Original serial publication from The Strand Magazine, Vol. V, January 1893, complete with Paget's iconic illustrations. Chronologically the second of the second series of twelve Holmes short stories later collected as the 'Memoirs' (1894 [1893]), it was omitted (apparently at Doyle's request) from the first and several subsequent editions due possibly to its theme of adultery; it was not published in book form until 'His Last Bow' (1917). Notably, when the tale was omitted from the 'Memoirs', Doyle transferred Holmes' famous thought-reading episode to the beginning of 'The Resident Patient'. Only one of Paget's illustrations is included in the book version. De Waal 33; see Green & Gibson pp.74-76.

PARIS, Albert Savine, 1892 - In-12° - E.O. - Broché - Bien complet du plan dépliant de la place de l'Eglise - 202 pages - Très propre. Vielle cité industrielle du Nord de la France, la ville de Fourmies a atteint son apogée industrielle et démographique à la fin du XIXème siècle grâce au textile. Elle compte alors 15 000 habitants, en majorité des ouvriers. Sa distance la séparant de Paris, nest que de 200 km. A plusieurs reprises, des grèves ont éclaté surtout le 1er Mai. La fusillade de Fourmies s'est déroulée le 1er mai 1891. La troupe tire sur des grévistes pacifiques tuant neuf personnes et faisant au moins 35 blessés. ------- Édouard Drumont, né à Paris le 3 mai 1844 et décédé dans la même ville le 3 février 1917, était un journaliste et écrivain catholique, antisémite et nationaliste français. Charles Maurras, dans son Dictionnaire politique et critique, dit que « la formule nationaliste est ainsi née presque toute entière de lui ; et Daudet, Barrès, nous tous, avons commencé notre ouvrage dans sa lumière. » Plus loin, Charles Maurras ajoute : « Chroniqueur merveilleux, historien voyant et prophète, cet esprit original et libre s'échappait aussi à lui-même. Il ne vit point tout son succès. » Édouard Drumont a été classé par certains comme anarchiste de droite, bien que son attitude vis-à-vis de l'anarchisme ait été ambivalente.
