Houghton, Mifflin editions were published no earlier than 1880 but many records report copyright date 1871; or infer or guess publication date 1871, perhaps from copyright data.
Six stories were published in <i>The Atlantic Monthly</i> during 1870 and the magazine's publisher (Fields, Osgood in 1870) was reorganized as Osgood in January 1871.
