Early edition, originally published 1885. Dated from publisher's advertisements. With a colour frontispiece. The second novel from the author, written just prior to King Solomon's Mines. When a discovery of a box containing a well-preserved Saxon woman's head is made in a cemetery collapsing into the sea, the finders deem her to have been a witch.
