CONCLUSION:
J. Stuart Holden tells of a stain on the wall of a room in a Scottish mansion
caused by the spilling of a pitcher of soda water. While everyone else was
out, a noted artist who was a guest used the stain as the outline for a
waterfall and created a beautiful charcoal drawing on the wall.
