 | The Chimes |  | |
Title: The Chimes Author: Charles Dickens Category: Classic Description: FIRST QUARTER
There are not many people -- and as it is desirable
that a story-teller and a story-reader should establish
a mutual understanding as soon as possible, I beg it
to be noticed that I confine this observation neither to
young people nor to little people, but extend it to all
conditions of people: little and big, young and old:
yet growing up, or already growing down again --... more... |

 | The Cricket on the Hearth |  | |
Title: The Cricket on the Hearth Author: Charles Dickens Category: Classic Description: CHAPTER I - Chrip the First
THE kettle began it! Don't tell me what Mrs. Peerybingle said. I know better. Mrs. Peerybingle may leave it on record to the end of time that she couldn't say which of them began it; but, I say the kettle did. I ought to know, I hope! The kettle began it, full five minutes by the little waxy-faced Dutch clock in the corner, before the Cricket uttered a chirp.

 | Doctor Marigold |  | |
Title: Doctor Marigold Author: Charles Dickens Category: Classic Description: I am a Cheap Jack, and my own father's name was Willum Marigold. It was in his lifetime supposed by some that his name was William, but my own father always consistently said, No, it was Willum. On which point I content myself with looking at the argument this way: If a man is not allowed to know his own name in a free country, how much is he allowed to know in a land of slavery? As to looking at... more... |

 | Great Expectations |  | |
Title: Great Expectations Author: Charles Dickens Category: Classic Description: Chapter 1
My father's family name being Pirrip, and my Christian name Philip, my infant tongue could make of both names nothing longer or more explicit than Pip. So, I called myself Pip, and came to be called Pip.
I give Pirrip as my father's family name, on the authority of his tombstone and my sister - Mrs. Joe Gargery, who married the blacksmith. As I never saw my father or my mother,... more... |

Title: HIS LAST BOW Author: Arthur Conan Doyle Category: Classic Description: The Adventure of Wisteria Lodge
1. The Singular Experience of Mr. John Scott Eccles
I find it recorded in my notebook that it was a bleak and windy day towards the end of March in the year 1892. Holmes had received a telegram while we sat at our lunch, and he had scribbled a reply. He made no remark, but the matter remained in his thoughts, for he stood in front of the fire afterwards... more... |

Title: Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes Author: Arthur Conan Doyle Category: Adventure, Classic Description: Adventure I
Silver Blaze
"I am afraid, Watson, that I shall have to go," said Holmes, as we sat down together to our breakfast one morning.
"Go! Where to?"
"To Dartmoor; to King's Pyland."
I was not surprised. Indeed, my only wonder was that he had not already been mixed upon this extraordinary case, which was the one topic of conversation through the length and breadth of England.... more... |

 | The Adventures Of Sherlock Holmes |  | |
Title: The Adventures Of Sherlock Holmes Author: Arthur Conan Doyle Category: Adventure, Classic Description: A Scandal in Bohemia
To Sherlock Holmes she is always the woman. I have seldom heard him mention her under any other name. In his eyes she eclipses and predominates the whole of her sex. It was not that he felt any emotion akin to love for Irene Adler. All emotions, and that one particularly, were abhorrent to his cold, precise but admirably balanced mind. He was, I take it, the most perfect... more... |

 | The Hound of the Baskervilles |  | |
Title: The Hound of the Baskervilles Author: Arthur Conan Doyle Category: Adventure, Classic Description: CHAPTER I. MR. SHERLOCK HOLMES.
MR. SHERLOCK HOLMES, who was usually very late in the mornings, save upon those not infrequent occasions when he was up all night, was seated at the breakfast table. I stood upon the hearth-rug and picked up the stick which our visitor had left behind him the night before. It was a fine, thick piece of wood, bulbous-headed, of the sort which is known as a... more... |

 | The Sign Of The Four |  | |
Title: The Sign Of The Four Author: Arthur Conan Doyle Category: Adventure, Classic Description: I. THE SCIENCE OF DEDUCTION.
SHERLOCK HOLMES took his bottle from the corner of the mantel-piece and his hypodermic syringe from its neat morocco case. With his long, white, nervous fingers he adjusted the delicate needle, and rolled back his left shirt-cuff. For some little time his eyes rested thoughtfully upon the sinewy forearm and wrist all dotted and scarred with innumerable... more... |
