I have been unable to trace previous publications of "The Ghost's Story" and "The Telegram" although from correspondence it would appear that the former was offered to the B.B.C. (3rd. June 1940) for possible broadcast use, but was declined. It seems to have been published in a Danish magazine, "Magasinet", around August 1956. The latter later appeared in: Modern Scottish Short Stories | F.Urquhart and G.Gordon, eds. | Hamish Hamilton | London | 1978 | pp. [1] - 6. ["The Ghost's Story" appeared in: Ken, A Book of Fact & Fiction | Scoop Books Limited | Glasgow | n.d. | pp. 52 - 59.
