Minor style edit suggestion

[edit]

Great article! One sentence seems off, though, due to an insufficiently framed quotation that makes the whole sentence a run-on sentence. It's in the "Career" section; here's the sentence, with the problem area underlined: 'Robert Rutland, editor of Mason's papers, considered court service a major influence on Mason's later thinking and writing, but Horrell denied it, "if the Fairfax court provided a course for Mason's early training, he chiefly distinguished himself by skipping classes."' I would suggest either changing that comma into a colon, or adding the word "writing," so that the sentence would read as follows: 'Robert Rutland, editor of Mason's papers, considered court service a major influence on Mason's later thinking and writing, but Horrell denied it, writing, "if the Fairfax court provided a course for Mason's early training, he chiefly distinguished himself by skipping classes."'
