<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div><br /> This letter was written by [[Arthur Conan Doyle]] in august 1893 to Ruby Paulson, Mount Sorrel, Loughborough.<br /> <br /> <br /> &lt;gallery mode=&quot;packed&quot; heights=&quot;200px&quot;&gt;<br /> File:letter-acd-1893-08-ruby-paulson-recto.jpg|<br /> File:letter-acd-1893-08-ruby-paulson-verso.jpg|<br /> File:letter-acd-1893-08-ruby-paulson-envelop.jpg|<br /> &lt;/gallery&gt;<br /> <br /> <br /> == Letter ==<br /> <br /> My Dear Ruby<br /> <br /> Sherlock has become very lazy and I am very stupid so that I am afraid there will not be very many more stories about the strange things that he has done. But both he and I are very pleased when we hear that we have given pleasure to nice little girls. I showed him your letter and he said that your signature showed him that your father was about 45 years of age, that your hair was brown, and that you were a clever little girl with a turn for everything except mathematics. That was what he said, but he smokes too much and has been getting quite muddled lately.<br /> <br /> Your affectionate friend<br /> <br /> A. Conan Doyle<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> ----<br /> * [[Sir Arthur Conan Doyle:Letters|Back to Conan Doyle&#039;s letters]]<br /> * [[Sir Arthur Conan Doyle|Back to Conan Doyle]]</div>
