At last, the incredible account of Sherlock Holmes’ investigation into the brutal murder of Canon Alfred Lilly and the secrets of the Jericho Manuscript can finally be published. Although Holmes’ faithful friend, Dr. John Watson, gave strict instructions that his account should not be released till a hundred years after his death in 1924, it has not made the astonishing discoveries any less explosive now as they were when written in 1901.

LETTER FOUND WITH THE JERICHO MANUSCRIPT
I have written in full one of the most extraordinary episodes of investigation completed by my friend Sherlock Holmes. But because of the sensitive nature of the material I have instructed that this should not be published for one hundred years after my death. While my friend has no such compulsion, almost dismissing the extraordinary results as elementary. He clearly does not realise the controversial nature of his discoveries, so controversial that it could well lead to attempts on his very person. I cannot even tell my good wife as it would, like many others, disrupt the foundation of her life and attack her very soul.
I cannot imagine the world a hundred years from now. Will the British Empire have spread ‘wider still and wider’ as Elgar suggests or has the recently united German states threaten to create a new empire. Their victory over the French has puffed them up to be looking for a fight with anyone to show off their new German superiority. Who will be the King of England then, and what type of government will we have? But most importantly, how will these astonishing discoveries made by my friend be accepted in this new world?
Holmes refuses to enter into any discussion concerning the material, he simply says in his usual offhand manner, “it is elementary my dear friend, so others can easily discover the truth for themselves.”
So my future reader I place before you the account of the case of Canon Alfred Lilly with nothing removed or edited and I hope it is not so shocking to you as it was to me and would be to any reader in our days.
Dr. J. Watson
