'The Stone Coffin', 1913

 File
Reference Code: GBR/0272/MRJ/B/3
Scope and Contents

Galley proof of a ghost story to be published in 'The Magdalene College Magazine', Dec. 1913; with one pencil correction and a pencil note by A. F. Scholfield. On stylistic grounds alone this would seem to have been written by A. C. Benson (there is a letter B written in ink at the end, as if to stand as a signature); the nature of the magazine encourages this view.

Dates: 1913
