Inspector Gregson
He is a Scotland Yard inspector who has appeared in a number of the Sherlock Holmes novels and short stories. He was first introduced in A Study in Scarlet; his other appearances include The Adventure of Wisteria Lodge and The Adventure of the Red Circle. Stout and pig-headed, Inspector Gregson comes to Holmes frequently with confusing cases that are far too puzzling for him to solve alone.
Holmes declares him to be "the smartest of the Scotland Yarders," but given Holmes' opinion of the Scotland Yard detectives, this is not sweeping praise. In one of the stories Watson specifically mentions the callous and cool way in which Gregson moved. His rival in crimefighting at Scotland Yard is Inspector G. Lestrade.

NOVEL (SONNET 18)
Thou art more lovely and more temperate;
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer's lease hath all too short a date;
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,
And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature's changing course untrimm'd;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade,
Nor lose possession of that fair thou ow'st;
Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou grow'st:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.
