The Stranger is PL OK!

Such a friendly young man, to hand a bad bill... Thank you for lending us your voice!

I have recorded ALL chapters for Fenton Hardy. I normally like to post all the chapters at once when completed but, to make it easier for you, I will post batches as I edit them. Here is my first batch:

Chapter 2 -

Thank you, Greg, that's very considerate. I should be able to PL these tomorrow evening, and then I'll look forward to more!

Thanks Greg, chapters 2 and 10 for Fenton Hardy are PL OK!

For chapter 4, this file is identical to the chapter 10 file. Hopefully just an MP3 export mix-up, as still occasionally happens to me.

Here is Constable Con Riley:

Chapter 13: https://librivox.org/uploads/redrun/secretoftheoldmill_13_constableconriley.mp3 (0:23)

Chapter 14: https://librivox.org/uploads/redrun/secretoftheoldmill_14_constableconriley.mp3 (2:52)

Maybe I'm missing the wider context, but that prank Chet pulled seemed awfully mean. The Constable seemed like he wanted to be friends (as much as an adult police officer can be friends with teenage boys).

I agree, this was a particularly mean prank, especially since it's a call-back to the earlier bomb-scare "prank" in book 1. We're supposed to see Con as being condescending and spiteful, but consistently outplayed by the Hardy boys. This works better for the bumbling Chief & Smuff comedy duo than for the solitary Constable Con. Maybe it also works better in the 1950's rewrite.

Queued for PL, and thank you!

Thank you Greg, I'll most likely be able to PL them tomorrow!

I will also need you to re-upload the file for chapter 4, if you haven't already. The first upload of chapter 4 seems to be a duplicate of chapter 10 instead.

That is odd. I may have mislabeled the file. I am just about to go to bed so will have to fix it tomorrow after work.

Thanks!

Chapters 1-10, and 12-15 are all PL OK!
That's quite a few lines, you're a trooper.

Only one line missing in the whole lot:
Chapter 11, pg 4, @~1:22: "What time is your train leaving?"

Thank you! Queued for PL(/Spot-PL). If I don't get to them all this evening, it may be Thursday or so.
