If you are really deleting the text, and not replacing it, how about :

      delete character 1 of paragraph i




If you want to check to make sure it is a space, then

     
set Checkers to character 1 of paragraph i      
if Checkers is equal to space then      
   delete character 1 of paragraph i      
end if
