Synopsis

This collection appeared in book form in two distinct editions, both published in 1904. The Macmillian edition had ten stories; the Scribner's edition had nine (omitting "The Letter"). The two collections also ordered the stories differently; below I use the ordering of the larger Macmillan edition. The links below go to on-line illustrated editions of the stories as they appeared in magazine form. They may be somewhat different from the way they were published in book form.
