About this listen

John Huxford's Hiatus is a short story written by Arthur Conan Doyle first published anonymously in The Cornhill Magazine in June 1888.

Brisport, England. Recently unemployed, John Huxford accepts an offer to work at Sheridan & Moore, Montreal in Quebec. He agrees with his fiancée that he will first travel alone to prepare everything for a few weeks before she can join him. Unfortunately, weeks, months pass and she gets no news from John. Sheridan & Moore even say they never saw him in Montreal. Many years pass, and it seems that he has died somewhere or started a new life.
