[SOLVED] Upgrading ATA 3.3.2 to 3.4.2 only half successful

I'm able to successfully upgrade my personal test site from Atahualpa 3.3.2 to the latest 3.4.2. --

Note: I did it the old-fashioned way, FTP uploading the new directory "atahualpa342" into "/wp/wp-content/themes/". In the WordPress Dashboard I'm able to choose/switch -- activating either version of Atahualpa.

Unfortunately, I have custom code inserted into the theme's "index.php" file which creates the "Hatchtown Update" box on the landing page. The code that was created awhile back under Flynn's direction takes the latest blog post in the "Announcements" and puts it in the box on the front page.

When I insert the code block into index.php the site crashes -- the browser screen shows:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/content/m/i/n/mineolajim/html/wp/wp-content/themes/atahualpa342/index.php on line 114


I've looked at the new and old index.php's and there's quite a difference.

Help!
