Can I go ahead and claim 1 and 2 while I wait for comments on my other recordings?

Post by **Carolin** » March 15th, 2017, 9:50 am

sure, thanks for claiming!

it looks like i forgot that section 1 should have the full intro. could you use

"dedication of katydid's poems. this is a librivox recording. all librivox recordings are in the public domain. for more informaiton or to volunteer, please visit librivox.org. (recording by you). katydid's poems by kate slaughter mckinney. dedication." and at the end can you say "end of the letter to katydid".

thank you

I'd love to!

Just one question: the letter is signed Jno. Aug. Williams. How should I say those abbreviated bits?

So should I just say John August Williams?

yes. i think it always sounds nicest to read the abbreviations out rather than as they are

thank you!
