Percy Phelps was an old schoolmate of John Watson and employee of the British government. Thanks to the influence of Lord Holdhurst, his uncle and Foreign Secretary, he was given a responsible position in the Foreign Office. and was Sherlock Holmes' client. When a secret treaty between the UK and Italy was stolen from his office, he wrote to Watson asking for Sherlock Holmes' help in recovering the missing document before the loss became known (with catastrophic and international ramifications). Watson recounted this story in "The Adventure of the Naval Treaty".
