I never heard James O. Hall speak ill of very many people, but he had absolutely no use for the person who edited CR. It appears that it was a young lady fresh out of college with a hot degree in her hand that she took to mean that she could do what she wanted - including changing context. The obvious things, like checking for repetition, were overlooked. I was always convinced that the bad experience in publishing CR caused Mr. Hall to forget about his own work on Murder at Ford's Theatre.
