We regret to announce that [[Sherlock Holmes]] is dead. In the Christmas number of the ''[[The Strand Magazine|Strand Magazine]]'' this remarkable person at last meets with somebody on the same intellectual plane as himself," which seems extraordinary, for we did not know that the world could produce another intellect of this calibre. When two such minds meet the result — but we need not spoil the interest of [[Arthur Conan Doyle|Conan Doyle]]'s ''dénouement''. We can only hope that the protests of still unsatiated readers will not compel [[Arthur Conan Doyle|Dr. Doyle]] to dig up [[Sherlock Holmes]] again, as Shakespeare had to disinter Falstaff, after he had died babbling of green fields, to oblige Queen Elizabeth.<br />
