After midnight when the long streets are hushed all men are brothers whether they be kings or thieves
Jewels are like people, no two are alike-no two have the same secrets

Vengeance In Her Bones by Malcolm Jameson | Weird Tales

Your editor has always preferred those stories of his that dealt with deep water over those that dealt with deep space. There is a verisimilitude about sea stories that all the phony parallels about space-going navies can never attain. The feeling all seafarers get about their ships-the animism...

    ****SPOILER**** The deaths all have that in common, asphyxiation, drowning, suffocation, squeezing, they all have one thing in common, as the old antiques dealer, Mr. Sproull must’ve guessed… and the man for whom the spoons were first made for his funeral… his relatives each were given a spoon and it was said that six suffered deaths in the exact same way as the old man, who they had conspired to kill. They must’ve suffocated the old man with a pillow.

    I enjoyed that story, unfortunately some pets are very possessive of their owners and feel very jealous when somebody else comes into their life, just like a human I suppose and it is understandable. I know I shouldn’t, but I feel very sad for Dog. I hope that doesn’t make me a bad person. I look forward to hearing more of your story. Thank you for sharing them with us. 👍🥂
