Note Relating to Cather
"For the most part [mystery stories] are read and thrown aside and forgotten as quickly as a puzzle that is solved, for they contain none of the elements of lasting satisfaction. Of course there are notable exceptions. ... there is a queer compound of undeniable brilliancy and very patent trashiness, Dead Man's Rock, the first and very uneven production of Mr. [Arthur] Quiller-Couch's early youth."
