The Mystery of Edwin Drood

Light (1 october 1927, p. 473)

Sir, — The Edwin Drood case seems to me to be so important, both from a psychic and from a literary point of view, that I was about to interrupt my brief holiday in order to send you an account of it, but I find that it would be a superfluous work, since Mr. von Reuter has done it so clearly and accurately. I would only add that my hands were not on the instrument, and that I had not discussed the question with the von Reuters.

Yours, etc.,
A. CONAN DOYLE.
