I thought about that.  But it seemed odd how one deleted and the next
one didn't and I did them seconds apart. . . must have timed it
perfectly!
Quite a while later, and it still comes up in the hit list, but when I
click on it I get the following message:
"Software error:

Can't call method "field" on an undefined value at
/usr/share/koha/intranet/cgi-bin/authorities/detail.pl line 332.
For help, please send mail to the webmaster (webmaster at efdss.org),
giving this error message and the time and date of the error."

Meanwhile, the one I deleted first is well and truly gone.
