Worked trough them, made changes and looked trough the source material; good work mate helping me spot all these issues
In some cases it had become all wrong. 538 for example should be "That is" and reentered should naturally be re-entered
Tolkien, in all my english editions use '...' and not "..." however when people speak, so I stick to that
Concerning 811 and 812 those must been the last missed brackets from the old versions, as I in the beginning used such, removed now, and worked both into one quote and added a new one.
The Hobbit, 847, have these punctuations, guess it some kind of old fascion style.

Hi Ngugi,
I have quickly rechecked the changes in 2.5.3 and have a couple of final comments:
{Author_223}Sauron's forces is cast out, Unfinished Tales
The "is" still looks strange here. Are you sure it's not "are"?
{Quote_109}'Fealty with love, valor with honour, oath-breaking with vengeance.'
valour
Otherwise looking good!
Updated v2.5.31 thus

Oui oui, still Tolkien to little surprise went with that "other" English haha
'And this do I hear, Denethor son of Ecthelion, Lord of Gondor, Steward of the High King, and I will not forget it, nor fail to reward that which is given: fealty with love, valour with honour, oath-breaking with vengeance.’ Then Pippin received back his sword and put it in its sheath.

Well, whatever your viewpoint, these forms are both historically interchangeable and 'valid' (with Am.Eng [and to a lesser extent Aussie English] often preserving older forms that were formerly common in Br.Eng) - it often boils down to precedence and personal preference - and I guess for Prof. Tolkien, with his conservative British upbringings, he chose the variant most familiar to his surroundings.
Perhaps of greater concern for him, particularly throughout the later years of his life, was those dreaded printer's errors (a useful summary of which can be found at www.tolkiensociety.org/tolkien/tale.html) where not just spellings but entire words were changed... And now with so many text versions out there, it's also hard to know which is the most "correct" per Tolkien's vision, since none of them are 100.00% accurate. But that's the topic of another thread I guess...
