corrected and re-uploaded that one line

Thanks Sonia! ... perfect edit job as usual!

This is PL OK!

Carolin, per your previous note, I don't think this is the case. Before I posted my comments to Sonia, I had checked six of the leading on-line dictionary pronunciations and none had "scarce" as the way it had been pronounced in the reading. That being said, I do not usually correct pronunciation of words, however Sonia has asked specifically that I correct her English pronunciations.

Carolin, I was wondering about the file name, which only gives credit to one of the authors. Since they were both sisters, their maiden name was Fellows. Wouldn't it be a good idea to use that name to reflect credit to both of them, instead of the "married" name of only one of them ? Just as a suggestion, as I think you can "bulk-change" the file name right at the end ?
