Watson's Tin Box of Ellicott City, Maryland
"Somewhere in the vaults of the bank at Cox and Co.,
at Charing Cross, there is a travel-worn
and battered tin dispatch-box, with my name,
John H. Watson, M.D.,Late Indian Army,
painted upon the lid."
The Problem of Thor Bridge
Welcome to Watson's Tin Box--"A singular set of people..."
Watson’s Tin Box is dedicated to reading and discussing the stories of Sherlock Holmes. Ours is a congenial group which invites and encourages members of all levels of knowledge and understanding of the stories, from the seasoned Sherlockian to the beginner, whom we all envy as they are discovering Holmes for the first time. The goal is to enjoy the stories and each other’s company!
Omnibus rebus impossibilibus remotis, quidquid relictum sit,
quamvis, debet esse veritas.
