Arthur Conan Doyle (英語), The Adventure of the Cardboard Box, ウィキソースより閲覧, "We had a pleasant little meal together, during which Holmes would talk about nothing but violins, narrating with great exultation how he had purchased his own Stradivarius, which was worth at least five hundred guineas, at a Jew broker’s in Tottenham Court Road for fifty-five shillings."
Arthur Conan Doyle (英語), The Field Bazaar, ウィキソースより閲覧, "You will not, I am sure, be offended if I say that any reputation for sharpness which I may possess has been entirely gained by the admirable foil which you have made for me. Have I not heard of debutantes who have insisted upon plainness in their chaperones? There is a certain analogy."
