Temple Bar magazine (in full: Temple Bar: a London magazine for town and country readers) was first published in l861 and a few years later absorbed a still earlier magazine, Bentley’s Miscellany (1837-68). By 1901 it was published regularly three times a year in an octavo format running to several hundred pages of articles and stories unrelieved by any illustrations. It was by this time becoming distinctly old fashioned compared to, say, The Strand magazine and folded five years later in 1906. There may have been an attempt to revamp it as the last two volumes (Nos. 133-134) were renumbered New Series Vols. 1-2. Ransome's piece must therefore have appeared in one of the very last issues. I am obliged to Richard Cheffins, Secretary of the Violet Needham Society, for this information.
