So where does Simonides reference the "three crosses note" and what is your evidence for it being contemporaneous with Sinaiticus?

First the Simonides reference:

The Reader (1863)
William Aldis Wright - Jan 13, 1863

I will add one note from the "Codex Friderico-Augustanus ." In the fourth column of the reverse of the fourth folio, the scribe , without even beginning a fresh line, breaks off from 1 Chr. xix. 17 to 2 Esdr. ix. 11. At the bottom of the column are three crosses, and a note to the effect that up to the sign of the three crosses extend the seven superfluous leaves, which do not belong to Esdras. his mistake might have been made by an ancient copyist , but not by one who had before him the Moscow edition of the Old and New Testaments
