This issue marked the first publication of a Holmes story in Collier's with the story being published prior to The Strand Magazine (which published it in October 1903). "Public pressure forced Conan Doyle to bring the sleuth back to life, and explain his apparently miraculous survival after his deadly struggle with Professor Moriarty in "The Final Problem."
