Might I claim sections 8 and 9 (Grant’s 1874 state of the union)?

Three cheers for Unconditional Surrender Grant!
~~Owen

Thanks so much for your patience! Here are Valet 2, Hamlet, and A Man: https://librivox.org/uploads/maryannspiegel/montecristo_valet2_069.flac https://librivox.org/uploads/maryannspiegel/montecristo_hamlet_072.flac https://librivox.org/uploads/maryannspiegel/montecristo_man_077.flac Please let me kn...

I hate to do this, but I'd like to resign my claims for this project. I'd meant to record before this, but I've had some unexpected events eat into my free time lately and I just don't see how I can have it done in time.... Many apologies.

~~Owen

I'd claim the two halves of the 1860 speech, if it doesn't seem ungallant of me to take the most interesting (and exasperating) address!

~~Owen

Owen, You did a wonderful job on your Presidential reading style. Oh, thank you so much! I really appreciate it. :9: Any interest in Fillmore? :oops: I'm afraid I don't have a lot of respect for Fillmore. (As a descendant of Irish immigrants, I don't have much truck with anybody who would seek offi...

Owen, I’m so sorry I didn’t see that claim. Section 2 is yours! Thank you for pointing this out. I’m going to blame it on the medication. I was recovering from surgery and certainly not on the top of my game. :oops: Oh, no need to apologize at all! It's my fault for burying my claim at the end of a...

FWIW, I meant this post:

~~Owen

Not a huge deal for me either way, however!

Hmm, I thought I'd claimed section 2, but it's not in the MW...

~~Owen

Certainly! Thank you for helping out. I hope you enjoy the reading. :) Lovely! Thank you. Foreign affairs in 1849 were certainly fascinating (the US pledged itself to the perpetual independence of Hawai‘i and looked on, bemused, as Germany failed to unite!). I've recorded section 1, and though I st...

May I claim section 1?
~~Owen

https://librivox.org/uploads/triciag/wisdomoftheancients_25_bacon_128kb2018_07_08_04_19_23.mp3 This is supposed to be section 25 and it is. Somehow the MW did get out of order and Atalanta and Hippomenes, or Gain. Explained of the Contest betwixt Art and Nature should be section 26. I think Owen sh...

Owen is still working on his recordings. Craig Sorry for the delay! Here are sections 24, 25, and 31: https://librivox.org/uploads/triciag/wisdomoftheancients_24_bacon_128kb.mp3 run time 2:32 https://librivox.org/uploads/triciag/wisdomoftheancients_25_bacon_128kb.mp3 run time 3:09 https://librivox....

Craig

If you aren't altogether fed up with me (and if you are, I understand!), I'd claim sections 24, 25, 30, and 31. This time I promise to keep a close eye on the due date.

~~Owen

Might I have a two-day extension? Sure you can Owen :D Craig Thanks so much! And thank you for the pronunciation hints earlier; I hope what I've done is acceptable. Here are my four tracks: 9 https://librivox.org/uploads/triciag/wisdomoftheancients_09_bacon_128kb.mp3 Run time 2:36 11 https://libriv...

Craig

Oh, sorry about that! I got confused and thought I had until the 25th to finish editing. My recording is done; I just need to sit down and tidy it up. Might I have a two-day extension?
