French and Sherlock Holmes

“an autograph letter of thanks from the French” [GOLD]

From quoting French philosophers to referencing French detectives and from earning French accolades and casually revealing French relatives, Sherlock Holmes was well versed with all things French. It’s just a Trifle.
