![]() After a brief, random fit of hysterical laughter and a glass of brandy, Hatherley calms down and admits that he's had a horrible shock.His name is Victor Hatherley, and he's a hydraulic engineer – someone who works on designs related to fluid mechanics, such as pumps, turbines, canals, dams, and bridges. He apologizes for coming so early, but he has just arrived by train after a serious accident the night before.The new patient is a young guy, around 25, dressed in tweed and holding a bloody handkerchief over his hand. ![]() A guard, an old friend of Watson's, says he's brought him a new patient and then takes off without waiting for thanks. One morning at around 7am, two men come to his house/office from nearby Paddington Train Station.This would be soon after Watson's marriage, when he's working on expanding his medical practice.Watson has only brought Holmes two cases in his life and this is one of them, a particularly weird problem that emerges during the summer of 1889. ![]()
