Thanks!

Linda you may have to look at a few of these sections as the length is quite long. If you need assistance dividing these up let me know.

I finally finished "Mary Hamilton" today!
Far from the Joan Baez version.
I had to shorten it a bit cause the acutal version is 7 minutes if I sing all the verses.
Here's the link http://www.sacred-texts.com/neu/eng/child/ch173.htm

Should this collection be moved to the READERS FOUND section now?

Thanks!

It looks like you're real close to having this one done; if you're not fully subscribed yet, I could speak or sing The Bold Fisherman http://www.traditionalmusic.co.uk/song-midis/Bold_Fisherman.htm It's a fun one I always liked as a kid and my son loves it too!
