some writing Marsham and others
Markham. This discrepancy is easily
accounted for. The spelling USED II

Markham, and the k was changed to
at the cabled request of Mrs. Ward, al
though not until the reviewers copies
had reproduced the magazine form.
Ono is still left to wonder, however,

for preferring Marshnm over Markham
