  • HathiTrust Digital Library provides full view of one copy without original cover: Title page states "New Impression", implying an older impression exists. Contents including page numbers match the 1895 Chatto & Windus collection Village Tales and Jungle Tragedies. The first story begins p[1] under the heading "Village Tales and Jungle Tragedies".

    Probably the 1913 Chatto & Windus and this 1913 Holden & Hardingham are both new impressions of the 1895 Chatto & Windus edition--that is, new impressions subsequent to the title page or title leaf.
  • Hardcover format and price are stated (thus the series implied) in publisher advertisement "Some Fine New Books", The Bookman 1913-09 p279: -- previous 4 listings as "1/- NOVELS" -- this listing as "7d. net. Cloth". -- next two listings as "6d. paper" Evidently this book, and the two next listed, are examples of the new 7-penny hardcover and old 6-penny paper-cover reprint series (known from 1913/1914 newspapers).
  • British Library reports another copy as 1919, {{BL|000822524}}.
