Would it be greedy of me to claim 24 and 25? I really would like to see this completed.

Definitely not greedy! First claimed, first served, and I don't put limits on the number of sections someone can claim. Sections 24 and 25 are yours! Thank you!

I'll do 26, and 27 if I can. .... I'm editing this post, because I discovered I can't do it as the link to the text sends one to a library to get the book. I'm not in a position to do that. I think I have it, but it would take till summer to find it! Any suggestions?

The link sends you to Hathi Trust, which has the best copy that I could find. It should send you straight to the chapters in that book. I will put you down for sections 26 and 27, and if you are not able to access the links, we can always take you off from those sections. Thank you!

it doesn't send me to the chapters, and I can't access them, it seems. Could it be because I'm in Canada? 50 years have elapsed.... ?

Oh, ok, I now understand. I know there are other Canadians here that have problems with Hathi Trust. Let me see if I can find this version on Archive.

I knew there was a reason why I needed to find a better copy. Here is the link for chapter 13 for the copy at Archive. The first page is not the best.

And, chapter 14!

Section 24 needs a couple of quick edits.

@19:58-:59 is a stumble.

@31:40-:42 is a stumble
