894,after a hiatus during which Holmes traveled
throughout Europe and Asia under various pseudonyms,Holmes returns to
London and again takes up residence in Baker Street.(EMPT) He solves
many hundreds of cases until he retires to Sussex sometime during 1903-04.
His retirement is our great loss.We wish him well as he raises bees
along the Sussex Coast and we try to remember that it is always "1895"
