Doyle. Here is one popular story about him.

One day Conan Doyle was waiting for a ride outside a train station when a taxi stopped

near him. “Where can I take you, Sir Arthur?” the taxi driver asked.

Conan Doyle was surprised. “How did you know my name?” he asked.

“Well,” said the driver, “I read that you were returning from France today. People

returning from France always use this station. There is colour from a pen on your hand,

so this tells me you are a writer. And your clothes are from England, so I think you are

English and you must be Sir Arthur.”

“That’s amazing! You’re a great detective.You’re a real Sherlock Holmes!” said Conan

Doyle.

“Oh! It was easy,” the driver said.
