The Memoirs Of Sherlock Holmes: Sherlock Holmes #5 - 9781548245610

The first U.S. edition included the story, but it was very quickly replaced with a revised edition that omitted it.The reasoning behind the suppression is unclear. In Britain the story was apparently removed at Doyle's request as it included adultery and so was unsuitable for younger readers. This may have also been the cause for the rapid removal of the story from the U.S. edition, and some sources[specify] state that the publishers believed the story was too scandalous for the American public.
