S2 E1.02 Owen Narrates "Lady Audley's Secret" 
Written by Mary Elizabeth Braddon
Published in the London Journal 1863 
Hello Lovely Vicies and Victors, 
Im glad you found your way over here to the Victorian Periodical Parade   Welcome to the third reading of the Cornhill magazine. My name is Owen and I have been assisting Dr. Kari Nixon by reading the fiction portions of the 1862  bound annual edition. This is a nice collection of literature that connects present day folks to the Victorians of a 160 years ago. 
This first reading is a segment of the Mary Elizabeth Braddon novel, "Lady Audley's Secret." People would often buy the magazine subscription so they could read the book throughout the year. Said novel would be broken up into installments, with the rest of the magazine being made up of other stories or articles which would be a bonus for those who bought the magazine to read the novel. I am excited to narrate something from to those rich, Victorian days gone by. Now, we’ll see how far we get in fifteen minutes. 
I hope you enjoy, hobey ho lets go. Next episode will either be the third readng of the novel, or an interview between myself and Daniel Kasper PhD as we go over The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde, written by Robert Stevenson.
