Marginpar does not appear in ledmac numbered text

Question

For some reason my marginal notes don't appear. Is it because of line numbering?

% XeLaTeX can use any Mac OS X font. See the setromanfont command below.

Answer 1

Your example isn't very minimal, most of it is irrelevant to your problem.

But anyways, first: ledmac is deprecated, eledmac is recommended instead. Second, I'll quote the manual of eledmac (the same is valid for ledmac):

The \marginpar command does not work in numbered text. Instead the package provides for non-floating sidenotes in either margin.

\ledleftnote{text} will put text into the left margin level with where the command was issued. Similarly, \ledrightnote{text} puts text in the right margin. \ledsidenote{text} will put text into the margin specified by the current setting of \sidenotemargin{location}. The permissable value for location is one out of the list left, right, inner, or outer, for example \sidenotemargin{outer}. The package’s default setting is \sidenotemargin{right} to typeset \ledsidenotes in the right hand margin. This is the opposite to the default margin for line numbers.

Hence, a working example:

\documentclass[11pt,oneside]{book}
\usepackage{eledmac}
\begin{document}
\beginnumbering
\pstart
Nsture hath indued euery man, with
a certain eloquence, and also subtilitée \ledsidenote{Rhetorike
and Logike
giuen of nature.} to reason and discusse, to reason and discusse \ldots
\pend
\endnumbering
\end{document}
