With his personal advantages and his extraordinary gifts, he could speak several languages and play nearly every musical instrument ([[MUSG]] {{refcanon|MUSG|74}}).<br /> <br /> * Employed at Hurlstone for about twenty years and around forty years old at the time of the events ([[MUSG]] {{refcanon|MUSG|73}}).<br /> <br /> * Described by [[Reginald Musgrave]] as a bit of a [[Don Juan]] because of his tendency to charm and pursue women ([[MUSG]] {{refcanon|MUSG|77}}).<br /> <br /> * Formerly married, later widowed; engaged to [[Rachel Howells]] before breaking it off for [[Janet Tregellis]] ([[MUSG]] {{refcanon|MUSG|79}}).<br /> <br /> * Caught by [[Reginald Musgrave]] secretly studying the family document known as the &#039;&#039;Musgrave Ritual&#039;&#039; late at night in the library ([[MUSG]] {{refcanon|MUSG|90}}), and dismissed from service (given a week&#039;s notice) after being discovered, but disappeared before leaving ([[MUSG]] {{refcanon|MUSG|103}}).<br /> <br /> * He was found dead in the hidden chamber beneath the cellar — presumably trapped there after attempting to retrieve the hidden Stuart crown ([[MUSG]] {{refcanon|MUSG|292}}).<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> ----<br /> [[Category:Characters (all stories)|Brunton, Richard]]<br /> [[Category:Characters (Sherlock Holmes stories)|Brunton, Richard]]<br /> [[Category:Criminals|Brunton, Richard]]</div>
