Sherlock Holmes: Trifles

"I had painted" [TWIS]  The Morley-Montgomery Award-winning article we're discussing this month is by H.C. Potter from Vol. 26, No. 2 of The Baker Street Journal. In it, Potter looks at Watson's prosaic way of setting the scene for us. He selects excerpts from a number of stories to prove his case. Was he successful in backing up his claims? It's just a Trifle.  If you have a question for us, please email us at trifles@ihearofsherlock.com.
