* [[Sherlock Holmes]] mentioned [[François Le Villard]], the French detective, who consulted Holmes for a case concerning a will. ([[SIGN]], {{refcanon|SIGN|64}})<br />

: « ''My practice has extended recently to the Continent, after awhile, filling up his old briar-root pipe. I was consulted last week by '''François Le Villard''', who, as you probably know, has come rather to the front lately in the French detective service. He has all the Celtic power of quick intuition, but he is deficient in the wide range of exact knowledge which is essential to the higher developments of his art. The case was concerned with a will, and possessed some features of interest. I was able to refer him to two parallel cases, the one at Riga in 1857, and the other at St. Louis in 1871, which have suggested to him the true solution. Here is the letter which I had this morning acknowledging my assistance.'' » — Sherlock Holmes.<br />
