Short Fiction Various: Past Masters 123, v1, 12 April 2023

25 short stories in several genres, all in the Life + 70 public domain, gathered from newspapers and magazines and in many cases republished here for the first time. I have added thumbnail sized images of authors where I could find them. It is surprising that an author as prolific, and as long-lived, as Fred Merrick White, has but one picture on the internet, and not a very good one, while another, as well known as Owen Oliver, has none. That is because he was a career British Civil Servant, Sir Johsua Albert Flynn, KCB; but I couldn't find a picture of Flynn, either!
