Short Fiction Various: Past Masters Three, (2020), V1, 31 Jan 2020

[Pulpmeister]

A collection of short stories in the Life +70 Public Domain, for which I could not find any digital Collection I could use to house them. The Marbug stories were collected in a volume "The Oracle of Maddox Street", with a number of other short stories to fill it out, but the collection is rare.

Dianna Marbug: The Oracle of Maddox Street
L T Meade and Robert Eustace

1: The Dead Hand
2: Finger Tips
3: Sir Penn Caryll's Engagement

Other Waifs and Strays: these are individual short stories for which again I could find no usable collection:


4: Making £10,000 / Talbot Mundy
5: Acme / John Galsworthy
6: Volcano-Mad / Earl Derr Biggers
7: A Royal Dilemma / E. Phillips Oppenheim

C J Cutcliffe Hyne: prolific writer, famous for Captain Kettle, but also author of many stand-alone short stories. These were all culled from Australian newspapers, available on-line via TROVE. They were most likely published in British and US magazines and papers also.

9: Gregory Of Byzantium
10: A Marriage Of Convenience
11: A Lottery Duel

13: The Perfumer
14: The Ship-Breaker's Yard
