PL note section 26:
Well done, Roohi! The sound is much better than the last recordings

Two small things to fix:
00:00 - the silence at the beginning should only be 05-1 second, please reduce
The volume of the recording is a little bit high, please amplify by -4.5 or so.

Carolin, I am recording Section 47 - "That kind of Life most Happy which Affords us most Opportunities of Gaining our own Esteem. p.245-256 (two days in the diary)".

But the Index to this volume got it wrong and pp. 245-256 actually contain two unconnected essays:

"That kind of Life most Happy..." p. 245 - 250

and

"The itch of writing universal." p. 250-256.

What do you suggest I do?

Best,

Barbara

thank you barbara -- i saw that when i set up the book, the second entry is not in the table of content, on which i based my magic window, but i saw that there were two days for that entry, i thought they belonged together.

i am giving you another section in the magic window for the second essay, and will move it around correctly when cataloging time comes

thank you!

Carolin,

I read the introduction to the section,"The itch of writing universal", as "Section 69". You may want to alter that when it comes to cataloguing?
