May I read Second Young Lady (Appears in chap. 21)?
This is my first dramatic reading, so bear with me. If I am right, this is what she says:

"A MISSOURI MAIDEN'S FAREWELL TO ALABAMA"
"Alabama, goodbye! I love thee well!
But yet for a while do I leave thee now!
Sad, yes, sad thoughts of thee my heart doth swell,
And burning recollections throng my brow!
For I have wandered through thy flowery woods;
Have roamed and read near Tallapoosa's stream;
Have listened to Tallassee's warring floods,
And wooed on Coosa's side Aurora's beam.

"Yet shame I not to bear an o'erfull heart,
Nor blush to turn behind my tearful eyes;
'Tis from no stranger land I now must part,
'Tis to no strangers left I yield these sighs.
Welcome and home were mine within this State,
Whose vales I leave—whose spires fade fast from me
And cold must be mine eyes, and heart, and tete,
When, dear Alabama! they turn cold on thee!"

Am I correct? Thanks for your patience!

Certainly you may read the Second Young Lady. And yes, those are her lines.

Thank you Elizabeth, Arielle, Amanda, and Libby! I apologize if I do not PL quickly (that apology is for you too, Bob.) I am currently down with the flu, and it's temporarily compromised my hearing, but I look forward to PLing as soon as I've recovered.

Take your time and take care of yourself. Health comes first!

I'll take the part of Mary Austin if that's still open.

Or anything else you would like.

Hi! Is part #12, Judge Thatcher, still available? If so, I'd love to take a shot at it. Thanks!
