description: (set Aug 1912)Editors note: This account of one of the minor cases tackled by Edwardian sleuths Coppersmith and Stewart (or Stewart and Coppersmith as the narrator always referred to them) was recently unearthed among the papers they bequeathed to the nation. Their biographer Mrs. Cochrane would be honoured to publish it here in tribute to the forthcoming cricket test series between Australia and England.The story itself is unusual in being related in the first person something Dr. Stewart always swore hed never do as it smacked of Dr. Watson. As Mrs. Cochrane says you should never trust a word he says the little toad.This match referred to was real; it took place at Kennington Oval London on 19th 20th 21st 22nd August 1912. Please note that England won by 244 runs.
