[John Mark Ockerbloom]

Thanks.  Right below the renewal for Tales of the Witch doll
is the the renewal for The Vanishing Houseboat, which was posted as
etext #34683.  So that one should go too, unless there's permission,
or another reason that Gutenberg would be allowed to post it.

Thanks,

John


The Vanishing Houseboat (#34683) -- copyright 1939, renewed 1966
