Oh yeah, I'm pretty sure I've seen that in other books of that period as well, but I meant that that's the only way that Watson says cool things about himself, not that it's a way of writing specific to the SH stories. ;)

Also LOLOLOL at that paragraph. ACD would never write anything so flowery, but that could fit almost perfectly into the mouth of a character from, like, Oscar Wilde.

True; I was rather thinking about ACD's intentions - maybe it wasn't a deliberately crafted part of Watson's characterization so much as a "man how do u start a story" case. Which is, of course, authorial intent and stuff *sighs*. My attraction to the matters of authorial intent shall be the ruin of me, I feel.

But on a lower meta-level, certainly. Watson is a humble fellow :D
