Right! Thanks for your patience. Also, I wondered if you needed help with listening for the plays. Didn't I use to help you there?

I don't know really. But I remember listening to some plays or parts of plays and doing the PL ok thing. You would inform me when to listen. But not a big deal. I was just curious.

ah I think you mean the few plays we had in the World Story project maybe ?

When I did the editing you did the final PL. Well this time there are no plays in that particular project (obviously LOL)

But I'll give you a call when I need any help. Thanks !!!

Jim

There is quotation between Silver Palace ladies and the Hans thing, which I left out because it seemed to have more to do with Section 2 than Section 1. I can fix if I have erred, of course.

the sisters were not really lucky with their husbands

but well, they were not the nicest people around either, so maybe sympathy is a bit misplaced

an interesting story nevertheless, I liked it.

A few comments though:

> at 26:21: (p. 99) stumble and repeat can be cut: "and he still a ba..." – "and he" is double and there is a loud breathing in the clipped exclamation "ba..." (I suppose he means "bachelor" in the context)

> at 26:42: (p. 99) between "knowest thou ought of that" and "listen" there is a strange word

which I cannot make out really. I think it can be cut. The --- only shows she is trailing off her comment, no need to insert a word here

> at 28:50: (p. 99) "Tis an inevitable chance – the first statute in Magna Charta – an everlasting act of parliament, all must die." – indeed this is a strange ending, but I think we should include it in here, as the sisters are hoping for the death of their husbands. I think maybe the proverb is a standalone (the double lines are a hint), but it's too short for a single section, so let's tack it onto the first section.

Sorry for the confusion

Thanks

Sonia

Those odd noises and loud breathing were my attempts to deal with blank lines. But in these cases you are saying they can be left out essentially. Works for me. And I included the quotation that follows the story. I hope I have got this all straight. Thanks. Jim

ah yes, I think in this case it's really that the speaker is cut short, one can understand this from the text.

It's PL ok now

thanks

what a cool story ! And not easy to narrate because of the Irish dialect in some speeches.

But you did it extremely well, thank you, April. I enjoyed the listen.

I have two small corrections to add though:

> at 1:26: (p. 107) "and damn the papists" – I hear "and of the papists", but I may be mistaken

> at 16:56-17:01: (p. 109) repeat "if you met with such an accident as that in your gullet" and "scratch it" after that. Can be cut

> oh and could you correct the filename as well, to include only one-digit-numbers: "4" instead of "04"

thanks

Sonia
