PL section 4
a pleasure to listen (to)!, only two minor items:
the captions belonging to the illustrations were read
0:32 - "MR. PHILIP FLETCHER"
11:15 - "MRS. SALTONSTALL AND FAMILY."
48:21 - "NO, I THANK YOU."

and a :17 second silence at the end.

PL section 8

the captions belonging to the illustrations were read
0:38.5 - "LISHA WILKINS"
14:32 - "MRS. WILKINS' SIX LIVELY INFANTS."

there are two sentences missing at 11:55

...With which maternal orders Mrs. Wilkins assumed a sky-blue bonnet, and went beaming away with several dishes genteelly hidden under her purple shawl.

MISSING> "Being irresistibly attracted toward the children Christie opened the door and took a survey of her responsibilities.

Six lively infants were congregated in the "settin'-room," and chaos seemed to have come again, for every sort of destructive amusement was in full operation." <MISSING
George Washington, the eldest blossom, was shearing a resigned kitten...

PL section 18

the captions belonging to the illustrations were read
14:29 - "DON'T MOURN, DEAR HEART, BUT WORK."

There is a 'plosive' at 7:19 you may wish to fix, isishalo1.

Hello,

This is my first time volunteering to read. But I'd like a chance to read
Chapter 11 of "Work: A Story of Experience" by Louisa may Alcott, called In the Strawberry Bed.

Can this chapter be reserved?

Thank you,

Lori P.

Hello, I'm a new volunteer here and was wondering if it might be okay for me to jump in and do a chapter of 'Work'? If so I'd be happy to take whatever chapter comes up next, I think 13 is still unclaimed.
