Question: What year was the crime novel written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle written, featuring Sherlock Holmes?

Context paragraphs:
Richard Cabell: Richard Cabell (d.5 July 1677), of Brook Hall, in the parish of Buckfastleigh on the south-western edge of Dartmoor, in Devon, is believed to be the inspiration for the wicked Hugo Baskerville, "the first of his family to be hounded to death when he hunted an innocent maiden over the moor by night", one of the central characters in Conan Doyle's novel "The Hound of the Baskervilles" (1901-2), the tale of a hellish hound and a cursed country squire.  When asked in 1907 about his inspiration for the novel Conan Doyle wrote in reply: ""My story was really based on nothing save a remark of my friend Fletcher Robinson's that there was a legend about a dog on the moor connected with some old family"".  Cabell's tomb survives in the village of Buckfastleigh.

The Adventure of the Gloria Scott: The “Gloria Scott”, one of the 56 Sherlock Holmes short stories written by British author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, is one of 12 stories in the cycle collected as "The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes".  It is chronologically the earliest case in Sherlock Holmes canon.  This story is related mainly by Holmes rather than Watson, and is the first case to which Holmes applied his powers of deduction, having treated it as a mere hobby until this time.  This is one of the two Sherlock Holmes stories in which a protagonist is haunted by an old acquaintance for an old crime.  The other is "The Boscombe Valley Mystery."

Professor Moriarty: Professor James Moriarty is a fictional character and the main antagonist in some of the Sherlock Holmes stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.  Moriarty is a criminal mastermind whom Holmes describes as the "Napoleon of crime".  Doyle lifted the phrase from a Scotland Yard inspector who was referring to Adam Worth, a real-life criminal mastermind and one of the individuals upon whom the character of Moriarty was based.  The character was introduced primarily as a narrative device to enable Doyle to kill Sherlock Holmes, and only featured in two of the Sherlock Holmes stories.  However, in many adaptations, he has been given a greater prominence and treated as Holmes' archenemy.

Sherlock Holmes and the Baskerville Curse: Sherlock Holmes and the Baskerville Curse is a 1983 Australian film directed by Eddie Graham.  It is an adaptation of Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's novel "The Hound of the Baskervilles", the third of his novels featuring Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson.

The Adventure of the Empty House: "The Adventure of the Empty House", one of the 56 Sherlock Holmes short stories written by British author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, is one of 13 stories in the cycle collected as "The Return of Sherlock Holmes".

Doyle ranked "The Adventure of the Empty House" sixth in his list of his twelve favorite Holmes stories.

The Return of Sherlock Holmes (1929 film): The Return of Sherlock Holmes is a 1929 American Pre-Code mystery film directed by Basil Dean and written by Arthur Conan Doyle, Basil Dean and Garrett Fort.

Sherlock Holmes and his companion Dr. Watson investigate the case.  This was the first appearance of Holmes since his apparent death in "The Final Problem", and the success of "The Hound of the Baskervilles" led to the character's eventual revival.

Sherlock Holmes and the Secret Weapon: Sherlock Holmes and the Secret Weapon (1942) is the fourth in the Basil Rathbone/Nigel Bruce series of 14 Sherlock Holmes films which updated the characters created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle to the present day.  The film is credited as an adaptation of Conan Doyle's short story "The Adventure of the Dancing Men," though the only element from the source material is the dancing men code.  Rather, it is a spy film taking place on the background of the then ongoing Second World War with an original premise.  The film concerns the kidnapping of a Swiss scientist by their nemesis Professor Moriarty, to steal a new bomb sight and sell it to Nazi Germany.  Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson have to crack a secret code in order to save the country.  The film is one of four films in the series which are in the public domain.
