Utdrag ur boken:
(Ur The Adventure of the Bruce-Partington Plans)

[Sherlock Holmes] slapped me on the shoulder with a sudden burst of hilarity. "I am going out now. It is only a reconnaissance. I will do nothing serious without my trusted comrade and biographer at my elbow. Do you stay here, and the odds are that you will see me again in an hour or two. If time hangs heavy get foolscap and a pen, and begin you narrative of how we saved the State."
