Wonderful. A classic Machen story; I am reminded of something Yeats said on how it was important to collect stories of fairies and other rural elementals while people still believed in them. I think Machen took a similar view that perhaps, just perhaps, the fairy stories told of creatures that had gone ‘underground’ . Anyway, thank you very much
