This was precisely done, couldn't have been easier to follow, thank you! Does your firm deal with estate jewelry, antiquarian? I've been searching for a specific Georgian or Victorian piece...
He was waiter when he met her ... and half her age. He didn't know her during the period he's describing in such detail. He married her when she was 87 and unable to remember what day it was. He overspent (her money) while she was still alive and wound up with a third of her substantial estate. Why is Doyle representing this fraud?
Why did they just have 26 keys for letters, why didn't they also have keys for the numbers 0 to 9, for a total number of keys of 36, total number of lamps of 36, number of roter teeth 36 etc. Obviously it would be hard to add more lamps, keys, roter teeth and plug board holes increasing them all from 26 to 36, but that increase would give you the ability to send numbers as well as words. I guess without that to send a number you must type out the word of the number, so to send 273 you would need to send the message "two seven three".
The German military took the commercial machine and tweaked it slightly, so you'll need to go back to the 1920s to ask the inventor that. I don't know Morse, but I suspect numbers take a lot of keying and as letters could encypher to numbers, an approx 2/5 or 40% of a message could end up as numbers requiring more transmission with greater chance of error. However the amount of numbers in a message could be quite small so you're trading convenience of plaintext for increased cypher text length in morse code. A "shift" system for numbers could possibly be used, but you want to avoid giving hints to eavesdroppers, along with worrying about how you handle the unshift being lost. Spelling numbers has the advantage that any errors in transmission/reception can be easily corrected (at expense of message length).
