I'd like to read a newspaper article in Dutch, dated 11 Nov 1918, announcing the ceasefire.
It is titled "De wapenstilstand geteekend". There is no author listed.

Ricarda,

Your reading of Wir Toten auf Urlaub by Kurt Eisner is PL OK. Sorry it took me so long to listen to such a short section. For German, I must follow along with the text and it took me far longer than it should have to get to this (and the other sections in need of PL).

Foon,

This would be fantastic. This will make a terrific addition to this volume. Would you check the MW to make sure I have spelled the title correctly? We'll use "unknown" for the author on this one. You don't need to say that in the intro, it's just so you know how I've entered it into the catalog.

schrm,

Militant Pacificism is PL OK. Very well read! Thank you (and apologies to you as well for the long delay in PLing).

Colleen,
The 14 Points is PL OK. That was interesting! You hear so much about it, but I had never actually read it (or had it read to me).

morning maryann,

no problem at all

and thank you for your feedback!
i feel like it is hard work for me to read in english - but i do like it, on the other hand.
and when i was successful with three different contriutions, i will keep reading in english, occasionally.

cheers,

Yes, spelled perfectly

The official name of the newspaper was "Algemeen Handelsblad", the title "Nieuwe Amsterdamsche Courant" was mostly stylistic (there was also a "Nieuwe Rotterdamsche Courant" in another city at that time), I don't know if that matters though.

In my recording, I've read the name of the newspaper in the intro and ending in place of the author's name. If I need to cut that out/change it, let me know!

Thank you Foon.

Please check the following:
4.27-4.35 - repeat?
at 5.20 - you did not read the parenthetical -> (mit Duitschland kunnen we nu etc.). Was this intentional?
6.48-6.53 - repeat?

Would you also please provide a short summary / blurb to describe this piece for the project overview?

Thanks.
MaryAnn
