The chapbook title --above, fashioned with two commas, exclamation mark, and no colon-- matches the title page of the 1847 Louisville, Kentucky, pamphlet. (see) It also matches the title/heading of WorldCat library record OCLC 23784904 alone, where other WorldCat records (and Bleiler probably) fashion the title with a colon and no commas or one; and some omit the exclamation mark.
The novelette title and credit (below) match the chapbook title and credit, and thus the Louisville title page. The 24-page Louisville pamphlet contains the lecture text under a heading whose title and credit both differ from the title page.
