Loder, p. 231: 'The story has roots associated with a real murder case in which Upfield gave evidence, and later described in a very rare booklet, The Murchison Murders (1934). The theme was important to him as it is repeated in one of the few short stories he wrote, Wisp of Wool and Disk of Silver'. In 1987, H. R. K.
