The image is appropriately tagged.
What makes The Ancestral Dictionary a reliable source? The author says the data in it was "partly furnished by other persons". Genealogical data is infamous for its inaccuracies; I know nothing against this particular book, but I don't see a publisher which makes me think this is self-published.- We have 'E. L. Freeman & Sons' as the publisher. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 18:19, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
- I took that for the printer, not the publisher, but looking at some more old books I see it's not always a clear distinction so struck. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 19:08, 25 August 2022 (UTC)

"Incorporeal hereditaments, Limitations of actions, and Corporate tax": do these need the uppercase initials? This is in both the lead and the body.- Fixed. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 18:19, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
- "During his childhood, Angell had an interest in studies": vague; can we be more specific?
- The source does not specify further. Should this be removed? – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 18:19, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
- I think we might as well remove it. It doesn't tell the reader much as it stands. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 19:08, 25 August 2022 (UTC)

"He soon developed a reputation as a conceptual lawyer": what is a conceptual lawyer?- Rephrased – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 18:19, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
"Angell returned to Rhode Island before rendering the decision": presumably this should be "before the decision was rendered"?- Rephrased – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 18:19, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
- I looked up the Law Intelligencer in Mott's history of American magazines and have a little more information for you: "The Law Intelligencer, founded at Providence in [1829], was, after a single volume, [...] moved to Philadelphia, where it published a second and third volume, 1830-1831." There's a footnote that adds 'It added the words "and Review" to its title when it was moved to Philadelphia. The titles given are those of the half titles and captions; title-pages say United States Law and Intelligencer Review.' From this it's apparent Angell continued to edit it in Philadelphia.
- Will try to research about this in few other sources as well, and will get back to this in a few days, if that is fine, Mike Christie? – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 18:21, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
- Sure -- no problem. I'll check back in a week or so if I haven't heard from you. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 18:57, 25 August 2022 (UTC)

- Hi, Kavyansh.Singh, just checking in -- I know you wanted to look for other sources, but I think if you want to pass this, just removing the vague sentence and incorporating the info about the journal from Mott would be enough.

- @Mike Christie: Hi! So I researched about this last week in the Google books], Internet archive, and other online sources. From what I saw and read, it is indeed apparent that he continued editing it, so I've just rephrased and added a bit. Didn't add about "and Review", as it is not too related to Angell. Does it work? – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 13:34, 2 September 2022 (UTC)
- That works; passing. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 15:09, 2 September 2022 (UTC)
