Notes

[i] A personal acquaintance of Alice Dunbar-Nelson.

[ii] Although the author of the Fu Manchu series, Sax Rohmer, wrote this book, this particular title is not actually a part of the series.

[iii] Written by Daisy Ashford (Margaret Mary Julia Ashford Devlin, 1881-1972) when she was only nine years of age; hence, one finds the misspelling of the word “visitors” in the book’s title.

[iv] Dunbar-Nelson had been professionally acquainted with Du Bois for many years.
