2 things I can't figure out in the jquery condense plugin

2 things I can't figure out in the jquery condense plugin

I'm making a freebie website for our local historical society. This time last week I hadn't touched Java of any kind, so I'm happy with how far I've gotten with this plugin so far, but 2 things need to be tweaked and I have no clue. 

The 4 large paragraphs on the page are each condensed with the jquery condense plugin ( https://github.com/jsillitoe/jquery-condense-plugin ). The 2 issues are with the control display ( [...] more)

1) If the content that falls within the condensedLength contains a <p> tag, "[...] more" displays on a separate line instead of on the same line. See the second instance for an example of this ( The  MOVEMENT INTO the INTERIOR ). 

2) If the content that falls within the condensedLength goes to the end of a line, the line width can break the control display onto 2 lines. You may or may not see an example of this on the page when viewed on Plunker, depending upon your browser. Here's a screenshot where that does happen:




Here's my beautiful mess: 


Thank you,
