Gary,
This is more end of line hyphens such as (hav-ing) (Washing-ton).

I have discussed this with K1000. It appears to be the case only rarely,
and only in those words which are compound words such as twelve-year-old
where, if it has a line end after twelve, you might find twelveyear-old. It
would show up in the rank spelling feature in any case and searching that
would take considerably less time than correcting that many hyphens.
Hope this helps.
