Great Essays
Sherlock Holmes and his partner, John Watson, stolled up the lane and stopped at a door marked 21C, which was shaded by an old magnolia tree. “I think this place looks like the one.” said Watson to Sherlock.

“I think this is a time for non formalities.” pronounced Sherlock and then he kicked open the door with an extra push from the cold autumn air outside.
Sherlock tread upon the threshold, kicking up a few leaves from the magnolia tree outside, and surveyed the room. It was an utter mess, with all the chairs knocked over and every

We can go to jail for this!” Watson angrily whispered. Sherlock went to the window and pulled up the blinds to let light into the pitch blackness. “Well, you have been standing at the door I have found what I think might be the locket.” Sherlock said to Watson with a smirk. “Then why haven't you gotten it yet?” said Watson looking around cautiously.
