The Duke of Holdernesse may well be "one of the greatest subjects of
the Crown", but as a warm human being he seems to rank with Lord Mount-James
of "The Missing Three-Quarter". Indeed, few members of the nobility are seen
to advantage in the adventures of Sherlock Holmes, although we know that hearts
just as brave and fair may beat in Belgrave Square as in the lowlier air of
Seven Dials. Why?
