The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes
Main characters:
Sherlock Holmes, the amateur detective, chemist, violin player,
boxer, and swordsman (among other talents), first appeared in
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's A Study in Scarlet in the Beeton's
Christmas Annual in 1887. Holmes is famous for his intellectual
prowess, and is renowned for his skillful use of "deductive
reasoning" while using abductive reasoning (inference to the
best explanation) and astute observation to solve difficult cases.
John Watson is a fictional character, the friend, confidant and
biographer of Sherlock Holmes. In the stories, Watson shared
lodgings with Holmes in large parts of the last two decades of
the 1800s and soon emerged as the assistant and biographer of
the great detective.
The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes is a collection of
twelve stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, featuring his
famous detective and illustrated by Sidney Paget.
The 12 stories in this collection are:
"A Scandal in Bohemia"
"The Red-Headed League"
"A Case of Identity"
"The Boscombe Valley Mystery"
"The Five Orange Pips"
"The Man with the Twisted Lip"
"The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle"
"The Adventure of the Speckled Band"
"The Adventure of the Engineer's Thumb"
"The Adventure of the Noble Bachelor"
"The Adventure of the Beryl Coronet"
"The Adventure of the Copper Beeches"
The Five Orange Pips
A young Sussex gentleman named John Openshaw has a
strange story: in 1869 his uncle Elias Openshaw had suddenly
come back to England to settle on an estate at Horsham, West
Sussex after living for years in the United States as a Planter
in Florida and serving as a Colonel in the Confederate Army.
Not being married, Elias had allowed his nephew to stay at
his estate. One strangeness is that although John could go
anywhere in the house he could never enter a locked room
with his Uncle's trunks. A second strangeness was in March
1883 a letter postmarked from Pondicherry, India arrived for
the Colonel inscribed only "K.K.K." with 5 orange pips (seeds)
enclosed.
More strange things happened: papers from the locked
room were burnt and a will was drawn up leaving the estate to
John Openshaw. The Colonel's behaviour became bizarre-he
would either lock himself in his room and drink or he would go
shouting forth in a drunken sally with a pistol in his hand. On
May 2, 1883 he was found dead in a garden pool.
On January 4, 1885 Elias's brother Joseph receives a
letter postmarked Dundee with the initials "K.K.K" and
instructions to leave papers on the sundial. Despite his son's
urging, Joseph Openshaw refuses to call the police. Three
days later, Joseph Openshaw is found dead in a chalk-pit. The
only clue John Openshaw can furnish Holmes is a page from
his Uncle's diary marked March 1869 in which pips have been
sent to three men, of whom two flee and the third has been
"visted".
Holmes advises Openshaw to leave the diary page with a
note telling of the destruction of the Colonel's papers on the
garden sundial. After Openshaw leaves, Holmes deduces that
from the time between the letter mailings and the deaths of
Elias and his brother that the writer is on a sailing ship.
Holmes also recognizes the "K.K.K" as Ku Klux Klan, an
anti-Reconstruction group in the South until its sudden
collapse in March 1869 -- and theorizes that this collapse was
the result of the Colonel's taking their papers.
The next day there is a newspaper account that the body
of Openshaw has been found in the Thames River and
believed to be an accident. Holmes checks sailing records of
ships who were at both - Pondicherry in January / February
1883 and at Dundee in January 1885 and recognizes a
Georgia. Georgia bark named Lone Star--named after Texas,
a Confederate State. Furthermore Holmes confirms that the
Lone Star had docked in London a week before.
Holmes then sends five orange pips to the captain of the
Lone Star and has the police send a cable to Savannah that
the Captain and two mates are wanted for murder. The Lone
Star never arrives in Savannah; there are severe gales that
year and the only trace of the bark is a signpost marked "L.S."
sighted in the waves.
Thank you for your attention !!!

independent practice. Arriving in Portsmouth in June of that year with less than £10 to his name, he set up a medical practice at 1 Bush Villas in Elm Grove, Southsea. The practice was initially not very successful; while waiting for patients, he again began writing stories. His first significant work was A Study in Scarlet, which appeared in Beeton's Christmas Annual for 1887 and featured the first appearance of Sherlock Holmes, who was partially modelled after his former university professor, Joseph Bell. Future short stories featuring Sherlock Holmes were published in the English Strand Magazine. Interestingly, Rudyard Kipling congratulated Conan Doyle on his success, asking "Could this be my old friend, Dr. Joe?" Sherlock Holmes, however, was even more closely modelled after the famous Edgar Allan Poe character, C. Auguste Dupin.

Charles Dickens Charles John Huffam Dickens was the foremost English novelist of the Victorian era, as well as a vigorous social campaigner. Considered one of the English language's greatest writers, he was acclaimed for his rich storytelling and memorable characters, and achieved massive worldwide popularity in his lifetime. Charles Dickens was born in Landport, Portsmouth in Hampshire, the second of eight children to John Dickens n 7 February 1812. The 12-year-old Dickens began working ten hour days in a Warren's boot-blacking factory. In May 1827, Dickens began work in the office of Ellis and Blackmore as a law clerk. At the age of seventeen, he became a court stenographer and, in 1830, met his first love, Maria Beadnell. Maria's parents disapproved of the courtship and effectively ended the relationship when they sent her to school in Paris. In 1834, Dickens became a political journalist, reporting on parliamentary debate and traveling across Britain by

are fables, using animals in an anthropomorphic manner to give moral lessons. The verses of The Law of the Jungle, for example, lay down rules for the safety of individuals, families and communities. Kipling put in them nearly everything he knew or "heard or dreamed about the Indian jungle." [2] Other readers have interpreted the work as allegories of the politics and society of the time.[3] The best- known of them are the three stories revolving around the adventures of an abandoned "man cub" Mowgli who is raised by wolves in the Indian jungle. The Jungle Book, because of its moral tone, came to be used as a motivational book by the Cub Scouts, a junior element of the Scouting movement. This use of the book's universe was approved by Kipling after a direct petition of Robert Baden-Powell, founder of the Scouting movement, who had originally asked for the author's permission for the use of the Memory
