 In the year 1878 I took my degree of Doctor of Medicine of the University of London, and proceeded to Netley to go through the course prescribed for surgeons in the army. Having completed my studies there, I was duly attached to the Fifth Northumberland Fusiliers as Assistant Surgeon. The regiment was stationed in India at the time, and before I could join it, the second Afghan war had broken out. On landing at Bombay, I learned that my corps had advanced through the passes, and was already deep in the enemy’s country. I followed, however, with many other officers who were in the same situation as myself, and succeeded in reaching Candahar in safety, where I found my regiment, and at once entered upon my new duties. The campaign brought honours and promotion to many, but for me it had nothing but misfortune and disaster. I was removed from my brigade and attached to the Berkshires, with whom I served at the fatal battle of Maiwand. There I was struck on the shoulder by a Jezail bullet, which shattered the bone and grazed the subclavian artery. I should have fallen into the hands of the murderous Ghazis had it not been for the devotion and courage shown by Murray, my orderly, who threw me across a pack-horse, and succeeded in bringing me safely to the British lines. 1 A Study in Scarlet 2 The Sign of Four The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes 3 A Scandal in Bohemia 4 The Red-Headed League 5 A Case of Identity 6 The Boscombe Valley Mystery 7 The Five Orange Pips 8 The Man with the Twisted Lip 9 The Adventure of the Blue Carbuncle 10 The Adventure of the Speckled Band 11 The Adventure of the Engineer's Thumb 12 The Adventure of the Noble Bachelor 13 The Adventure of the Beryl Coronet 14 The Adventure of the Copper Beeches The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes 15 The Adventure of Silver Blaze 16 The Adventure of the Cardboard Box 17 The Adventure of the Yellow Face 18 The Adventure of the Stockbroker's Clerk 19 The Adventure of the Gloria Scott 20 The Adventure of the Musgrave Ritual 21 The Adventure of the Reigate Squire 22 The Adventure of the Crooked Man 23 The Adventure of the Resident Patient 24 The Adventure of the Greek Interpreter 25 The Adventure of the Naval Treaty 26 The Adventure of the Final Problem 27 The Field Bazaar 28 The Hound of the Baskervilles The Return of Sherlock Holmes 29 The Adventure of the Empty House 30 The Adventure of the Norwood Builder 31 The Adventure of the Dancing Men 32 The Adventure of the Solitary Cyclist 33 The Adventure of the Priory School 34 The Adventure of Black Peter 35 The Adventure of Charles Augustus Milverton 36 The Adventure of the Six Napoleons 37 The Adventure of the Three Students 38 The Adventure of the Golden Pince-Nez 39 The Adventure of the Missing Three-Quarter 40 The Adventure of the Abbey Grange 41 The Adventure of the Second Stain His Last Bow 42 The Adventure of Wisteria Lodge 43 The Adventure of the Bruce-Partington Plans 44 The Adventure of the Devil's Foot 45 The Adventure of the Red Circle 46 The Disappearance of Lady Frances Carfax 47 The Adventure of the Dying Detective 49 His Last Bow 48 The Valley of Fear The Case-Book of Sherlock Holmes 50 The Adventure of the Mazarin Stone 51 The Problem of Thor Bridge 52 The Adventure of the Creeping Man 53 The Adventure of the Sussex Vampire 54 How Watson Learned the Trick 55 The Adventure of the Three Garridebs 56 The Adventure of the Illustrious Client 57 The Adventure of the Three Gables 58 The Adventure of the Blanched Soldier 59 The Adventure of the Lion's Mane 60 The Adventure of the Retired Colourman 61 The Adventure of the Veiled Lodger 62 The Adventure of Shoscombe Old Place |
