DID SHERLOCK HOLMES EXIST?
One evening, about the turn of the last century, several guests sat around a dinner table
discussing famous murders and unsolved crimes. One of the guests, Dr Joseph Bell, a famous
Edinburgh surgeon and university professor, surprised the others with his unusual deductive
abilities.
"The trouble with most people", he said, "is that they see, but do not observe. Any really
good detective ought to be able to tell, before a stranger has sat down, his occupation, habits, and
past history through rapid observation and deduction. Glance at a man and you find his nationality
written on his face, his means of living on his hands, and the rest of the story in his gait
1
, manners,
tattoo marks, and clothes".
One of the guests remarked, "Why, Dr Bell might almost be Sherlock Holmes". "My dear
sir, I am Sherlock Holmes", Dr Bell said. Dr Bell was not joking. He was, indeed, the original
Sherlock Holmes, the prototype for the famous Conan Doyle's creation. As you might know, Arthur
Conan Doyle studied to be a doctor at the University of Edinburgh. While at University, Doyle was
greatly influenced by Joseph Bell, one of his professors.
Dr Bell was famous for his keen

powers of observation

and deduction. He could diagnose

a patient's disease just by observing him.
Dr Bell's lectures always filled the hall. The students admired him and thought him a
magician. Bell never failed to surprise them.
Dr Bell's detecting genius was known to the police. He worked хэнд in хэнд with Sir Henry
Littlejohn, Edinburgh police surgeon, and helped to solve several complicated crimes. When Arthur
Conan Doyle decided to write his first detective story he remembered Dr Bell. He called him
Sherlock Holmes.
