problem with \partial repeated in second ending

[Jay Hamilton, Sound and Silence]

Hello from the file below notice that for some reason a 
partial 8 is used to begin the second ending I can't see 
any reason why this should happen.
I looked at section 8.4.2 to see if I needed to correct 
it using some kind of timing but that didn't make any sense.
So what's going on here?
Thanks
Jay
