I might not get very much more (or any more) done in the next month or so as I'm on the move again (final exit). I have Sections 76 and 77 recorded, so I might get those edited and uploaded.

Sections 72-74 are PL OK!

Section 75 has one repeat at 33:47 "25.5 square miles ...25 1/5 square miles...square miles"

Section 76 (42:59)
https://librivox.org/uploads/lynnet/londonlabour2_76_mayhew_128kb.mp3

This took time to check the unclear figures on pages 418 - 419 by cross-referencing with the analysis he gives afterwards, but there is sill an erratum in the first total (which I have given correctly on the recording as GBP 14,784) and then he missed out the salary of the by-law clerk in the analysis (for which I have given a Readers' Note).

Hate to rain on your parade, but LV policy is to read as it was written, even if blatantly wrong and readers' notes can only go in the written blurb.

Which written blurb?

The summary you have in the first post. You can edit it by clicking in the pencil icon in the top right. Just make sure to let the MC (me here) know if you make changes as they are not automatically transferred to the catalog or Archive, but require a bit of 'copy and paste'.

Amended Section 76 (42:49)
[Thanks, Lynne.]

I've just noticed the link I posted for Section 75 was incorrect in the MW. Amended now.
Think I need a holiday...

Section 76 is PL OK!

My laptop is incapacitated for the moment. My other laptops are in my shipment so j won't have access for a couple of months. I'm not sure when I will be able to continue but continue I will asap. Sorry for the delay.

I'm still here! Hoping to get a recording done soon.

I've just discovered that p425 is missing. Trying to source elsewhere but not having much luck.
