June Meeting

                “…I have always had an idea that I would have made a highly efficient criminal.”
                          -- Sherlock Holmes in “The Adventure of Charles Augustus Milverton”     

But there is nothing criminal in this exercise, an evening of dinner, fellowship and the sharing of Sherlockiana with the storied and legendary Amateur Mendicant Society of Detroit

Saturday, June 1, 2019
6:00 p.m.
The Commonwealth Club

Our assigned story and brief discussion is on “The Adventure of Charles Augustus Milverton,” in which Holmes and Watson work to defeat a blackmailer – until fate steps in and plays a hand.
