Ciufi,

Another outstanding reading. I think that when ever I read something from Adams, I will hear it in your voice, even though he was a male.

One small correction:

6:16.5 and their shout was heard to the distant end of this Continent. Added to be between was and heard.

The mention of Grenville in this context brought back the memory of a LARGE paper I did for my hisoriography class in College. A British view of the Grenville Years. A study of how the British Parliament and Government saw their responsibilities to the American Colonies. Going back to original sources etc., one could really see their point of view. Something we certainly do not see in our American History Classes (or in Adams' writings). :hmm:

Here is the fixed section 41 - no change in length:

What a nice compliment (I should have kept it to myself, though, as I am now being gleefully referred to in my house as "the voice of Sam Adams")!

Be sure and sign up for more "Sam". :wink:

I am just now jumping into a new solo project with longish chapters, but will try to pick up an occasional section along the way. Like you, I love source materials.

Good luck with Abe. I have read Sandburg's bio of him, and enjoyed it immensely.

Edited Section 6 (25:24)

https://librivox.org/uploads/linny/samueladamsv2_06_adams_128kb.mp3

Sorry for the long wait! I got a bit over my head, and had to take some time to whittle down my workload. The next few chapters should be done by either this week and next week. Contact me if there are any issues!

Kaity,

Sometimes, especially when we are starting here and are presented with so many interesting subjects to read, we can get "a bit over (our) head(s)". No problem.

Your corrections were well done, but there are three things,

One: For the Rulers, in such Attempts, exercising a Power the People never put into their Hands (who can never be supposd to consent that any Body should rule over them for their Harm) . Your correction of the original error was great, but when you rerecorded the phrase, you said "anybody" instead of "any Body". Subtle difference, but in the latter the "Body" refers to a governmental "Body". I really think that it makes enough difference that it should be corrected. Sorry. :(

The second thing is that in the latter four or so of the corrections there is a lot of background noise. Not enough to redo, but a suggestion might to, after recording and inserting the corrections, run that small part through Noise Reduction in Audacity. Then listen to them, and if necessary you can up the volume a little with Amplify.

Also could you lengthen the ending out to a full five seconds? It is about half a second short or so.

I enjoy your reading, and fix that one little mistake and all will be well.
