| 0:34.4 | John Haggadorn it's time for a story from one of my favorite lady authors the |
| 0:39.3 | Canadian author Lucy Maud Montgomery title title of this story, My Lady Jane. |
| 0:47.0 | The boat got into broaden half an hour after the train had gone. |
| 0:51.0 | We had been delayed by some small accident to the machinery. Hence that lost half hour, which |
