The first publication devoted to Sherlock Holmes, the novella ’A Study in Scarlet’, originally appeared in the November 1887 periodical Beeton’s Christmas Annual. In the beginning chapters, Holmes’ chronicler, Dr. John Watson, meets the eccentric detective and agrees to share lodgings with him at 221B Baker Street in London. Soon after their first meeting, Watson jots down a dozen of Holmes’ “limits.”

Hehe. Astronomy- Nil. ‘IT’S THE SOLAR SYSTEM! HOW CAN YOU NOT KNOW THAT?’
