    Redmond's Delicate Question

    There are conspicuously old-fashioned elements in this tale -- Holmes's detective work hangs largely on telegrams and on following a horse-drawn carriage by bicycle -- and yet its central feature, the apparent kidnapping of a prominent athlete, is chillingly modern. At the same time, it moves from the broad comedy of Lord Mount-James to the pathos of the final scene. Is the combination effective?
