'''A Recent Find'''<br />
<br />
Several unpublished writing of the late [[Sir Arthur Conan Doyle]] are reported to have been found among manuscripts in a cardboard hat-box which the author had placed in a bank at Crowborough, Sussex, in 1922. The manuscripts are said to include a one-act play entitled [[The Crown Diamond: An Evening with Sherlock Holmes|The Crown Diamond]], several youthful essays and lectures, including one on hypnotism and another on a schoolboy's opinion of drink, and "[[Some Personalia About Mr. Sherlock Holmes]]." According to Mr. [[John Dickson Carr]], who is writing a new biography of [[Sir Arthur Conan Doyle]], one of the characters in the one-act play is Colonel Sebastian Moran, the protégé and assistant of Moriarty. The documents are now in the possession of [[Sir Arthur Conan Doyle]]'s family. <br />
