[Magdalen] Ravages of Time.

[Grace Cangialosi]

GOOD GRIEF!!!   I typed "band-aid," I swear to God, and my Kindle "corrected" it to "same-sex."     Same-sex   I just tried again right there, and the same thing happened! I guess it's the four letters/hyphen/three letters pattern or something!
Thanks for catching it, Lynn!
