This all sounds quite reasonable. Thank you! I've added you to the MW.redrun wrote: ↑July 12th, 2023, 12:50 am I'll take section 11, if I may. I find the writer's attitude comes through in his intentional usage of italics.
I can also take section 32 (the next of the tables) off your hands. If you're ok with what I did for section 2 of the previous report, I can do something similar here.
As an example, I could read line items 23 and 24 as:And here's how I'd arrive at that, in addition to instructions you've posted:Tribe: Chickasaws, treaty of October 20, 1832. Land ceded to United States: six million, four hundred twenty-two thousand, four hundred. Amount paid: three million. Footnote: Estimated net proceeds, the whole amount of which they will receive.
Tribe: Same (Chickasaws), treaty of May 24, 1834. Amount paid: 46,000. Footnote: Annuity
- Skip the line/item numbers. There isn't heading for them, and this would match the format of the next table.
- After the first reading of the column headings, abbreviate as "tribe", "treaty of", "land ceded to United States", "land assigned to Indians", and "amount paid". For the "total" line at the end, don't abbreviate.
- When "Same" is used either as the tribe name or a footnote, read "Same", then repeat the previous name or note that it refers to.
- Read the footnotes at the end of the corresponding entry, as though it were a "Footnotes" column at the end. This matches the usage of a "Remarks" column in the next table.
- Read only numbers, rather than adding units. It's probably safe to say it's dollars and acres, again as in the next table, but I'd err on the side of caution unless you prefer I read them in.

Here is section 11, ready for PL at your convenience.

I'll be back with that land-table. You've heard of a water-table; perhaps a land-table is more commonly called a "mesa".

Kristin, if you want to put this in the MW and PL, go ahead. My internet would make updating that interesting at the moment.

I'm glad! Now, don't mind me, I'm just piling on the work while folks are busy elsewhere. I'll be around for fixes whenever they're needed.

In case it helps in PLing this section, I've left about 1 second of silence after each entry in the table. When I went to review, I used Audacity's "Analyze" -> "Sound Finder..." tool to show me a label for each sound between those 1-second pauses. The label numbers don't match those in the table, but this made it easier for me to keep track and to jump around to different items.

It's a fascinating read, trying to see that world through primary sources. I'm thoroughly enjoying it. Hopefully, I'll be able to sign up for more soon!stepheather wrote: ↑July 15th, 2023, 9:25 pmThank you so much!
