== In the Sherlock Holmes stories ==<br />
<br />
* Wilson Kemp was a man of the foulest antecedents ([[GREE]] {{refcanon|GREE|424}}). An older associate and partner-in-crime of [[Harold Latimer]] ([[GREE]] {{refcanon|GREE|303}}). <br />
<br />
* He was a small, mean-looking, middle-aged man with rounded shoulders ([[GREE]] {{refcanon|GREE|156}}). He spoke in a jerky, nervous fashion, and with some giggling laughs in between ([[GREE]] {{refcanon|GREE|164}}). The terror of his face lay in his eyes, however, steel grey, and glistening coldly, with a malignant, inexorable cruelty in their depths ([[GREE]] {{refcanon|GREE|240}}). His features were peeky and sallow, and his little, pointed beard was thready and ill-nourished ([[GREE]] {{refcanon|GREE|237}}).<br />
<br />
* He orchestrated the coercion sessions with [[Mr. Melas]] as interpreter; later he tried to murder [[Mr. Melas]] and [[Paul Kratides]] by filling a locked room with charcoal fumes at The Myrtles, Beckenham ([[GREE]] {{refcanon|GREE|396}}).<br />
<br />
* He fled Britain with [[Harold Latimer]] and [[Sophy Kratides]]; months later, two Englishmen traveling with a woman were found stabbed in Buda-Pesth (Budapest). Police thought they killed each other, but [[Sherlock Holmes]] suspected [[Sophy Kratides]] took revenge ([[GREE]] {{refcanon|GREE|430}}).<br />
