In the phrase "to buzz forth doleful lamentations", the word "buzz" is an example of an onomatopoeia. Basically, it means that the sound of bees flying or "buzzing" expresses a melancholy expression. This could be considered an onomatopoeia, but it also is used to say the bees "spoke" which implies that they "buzzed" as in it was their way of speaking, diction if you will. The whole sentence is "<span>At length, as if comprehending their disaster, they settled down in clusters on a dry branch of a neighboring tree, whence they seemed to contemplate the prostrate ruin, and to </span>buzz forth doleful lamentations<span> over the downfall of their republic" which clearly says they SEEMED, which rules out diction as an answer. So, the answer should be onomatopoeia. </span>Hope this helps!

Answer: C) onomatopoeia.

March - April

Holmes refers to "the singular experience of Miss Mary Sutherland..."

Late March / Early April

A Case of Identity took place in June 1889.

March - April of 1890

The Copper Beeches was published in June 1892.

1892 or later

The only case in 1891 was The Final Problem.

Not in 1891

Holmes was missing and presumed dead from May 1891 until April 1894.

Was not 1892

Violet Hunter says, "...two nights later...It was a beautiful moonlight night..."

She arrived in England before April 11 1890

There was no moon in the sky in England from April 11 to April 25, 1890.

She arrived in England before April 11 1890

Watson says, "A fortnight went by...The telegram which we eventually received came late one night..."

Holmes and Watson arrived in England 15 days after Violet Hunter

Holmes and Watson went to Winchester on the day following the telegram's arrival.

Holmes and Watson arrived in Winchester following Violet Hunter visited Baker Street

During her visit to Baker Street, Violet Hunter says, "I shall...start for Winchester tomorrow...."

Holmes and Watson arrived in Winchester 14 days after Violet arrived there

Watson says, "...it was just seven when we reached the Copper Beeches...in the light of the setting sun..."

Holmes and Watson arrived in Winchester April 20, 1890 or later in the year

The sun set before 7 p.m. on April 19 and the days preceding.

Holmes and Watson arrived in Winchester April 20, 1890 or later in the year

On the day Violet Hunter first visited Holmes, Watson says, "...Sherlock Holmes, tossing aside the advertisement sheet of the Daily Telegraph..."

Received daily telegraph

    15. The Daily Telegraph was not delivered on Sunday.

Violet didn’t go on Sunday

    16. April 6, 1890 was a Sunday.

Violet Hunter did not visit Baker Street on April 6, 1890

    17. Watson says, "Holmes had been buried in the morning papers all the way down..."

Didn’t come on a Sunday

     18. April 20, 1890 was a Sunday.
