Indian Fairy Tales, Demon With Matted Hair " 196, part 24, sentence 58

Sets of tales from Southern India, collected by the Pandit Natesa Sastri, have been issued under the title _Folk-Lore of Southern India_, three fascicules of which have been recently re-issued by Mrs. Kingscote under the title, _Tales of the Sun_ (W. H. Allen, 1891): it would have been well if the identity of the two works had been clearly explained.

Who acts: Mrs. · What happens: collect, issue, re-issu, explain · To what, where: Sets, title, Sun
