BTW, Thank you, Ben, for your Lilypond tutorials on YouTube.
Looking at my copy of the Novello Messiah, bar 17 is marked for Strings,
so it seems pretty clear that your mark is simply a device used by
Watkins Shaw to indicate changes in the instrumental summary below the
choral parts. For example, at rehearsal B, bar 22, the mark shows that
the top half note belongs to the first violin, while the trumpets have
the rest of ther notes on beat one.
Cheers,
Colin (who thinks singing the bass line to be wonderfully therapeutic!)
