Brian and Mark:

Thanks for your suggestions. 

As recommended, I added the \voiceOne, \voiceTwo, and so on to each
respective voice. I also added the \partial 4. To each voice. 

Implementing these recommendations resolved the issue. Lilypond now compiles
the code without issuing any warnings.

Thanks again.

You need to add \voiceOne, \voiceTwo, etc. If you do that, the warnings
disappear. See
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/multiple-voices .

Oh, and you can then dispense with your \stemDown, which happens
automatically.
