Notes:
- Publ date (inferred) and price from listing The Observer 1910-07-17 p6 among "Stanley Paul's Recent 6/- Fiction"; review The Scotsman p2 under "Fiction" (positive)
- The Scotsman review names none of the stories but reports "a 'devil's dozen' stories" (13) and describes the first, which reveals that it is "The Five Senses". SFE3 identifies "The Five Senses" and no other. SFE: Encyclopedia of Fantasy identifies none of "5 stories from Grim Tales plus 6 newer stories" (11).
