[[Mr. Melas]] was also locked in that room, but survived ([[GREE]] {{refcanon|GREE|419}}).<br /> <br /> * He fled Britain with [[Wilson Kemp]] and [[Sophy Kratides]]; months later, two Englishmen traveling with a woman were found stabbed in Buda-Pesth (Budapest). Police thought they killed each other, but [[Sherlock Holmes]] suspected [[Sophy Kratides]] took revenge ([[GREE]] {{refcanon|GREE|430}}).<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> ----<br /> [[Category:Characters (all stories)|Latimer, Harold]]<br /> [[Category:Characters (Sherlock Holmes stories)|Latimer, Harold]]<br /> [[Category:Criminals|Latimer, Harold]]</div>
