Three People, by Pansy (1841 - 1930)

This project is now complete! All audio files can be found on our catalog page: https://librivox.org/three-people-by-pansy/

Three boys in very different home environments start life on the same day: the pampered Pliny Hastings, the solidly brought-up Benny Phillips, and the uneducated street scamp Theodore “Tode” Mall. Their lives intertwine around the issue of "rum" and a dying mother's prayer for her little boy. A classic Pansy book with a strong temperance message. (Summary by TriciaG)

WooHoo THAT must be what I was waiting for.

I was just headed to PL the first two and ... lo and behold... I had an email.

question about Chapter 4 file.

Every time I try to download it the file name shows as chapter 3. I've rechecked ch 3 and ch 2 and they show alright. Perhaps there is an oops???

Yes, it was.

I copy/paste the link from the previous one when a chapter is uploading. I forgot to change the chapter number.

Chapters 1, 2 & 4 PL OK

Chapter 3 just likes getting attention it seems...
Missed Repeat 11:41 ..it's enough sight n...it's enough sight nicer"

Let's see, with two glitches related to the same chapter it's interesting that the chapter is named Brain Work.

oops that's chapter 4, but they're close companions dontcha know.

HA! You marked Chapter 3 PL OK! So there's a comedy of errors going on around here today.

3 edited and ready for spot check.

Chapter 3 is officially PL OK

...and shouldn't cause us any more trouble.

BTW, it's an interesting story so far.
