Converting from .pdb to EPUB - extra lines

Hi everyone,
I converted a PDB file to EPUB using Calibre. As I do with all of my EPUB files, before I put them on my Kobo I pop them into Sigil to see if there are any problems.

I found that with this particular file, Calibre has inserted line breaks that take off the first letter of a word at the start of the paragraph and puts another line under it.

Here is the code:

<p class="calibre1"></p>

<div class="calibre10">
M
</div>

<p>y jailers merely tightened their hold and frog-marched me when I wobbled. Suckers are very strong; they may not have noticed that they were now bearing nearly all my weight as my knees gave and my feet lost their purchase on the ragged ground.</p>

Does anyone know how to fix this without having to go through every single paragraph of the story? I'd like to do it with a find/replace thing if possible (using Sigil??).

Your help would be very much appreciated as I want to get to read my book ASAP!

Thanks
