'''Lectures and Readings.'''

It was an interested and thoroughly sympathetic audience that gathered in Association Hall last evening to listen to [[Sir Arthur Conan Doyle|Dr. A. Conan Doyle]] read selections from his own writings. From the moment when he began reading his first selection about Judge Jeffreys from [[Micah Clarke]]," his simple, unaffected directness of manner and method in reading captivated his hearers. Besides the extract from "[[Micah Clarke]]," he read passages from "[[The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes]]," "[[The Refugees]]," and his latest book, "[[Round the Red Lamp]]." [[Sir Arthur Conan Doyle|Dr. Doyle]] is not an elocutionist, and he does not try to be. He reads his stories in a straightforward manner. His voice is round and clear, and his presence, tall and stalwart, satisfies the eye. He has a pleasant Scottish ''burr'' in his tones, and his eyes twinkled at times in sympathy with the laughter that now and then rippled over the audience. His second and last reading in Boston was given this afternoon.
