SUNDAY, August 7th: On The Road Again!

@ 1:30 pm - TEA TIME  at Baker Streetour new series continues at Tea Time's summer digs at the University of Washington iSchool in SL.  HIS LAST BOW  continues with "The Disappearance of Lady Frances Carfax." 


Holmes sends Dr. Watson to Lausanne to investigate Lady Frances Carfax's disappearance since he himself is too busy in London. Lady Frances is a lone, unwed woman denied a rich inheritance on account of her sex. She does, however, carry valuable jewels with her. It is also her habit to write to her old governess, Miss Dobney, every other week, but for the past five weeks, there has not been a word from her. She has left the Hôtel National for parts unknown. Her last two bank transactions were cheques, one to pay her hotel bill, and another for £50 to her maid, Miss Marie Devine.


In Switzerland, Watson finds out that Lady Frances stayed at the Hôtel International for several weeks, but then suddenly left in a hurry one day. Only one witness could suggest an explanation, one involving a big, bearded man who kept hounding her. It also emerges that Lady Frances's maid has left her employ, although it is not known why.  This is just the first strange occurrence to plague the Lady, who suddenly is nowhere to be found.
