[edit] "Baxter" quote

In the second to last paragraph is the following:

"God help us!" said Holmes after a long silence. "Why does fate play such tricks with poor, helpless worms? I never hear of such a case as this that I do not think of Baxter's words, and say, 'There, but for the grace of God, goes Sherlock Holmes.'"

I believe the "There but for the grace of God," line is actually by John Bradford, but I don't have a hard copy to verify whether Doyle actually wrote Baxter or if that's a typo. -Andy 18:07, 12 July 2007 (UTC)
