Can clearly see Orion. ❤

I thought I would ask what people thought of my overall plan for these posts. The purpose of the posts was not to provide "great performances" of the works. It was an introduction into the actual text versions of these stories. We can find dramatizations -- including some really great versions of various Holmes stories. But the stories were written to be read, and read by people with better knowledge than me. I know bits and pieces about the culture written about, but I did not study it heavily. Sir A. Conan Doyle wrote more for his contemporary British audience than either with intention to spread around the world or hoping to leave great works for future generations. My intention has always been to encourage people to find their own copies and read the stories for oneself. Note: _A contemporary of Sir A C Doyle would have been photographer "Alfred Stieglitz", so you can get some idea of life was like around that time. [added 2023-10-30 __16:10__.]_ That brings me to this question: How do people feel about me stopping in "mid-story"? As a matter of curiosity, I think people might want to hear my read of the text to the end, but really, it was never necessary. If you start into a story reading along with me, then you can decide for yourselves if you want to continue reading a particular story, or wait for me to post something at some later date. I have found PDF's for the Holmes stories. So it is pretty much "free". Does anyone mind if I stop "here" for now and move on to start into another story?

Such a noisy city.
