Notes:
- Reginald1 has this as a novel.
- Bleiler's "Science-Fiction: The Early Years" lists only "The Ape People", but also mentions that the collection consists of "Mostly short supernatural stories".
- The remaining contents have not been found in secondary sources. Update on 03/16/2022 (by Username): This link, http://www.philsp.com/homeville/fmi/l/ll00124.htm#A10, likely lists all dozen stories in this collection; 1 story has the same title as the collection, and it's mentioned here, https://www.fanac.org/fanzines/Erbania/Erbania03.pdf, and in an ad from The Bookman, Christmas 1922 (viewable on Google Books) that the main character is Bruce Logan.
