Subsequent to Ron and Scott's visit, seven poems have
been transcribed. One with the same title,"Reve
Parisien" as the Bauelaire in Sandalwood, is indeed
a Baudelaire but not the same one. Work continues
on "The Adventurer", and then I will attempt to
complete "The Haunted Chamber" which Ron had begun.
I am attempting to get all the smaller and shorter
transcriptions done before attacking "The Sword of
Zagan" which is nearly two hundred handwritten pages.
I would like to see everything that is complete
published in one single volume. Some of the
transcriptions are dubious as the documents are very
old, some were water and fire damaged, and in some
the ink itself seemed to be the old "inkwell" type
we used in grade school, which, on newsprint, spreads and becomes difficult to read. Of course, best guess
is what editor's do, isn't it?
