Thank you! These are in the MW. I was hoping to have picked up a DPL by now, but since no one has volunteered, I will go post in Listeners Wanted in search of one. And if that still doesn't work, I should be able to PL these over the weekend.

Hi,

I'm wondering is it possible for me to claim PL for sections 9 and 11? Thanks.

If you are just wanting to PL those sections, then you can go ahead and do it! No need to "claim," really. (Although it is a good idea to post and say you're about to PL them, to avoid the slim chance of someone else PLing at the same time.)

If, on the other hand, you are wanting to PL all of the sections in this book, then that is a spot you can claim.

I'm guessing that you may have already seen this, but if not, I'd like to point out to you that we do have a guide for PLers that explains what you should and should not be listening for: https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php?title=Guide_for_Proof-listeners

PL NOTES for Section 11

Hi, Anthony!

Welcome to LibriVox

I've PL'd Section 11 - great job recording. I noticed only one spot that can use an easy edit.

If you open the track and zoom in until you can see the half-second tick marks, at 8:57-8:58 you'll find a false-start bit that you can clip out: "It is true not"

Everything else is terrific.

Might I take 4-6?

[LCaulkins]

Actually, one of my DPL projects finished up, so if there is still need here, I can take this onto my DPL plate.

Thanks so much for taking on this lengthy essay, Adrian! It's always nice when one reader is willing to tackle a multi-section chapter like this.

If you happen to find a place to divide the essay that is a better natural stopping point than what I've specified, I give you full freedom to divide it there instead! I just picked those spots on skimming through it, in case it was ended up being read by different readers.

That would be lovely, thanks Lynette!

PL Notes for Section 4:

Hello! This is a really excellent recording. The only glitch I have for you is at 35:25-35:29, we have a repeating phrase, "'til in his flight"
