DC191 A Study In Baltic - Spring 1902 - A Case Of Identity
The letter had been announced as from Mr. Holmes and Watson eagerly took it up to see the contents. The writing was in his friends clear, crisp hand, and as usual was direct and straight to the point.
'Watson,
The difficulties you described in acquiring passage to the Baltic were present but easily overcome by a man of my trifling abilities. Forgoing the usual passenger lines, I acquired a cabin in the freighter Calhammer bound for Oslo and leaving on Tuesday. The trick will be in finding passage back, especially with the merry Mrs. Watson in tow. However, as I will be accompanying you I have no doubt that we will find something quite suitable at the time.
Yours,
Holmes.
PS - The news of the latest Polish excursions into southern Russia is quite exhilarating. One has to wonder what face and identity our Polish friends displayed in order to get the good Tsar to trust them to such a degree... '
Watson folded the letter, and sat to write one of his own to his wife - letting her know that they would soon be on their way... With Holmes aide, he was sure that they would be able to spirit her home from the Baltic in no time.

Heya guys,
Finland and Russia continue to stymie each other while the Poles mount a daring expedition into Riga. Meanwhile, the Swedes look to their southern border, while at the same time managing to keep eyes in the north as well.
No retreats are required, so we move right on into Fall 1902. With one of our members currently on vacation, we'll set the deadline for a little longer than a week and have all moves in by Tuesday, July 8th (11:59 PM GMT).
Please let me know if you spot any errors. Cheers!
