Talk:Sir John Appleby

Removed this bit -- Innes returned the compliment in "A Private View" (1952), in which the Duke of Horton is given the family name "Crispin," and a cousin "Gervase," after Crispin's detective, Oxford don Gervase Fen. -- Gervase Crispin is not a nod to Edmund Crispin, but appears in Innes second novel Hamlet, Reveng! EC took his pen name and detective's name from this book.
