It takes me about 15 minutes to edit (starting at the end), starting with noise reduction, then editin...

Thanks! I'm OK leaving them in. PL OK!

Thank you, Adrian. Do footnotes (or not) at your discretion. And thanks for the pre-claim of orphans! Moving to Readers Found... Hello Tricia, I put the footnotes in on the basis it's easier to remove something that's already there. Happy to remove if you want. https://librivox.org/uploads/triciag/...
