A Game of Shadows[]
Following Watson's disastrous bachelor party, Sherlock Holmes drove him in his car to this church for his wedding to Mary. Many of the couple's friends and relations were in attendance, including Mrs Hudson, a number of army men, and Watson's dog Gladstone.
Following the service, Holmes was approached by Sebastian Moran. Moran indicated that Professor Moriarty was expecting to see Holmes that afternoon at Cambridge, following his lectures, and Holmes agreed to go see him.
