"Архив Шерлока Холмса" (1921-1927) – последний сборник рассказов Дойля о знаменитом сыщике. За семь лет совместного существования Холмс начал тяготить Дойля. В 1893 году в рассказе «Последнее дело Холмса» автор пытался покончить со своим героем, предав его смерти. Поклонники сыщика, чей интерес только возрастал, были возмущены. Волею судеб в 1901 году Дойль услышал легенды о гигантской собаке-привидении, а так как выдумывать нового героя было ни к чему, он воскресил Холмса, чтобы уже не расставаться с ним до конца своих дней. Так жизнь сыщика растянулась на два сборника рассказов: последовал сборник «Возвращение Шерлока Холмса», а за ним – «Архив Шерлока Холмса». Читает молодой американский актер Бенджамин Сарджент на английском языке.

Мой друг, рядовой Мельваней, был одним из этих часовых, так как он принадлежал к числу самых рослых малых в полку. В разгаре танцев часовых освободили, и Мельваней пошел помогать сержанту, который заведовал ужином…»
