Letters on Demonology and Witchcraft, by Sir Walter Scott (1771 - 1832)
A series of letters written by Scott on the history of witchcraft and other supernatural events in England and other locations. He documents stories and discredits them with natural causes. (Summary by Deon Gines)
Source text (please read only from this text!): https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/14461

Target completion date: 2021-07-01

Prooflistening level: Standard
Prospective PLs, please see the Guide for Proof-listeners.

IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the number of languishing projects on our server, we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't recorded anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project may be opened up to a group project if a Book Coordinator is found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to see if it can be re-instated).

Please don't download or listen to files belonging to projects in process unless you are the BC or PL. Our servers are not set up to handle the greater volume of traffic. Please wait until the project has been completed. Thanks!

Hello, Deon

You have a window! Please let me know if it all looks ok. I have shortened the file name a bit, but all the rest is what you already had.

Do you have a DPL already? Should we announce for one? :D
