FROM PHANTAGRAPH'S SCRAPBOOK
--Odd items, jotting, quotes--

Inscription on the flyleaf of a volume of "The Island of Dr. Moreau" by Wells, published 1906:
     "To my dear James A. McCreedy in memory of the Gab Fests that have gone with the days, when we talked of strange tales and queer things.
               Wm. KingFisher, 4thApril, 1909"
(Evidence of an earlier fandom than ours?)

Quote from an unpublished manuscript, "The Adventure of the Three Red Dwarfs" by August Derleth:
     Pons turned silently. "I would call your attention to the peculiarity of this room."
     Jamison looked bewildered; he cast a rapid glance around him. "But there's nothing peculiar about this room," he protested.
     "That is the peculiarity!" returned Pons.
