Fer instance, here are the very first lines of the novel, The Valley of Fear: __________________
"I am inclined to think—" said I.
"I should do so," Sherlock Holmes remarked impatiently.
I believe that I am one of the most long-suffering of mortals; but I'll admit that I was annoyed at the sardonic interruption. "Really, Holmes," said I severely, "you are a little trying at times."
He was too much absorbed with his own thoughts to give any immediate answer to my remonstrance. _________________
Oh, Watson, poor dear. It's a dysfunctional relationship. I could give you a prosthetic spine, but I think you're too far gone for that.
