Here is Chapter 7! This is my first recording but I did read everything in the first post, ran it through Checker, edited, etc. Please let me know if there is anything I can do better.

Recording is 09:59.
Hello Tatiana
Your recording was just fine, and I will give you a PL OK as soon as you cut 2 seconds off the end. We're not to exceed 5 seconds and you have 7. Thanks.

Here is the reupload. Looks like I forgot how to count seconds at the end! This has the 2 seconds trimmed off.
If she's passin' back this way
I'm not that hard to find
Tell her she can look me up
If she's got the time

PL notes for Section 9:

At the start, please reduce the silence to under one second (a half second would be ideal).

At :15 please insert the full name and author of the book

At 2:10, your sentence is missing "Having gone up Lake Champlain..."
3:35 across into the Illinois river
5:53 please add: "One"
13:37 July should be January
