I thought I was missing the point :) this gets closer

\version "2.19.25"
{
a'8 b' c' e' c'2
a'4 b' 
\set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta "1"))
d'4 g' 
\set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta #f)) 
\set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta "2"))
\set Timing.measurePosition = #(ly:make-moment -1/2) d'8 e' f' g' 
\set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta #f))
%\once \hide  BarLine 
\once \override Score.BarLine.stencil = ##f  
\bar ":|."        
\grace {s8}   \bar "|"
d''4 c'' b' a'
%5
a' b' c'' d'' \bar ":|."}

but the spacing looks suspicious to me ...
The commented out \hide command didn't work, that I don't understand.
