There's a XPath tutorial in the usual place.

Did you try using \d+ instead of \d? Looking at what you copied as a chapter heading

Code:

<p class="MsoPlainText"><span>CHAPTER 2</span></p>

I suspect that something like

Code:

//h:p/h:span[re:test(.,'CHAPTER \d+','')]

ought to work. If that still generates four entries per chapter, I'd have a look at the source code if I were you. In that case, I'd suspect there really are four chapter headings hidden somewhere (think inline TOC if there is one...).
