Mr. Payne:
Thank you for your reply. Some other users have supplied a code that works in 2.16.2.

Thank you for your reply and the suggestion. I tried \laissezVibrer. It just did not look long enough. I shall put it in the score.
LV ties can be lengthened. If you want all LV ties in the piece longer, then remove the \once - I always do - Lilypond's default LV tie length looks too stubby for my liking:
\version "2.17.25"
% extend laissez-vibrer tie
extendLV = #(define-music-function (parser location further) (number?) #{
\once \override LaissezVibrerTie.X-extent = #'(0 . 0)
\once \override LaissezVibrerTie.details.note-head-gap = #(/ further -2)
\once \override LaissezVibrerTie.extra-offset = #(cons (/ further 2) 0)
#})
\relative f' {
c1\laissezVibrer
\extendLV #5
c\laissezVibrer
c\laissezVibrer
}
