pronoun objects vs. possessives

[Brian MacWhinney]

Dear Peggy,
   Perhaps you are using an older version of the ENG MOR grammar.  I ran that sentence now with the current version and the result seems right:

*PAR:	so fairy godmother xxx gave her a ride in [/] in her gown to
	go to the ball (0.7) .
%mor:	co|so n|fairy n|+n|god+n|mother v|give&PAST pro:obj|her det:art|a
	n|ride prep|in det:poss|her n|gown inf|to v|go prep|to det:art|the
	n|ball .
