This surprised me when I heard about it, since I thought
Blackmask.com handled only public domain titles, and Black
Wings Has My Angel wasn't public domain the last time I
talked to the Chaze family. I use to be a librarian in
Hattiesburg, Mississippi, Elliott Chaze's hometown. Though I
never met Elliott, I did meet some of his family. As I
recall, most of them were attorneys.
Anyway, I hope this is a story that ends with a happy ending
and not a cease and desist letter.
