Then, by a series of maneuvers that easily surpasses anything ever done by a Havlin or Deadwood Dick hero, your [[Sherlock Holmes|Mr. Sherlock Holmes]] has smashed the lamp, grasped the fair, young girl in his arms, and, defying half a dozen men who murder as a pastime, he has dashed into the open and left his enemies locked in their own trap. Whew! but it&#039;s lively.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> {{footer_periodicals}}</div>
