Note
The story by Frances Acton is listed in Bleiler, The Checklist of Science-Fiction and Supernatural Fiction (1978), as published by Nimmo's Popular Tales, 1866; subject codes "Ghosts, hauntings". Meagre coverage in newspaper notices and advertisements, and in library records, shows Nimmo's Popular Tales to be a series of anthologies. British Library records generally cover the stories individually. For volume 2 (scheduled to be ready on the first of July, from newspapers), ten works are catalogued (BL, below) as "In : Nimmo (William P.) Nimmo's Popular Tales, etc. vol. 2. 1866, etc. 8º.", or equivalent. Records of the other nine stories are BL 002122206 (title story, from newspapers) and BL 001749584 002527029 003627043 002706342 000259884 002437913 001495379 001407574.
Vol. I of Nimmo's Popular Tales contains 10 stories. Meagre coverage in newspaper notices and advertisements, and in library records, shows that others of eventually 12 volumes contain multiple stories.
