Whew, from page 274 to end of chapter are some interesting things, such as xxvj, which I did to the best of my guessing. If you have suggestions, I can rerecord. Thanks, Rosie

Well that was fun. Here are the values for those numbers. I don't know if the dates (e.g., the 26th instead of the 25th) and yards are significant changes, but I would definitely change the king at 28:28. I would also recommend changing the ones where you just read the number for the monetary values, e.g., 29:16 - "3 pounds 6 guineas 8 pence (or can use pennies instead of pence)" not "257".

Let me know what you think. Below is the complete list.
28:20 should be 26th not 25th day of June
28:28 should be Edward IV not Third.
28:32 should be 27 not 25 yards
28:35 should be 27 not 25 yards
28:58 should be 21st not 20th day of september
29:06 should be 16 not 25 shillings
29:16 should be 3 pounds 6 guineas 8 pence (pennies) not 257, li g d is pounds guineas, pence (pennies)
29:41 should be 4 shilling 4 pence, not 3 shilling 3 pence
29:53 should be 3 pounds 6 guineas 8 pence (pennies) not 257, li g d is pounds guineas, pence (pennies)
30:01 should be 3 pounds 6 guineas 8 pence (pennies)not 27, li g d pounds guineas, pence (pennies)
30:40 should be 3 pounds 6 guineas 8 pence (pennies) not 27, li g d is pounds guineas, pence (pennies)
30:44 should be 3rd not 2nd day
30:51 should be 5 li not 5, li is pounds
31:01 should be 3 pounds 6 guineas 8 pence (pennies) not 27, li g d is pounds guineas, pence (pennies)
31:10 should be 10 pounds not 10, li is pounds

Wow, thank you so much. I had never seen that before and didn't even realize it was money. You are absolutely magnificent with all the corrections; I hope I did them justice. Rosie

I cheated. I found a wonderful site at the University of Nottingham that gave me much of the needed information. I had never seen Roman numerals written with a "j" before.

Your corrections are fine.

This is now PL OK. Well done with all your chapters.

Thanks,

M
