[[Sir Arthur Conan Doyle|Dr. A. Conan Doyle]], the author, lectured to a large and cultured audience, at the Odd Fellows' Hall, last night. It was rather a talk along the line of authorship than a lecture, and as such was much better appreciated than it would have been had it consisted in a studied dissertation.

The noted novelist related in his peculiarly interesting way the story of how [[Sherlock Holmes]], after going through 26 stories, was finally forced to die a tragic death. Then he told how he came to write "[[Micah Clarke]]," the story that made his reputation. Then he talked about "[[The Great Shadow]]" and "[[The Refugees]]." To the large audience his talk was eminently satisfactory, and his description of his manner and ways of writing his stories was most enthusiastically received.
