Episode 75 - Nummi in Arca, or The Fiscal Holmes

"I pocket my fee" [STUD]

How much money did Sherlock Holmes make from his clients? And when did he begin making money?  

We went back to an early piece of Sherlockian scholarship by Robert Keith Leavitt, first published in Vincent Starrett's 221B: Studies in Sherlock Holmes for inspiration. We run through Leavitt's assessment, commenting on certain cases and even finding a few points where we disagree with his analysis.
