Mister Ron's Basement #1571 SUNDAY SALAD features one of the last pieces Stanley Huntley wrote for the Brooklyn Eagle in 1884, almost a year before he died. Mere days before 'Vengeance' appeared in the Eagle, long-time editor Thomas Kinsella died, and it seems likely that this weird tale was Huntley's tribute to him.

It is called 'Artistic Temperamentalists: A Modern Instance.'
