A newspaper advice columnist called Aunt Lottie visits Sherlock Holmes.
He is in fact a man called Alex Doogle who is sporting a black eye and a stiff back.
Alex has received a beating from Jack Murdock. He is a violent man whose fiancee wrote to Aunt Lottie for advice about her short tempered husband to be.
Sherlock Holmes finds himself having to protect Alex and the bride to be. He is sure that Murdock has an accomplice and needs to draw them out.
Alex recognises Murdock as a swindler, he is certainly not a man of independent means. Holmes thinks that Murdock has committed murder.
I reckon if you need to write to a columnist for advice about your fiance's bad temper. It is better to stay away.
As for Alex, there was no one at the newspaper to protect him when Murdock burst in.
There is romance as Alex takes a shine to the bride to be.
