Hi Kristin,
I would delete large chunks of duplicated text like this. It is
very likely that the scanner of the book was using Kurzweil1000 to scan
and
recognize the book and had suspicious regions kept. This can result in
chunks of duplicated text like this. Just my opinion and experience, but
I'd delete large chunks of duplicated text like this.

Hey everyone!
I'm currently working on Pride. However I've come across some duplicate
text
of the story and I wasn't sure if it would be okay to delete it. Since we
are suppose to keep the text close to the original, I just wanted to see
if
you guys normally delete or keep regardless of the duplication? I'm
copying
the duplicate text below this message and any help here would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks everyone and I hope you are having a spectacular day!
