Wowie!!!! The secrets of Sister Sharon Falconer come falling out!!
But Elmer's ardor is not dampened.
There's a great reading from the Song of Soloman that I wish I could have done better.

I refused to watch the movie until I've finished my recording, but I'm willing to bet that this scent is mega-sensational -- Burt Lancaster's emotive powers and the visuals of the secret altar just begged to be captured on film.

Section 14 has technical issues starting at about 22:00 that seem to run for at least 10 minutes.

Section 15 has one repeat at approximately 11:25, a repeat of 'me too, practically..."

Holy Mackerel!! Section 14 was done with an invalid internal audio setting which royally messed up this recording.
I have spent the entire afternoon and evening finding the cause of the failure and then trying to "fix" the existing audio to be acceptable. The section is almost an hour long, so I'm hoping to avoid having to re-record it.
I'll do another pass thru it tomorrow and then upload it for another PL run, Mrs. Hand.
Sorry.

RE-uploaded Section 14

https://librivox.org/uploads/annise/elmergantry_14_lewis_128kb.mp3 55:48

This section as become a pain in the neck!
I have re-recorded and replaced the last 30 minutes entirely this morning. The first 20 minutes seemed fine.
I did NOT reduce the tempo of the new minutes by 10% as I usually do, so the length of the file appears to be 3 seconds longer than before.
