      It’s where King David assaulted Bathsheba and had her husband Uriah (one of his best soldiers) killed in battle. The story is told in the 11th and 12th chapters of Second Samuel. You can Google them; since the whole story won’t fit in the comment box.

    Lovely narration again, and a merciful lack, for the most part, of ACD's casual racisim, chauvanism and gender bias that mar many of these otherwise excellent stories for the modern ear. They, like we, are a product of their times, so allowances must be made.

      Yeah true enough, though Victorian England has to be forgiven some of the faults which it had, considering that the time allowed child labour and enormous cruelty in general- I have to say, I was impressed by the conclusion of the yellow face- a way ahead of its time imo, really pleasant, I was worried near the end that it would've been different- I think that ACD sometimes expressed rather elegant and correct ideas, in a way that a deeply bigoted county could understand.
