tribute typo: Jingo #2

Browse Source 
Reported directly to devteam; transcription typo:  had "Vines", should
be "Vimes".

I double checked that long passage and found two other mistakes:
"proffered" was misspelled with 2nd 'r' doubled,
| 'Quoted statement,' someone said.  'Another statement.'
lacked the opening quote on the second sentence.

My source uses double quotes (normal American usage).  I'm not sure
why the passages which refer to it--the page number annotations
specify that same source--were transcribed with single quotes (normal
British usage), but I've left those as is.

The sentence with "Vines" was also separated from the previous one by
a single space when nearly everything in dat/tribute uses double space.
A quick regexp search found half a dozen or so other instances of that.
This fixes those but the searching wasn't rigorous and it's sometimes
ambiguous whether an elipsis or long dash constitutes the end of a
sentence before another starts or is just in the middle of a long one.
