Here is the third volume:
Short Stories for Children.
My Walter de la Mare collection is mainly in three other books:
The Collected Tales of Walter de la Mare (1950, Knopf) which has the full version of "The Connoisseur",
Strangers and Pilgrims (2007, Tartarus Press), and
Eight Tales (1971, Arkham House). And a small book of poetry too.
