Why is Holmes' attention drawn to the ventilator?

___"You saw the ventilator, too?" ___"Yes, but I do not think that it is such a very unusual thing to have a small opening between two rooms. It was so small that a rat could hardly pass through." ___"I knew that we should find a ventilator before ever we came to Stoke Moran." ___"My dear Holmes!" ___"Oh, yes, I did. You remember in her statement she said that her sister could smell Dr. Roylott's cigar. Now, of course that suggests at once that there must be a communication between the two rooms. It could only be a small one, or it would have been remarked upon at the coroner's inquiry. I deduced a ventilator." Sherlock Holmes & Dr. John H. Watson, MD -- 'Adventure of the Speckled Band'

Did Sherlock Holmes returned after he was killed in his story?

There was a story where Sherlock went over the edge of Reichenbach Falls, called "The Final Problem" in the book The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes. It was an attempt by Conan Doyle to eliminate the character, whom he had grown tired of. The public outcry was so great, that he brought him back through a clever plot line.You'll find his return in the story "The Adventure of the Empty House" in the book The Return of Sherlock Holmes.Conan Doyle had written a novel between "The Final Problem" and "The Adventure of the Empty House" called "The Hound of the Baskervilles". (published 1901-02) [worth reading] The plot was set before Holmes' death, so that Conan Doyle would not have to resurrect him. He asked (and got) twice as much per word from his publishers, Smith, Elder & Sons to put Holmes into the plot.The book sold so well that both the Strand Magazine and Colliers in the U.S. made Conan Doyle an offer he did not refuse to bring Holmes back from the 'dead' Thus 'The Return of Sherlock Holmes', 'The Valley of Fear', 'The Casebook of Sherlock Holmes' and 'His Last Bow'.
