    • The titles and sequence of five Contents are copied from the ISFDB record of Project Gutenberg Ebook #9956 (see at ISFDB).

      Project Gutenberg does not identify a source text and the ebook does not contain a title page transcript, nor a list of contents. Its Preface closes "Vernon Lee" over "Maiano, near Florence, June 1989." Its title leaf displays four lines:   Hauntings   Fantastic Stories   Vernon Lee   1890 and it closes with these four lines, probably a transcript of the only printed back page in the source publication:   Other books by Vernon Lee   Fiction   Miss Brown   Baldwin

      In the ebook, "Oke of Okehurst" comprises a letter To Count Peter Boutourline from Vernon Lee, Kensington, July 1886; and ten sections numbered 1 to 10.
