About this book

The Gully of Bluemansdyke, and Other Stories is a book by Arthur Conan Doyle. A note says that a small edition of the book was published in 1889 under the title Mysteries and Adventures. The contents list The Parson of Jackman's Gulch, The Silver Hatchet, The Man from Archangel, That Little Square Box and A Night Among the Nihilists, among others.

Under the heading A True Colonial Story, Broadhurst's store is closed, but the little back room looks very comfortable that night, with the fire casting a ruddy glow on ceiling and walls. The text says the colonial trooper of fifteen or twenty years ago was a very different man from his representative of to-day. A dark figure pursues Strauss, who plods sturdily through the snow humming snatches of a student song, and the figure is forty yards behind him at the Grand Platz, twenty at the Julien Platz and ten in Stephen Strasse.
