Here are your PL notes for section 12 :)

00:42 stumble on "mysterious" (I hear "is a myst- is as mysterious", should just be "is as mysterious")

2:30 repeat "She was seventeen at the time when Cyrus Spragg first entered her life"

2:58 repeat "She must even then have been a woman of a hysterical nature"

3:51 repeat "as might have been chosen by Phidias"

4:19 repeat "and finely"

4:44 repeat three times "had the mien"

5:46 repeat "dropping sweet"

6:07 repeat "perhaps with a modesty which appears to have"

6:17 repeat "saw fit to delete one sentence of the passage"

6:33 repeat "where she had been sent to buy eggs by her"

6:44 repeat "with all the curiosity"

7:16 repeat "It may have been that he had been in Valencia It may have been that he had in Valencia"

7:35 repeat "would scarcely have heard of it"

7:56 repeat "They were years spent"

Oh, you didn't get my name wrong. April is the Book Coordinator. I, Elsie, am the dedicated prooflistener. Hopefully, I haven't completely confused you :)

Yikes sorry Elsie,

It should like Section 12 didn't get edited at all. I don't usually let that many errors slip by.

I shall get right on it.

Don't worry about it! Section 12 is so short that it took hardly any time to relisten to it.

Sections 12, 17, and 19 are all PL OK :thumbs:

Hi April,

I am going to relinquish Sections 34 and 44 in the hope that someone whose French is much better than mine, can take over. Alternatively, I can translate it into English and then read it, as it is in the public domain this is entirely at the discretion of the reader and you April, Elsie and/or Ann. We could make it available and hope that it is picked up by someone better able to do this justice than myself. If at the end, no one wants it, then maybe my suggestion could work.

Thanks

Sandra

Hello Sandra,
I will remove you as the reader for the sections that you request. Thanks for letting me know.
