Oops!

My apologies to those listening to Silas Marner on Wednesday. Our playback system may have skipped the final short chapter at 8 am and at 1 pm due to maladjustment on my part.

I will try extra hard to get it right during the replays on Saturday and Sunday.

And you are always encouraged to visit the librivox.org site where you can find the whole recording and play it chapter by chapter.
