And all three are charmingly read and PL OK!

I found an inconsistency. In an earlier chapter, there was a discussion of Hildegarde's hazel or golden eyes, but in Chapter 5, she's described as having blue eyes. Something an editor should have caught when the book was first published, but I suppose it doesn't really detract from the charm of this book. (The curse of being a former editor, I think, is that I notice things like this.)

Cheers,
Winnifred

Hi, yes I had to double check in case my eyes were making things up! Strange, because there was so much made of the colour in previous chapter. Will be interesting to see if it's mentioned later on....Anne

Hi Anne,

Just in case you’re wondering when I don’t respond as quickly as usual, I’m away from home (and my computer) for a week, so I won’t be able to PL these until after the 23rd.

Cheers,
Winnifred

I have changed this from a Collaborative to a Solo behind the curtain so will move it to Going Solo in a bit.

And all three chapters are PL OK! Such a delightful story, and your voice captures it beautifully.

With that, this project is at an end. Thank you, Anne and KiltedDragon, for taking this journey with me.

Anne, I think there are quite a few more Mrs. Molesworth novels on Project Gutenberg not yet recorded if you liked this one. And Ben (flavo5000) has added more to the Edgar Wallace list in the Book suggestions thread.

Cheers,
Winnifred
