[78-L] "Mystery" Country Record

As I noted earlier, the disc was recorded in May 1931 for ARC. Since it has been proven to exist as an ordinary ARC dime store issue, one wonders how Tony missed documenting it. The other side of the ARC discs by Coleman & Harper is "Sourwood Mountain," which also is documented in "Country Music Sources." I checked Art Satherley's log book, and there is no entry for this duo. Not having the Old Hat release, I don't know anything about the performers other than their real names, as mentioned previously. Were there other sides recorded at the session that produced these two songs? I have a Conqueror numerical but I'll have to do some digging to find out if somebody like Will Roy Hearne published numericals of the dime store catalogs to see if there were other recordings by this duo that exist.
