Theorem 1
Let $\varphi:C\to E$ define a general point in the Hurwitz scheme ${\mathcal{H}}^{\tiny \hbox{prim}}_{g,k}(E)$ for $g\geqslant 2$ and $k\geqslant 2$. Let $G^1_d(C)^{nc}$ denote the closure of the locus of linear series in $G^1_d(C)$ that are base point free and not composed with $\varphi$. Then the
