 At the summit of Hindhead, and immediately below the Portsmouth road, one of the younger forces in literature has erected his home. A few months since [[Arthur Conan Doyle|Dr Conan Doyle]] settled here, and already his services have been claimed by his neighbours on behalf of the literary society. With Grant Allen in the chair, the creator of '[[Sherlock Holmes]]' adopted Dickens' plan, and read selections from his own books. 'Undershaw', so named by [[Sir Arthur Conan Doyle|Dr. Doyle]], faces almost due south; it possesses a pretty hall, built in baronial style, illuminated by a window containing the owner's arms. From this cosy corner one can look straight away through the south entrance down the valley-rich in broom-to the South Downs in the distance. The billiard-room is a pleasant apartment, opening from the hall, and here it seems quite natural to find originals of the sketches illustrating the adventures of the clever Holmes. The youthful branches of the family are here, there, and everywhere. First we see them in the hall, then with a rush they race down the valley; but for a minute we get them quiet, and here they are in our picture.
