Although the title suggests a farewell appearance, happily, instead, these eight stories comprise still another segment in Dr. Watson's entertaining memoirs of his friend, Sherlock Holmes.

Among the puzzles here unraveled by the great detective are THE ADVENTURE OF WISTERIA LODGE (a most unnowery bower); and THE DIS- APPEARANCE OF LADY FRANCES CARFAX (Holmes sends Watson to Switzerland on this case, with the memorable comment, "...it is best that I should not leave the country. Scotland Yard feels lonely without me, and it causes an unhealthy excitement among the criminal classes.")
