Hi again

I'll fill one gap and claim: 49. The Disgraceful Treaty

An earlier message stated that I should take sections 86 through 90. The magic window hasn't been updated to reflect that, but I have these sections read and I'm in the process of editing the files.

Hi team! Sorry I haven't posted for a while; I've had a cold. Hopefully I don't sound too congested anymore.

Here are sections 73 and 74:

Run time 8:37

Run time 8:20

I'd claim section 51, if that gap is still open. By the way, how are people pronouncing Rheims in this project? Like "reams", or the French way? (I find the "reams" pronunciation quaintly amusing; that's how my great-aunt, who's from about the same era as this book, says it!)

Finally, I'd like to claim section 90 as well if it's still available.

All the best,
~~Owen

Oops! Looking back through, I see section 90 has already been assigned. Never mind!

Sections 73, 74, 86, 87, 88, 89, 49, and 83 are PL OK.

Mark, in section 90, when you read the title the second time in the intro you said "History of Old France" instead of "Story of Old France".

Everything else was great and a joy to listen to.
