As narrated by Dr. Watson:"Didn't I tell you so when we started?" cried Sherlock Holmes with a laugh. "That's the result of all our Study in Scarlet: to get them a testimonial!"
"Never mind," I answered, "I have all the facts in my journal, and the public shall know them. In the meantime you must make yourself contented by the consciousness of success, like the Roman miser—
"'Populus me sibilat, at mihi plaudo Ipse domi simul ac nummos contemplor in arca.'"
(Published 1887) (This short novel introduced Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson to the public)

"Stay" is a charming word in a friend's vocabulary
(A.B. Alcott). Stay and visit awhile. Your comments mean a lot to me.
