| - In the story, an important secret document is stolen from the office of Percy Phelps, a clerk at the Foreign Office, when he leaves it unattended. The police are unable to recover the document and have no clue as to who might have taken it. Through their mutual friend, Dr. Watson, Percy Phelps requests help from the brilliant consulting detective Sherlock Holmes. In the opening paragraph of "The Adventure of the Naval Treaty", Watson says that the case was one of three of Sherlock Holmes' investigations with which he was involved in the July following his marriage. Another one which Watson names is "The Adventure of the Second Stain". Watson says that it will be impossible for him to write about "The Adventure of the Second Stain" until after the start of the 20th century because it, "deals with interests of such importance and implicates so many of the first families in the kingdom". Eleven years after the first publication of "The Adventure of the Naval Treaty", in December 1904, a Sherlock Holmes story called "The Adventure of the Second Stain" was published. "The Adventure of the Naval Treaty" has been adapted for radio and television.
