This is, quite obviously, more than we fit into a typical issue of Black Cat Weekly-almost double, in fact-so we are splitting the stories up and running them in two issues. The second volume will appear in a couple of weeks with the remainder of the stories.
Rounding out this issue are a mystery novel by Swedish writer and journalist Julius Regis Petersson (1889-1925), who wrote as Julius Regis, and a solve-it-yourself puzzler by Hal Charles. Hal Charles has appeared in every issue since #1 so had to appear here, too!
This is the complete lineup-
