Calligraphy

My Dear Watson,

Prudence, in the form of my brother Mycroft, has dictated that I eschew your hospitality for a time. It is not, believe me, due to any fault of that hospitality; you have kept me as comfortable as my injuries would allow. But my presence is a danger to everyone in this house. Merridew may reserve his animosity for you, but his chief backer is too intelligent not to identify me as the cause of his difficulties.

I don't know when I shall return, and it's just as well you don't know either. Until then, take precautions.

Holmes

Guess I'm a little slow on the uptake (you already suspected that, I know!). I thought the note was probably from the bad guys, not from Holmes. I'm glad he has Bunter and some of the boys with him, as well as Mycroft looking out for him. Let's hope Holmes's plan worked, to draw Moriarty away from Watson, although I hardly think that's a good thing for Holmes...

Oh dear, now one wonders about the supposed thug that Watson pummeled in the attic.

Holmes, you're so exasperatingly correct. This is why I love you.
