Thanks, Roy. Unfortunately, I just discovered a problem

with "Descent Into Hell," the current one I'm working on. Whole words (and sentences?) are missing from this. (It came from Gutenberg.) I can go over the text tirelessly and correct messed-up words, but I really feel like I can't presume to know what is missing, or how much is missing.

I think this is a real problem with Gutenberg, in that some of their texts are suspect. I can't in all conscience continue this title, unless/until I find one that is useable and faitful to the text.

It's pretty shoddy work, whoever uploaded it and didn't check it, or didn't check it thorougly enough.

I'll check on another version, but I'm wondering how many versions may have been leeched from Gutenberg, thus continuing the problem.

Charles Williams is too important a writer not to have available reliable work from him available on the internet for all to read.

Thank you, again.

Don
