Clarification on years? edit
In the opening below (from this revision) it looks like this person was licensed to practice law seven years before he was born. Also, he is said to have dies both in 1971 and in 1929. Can we get some clarifications on these dates/years?
Samuel Parsons Scott (9 January 1875 – 26 September 1929), known as S.P. Scott, was an American attorney, banker, and scholar.[1] Born in Hillsboro, Ohio, he earned his A.B. degree from Miami University of Ohio in 1868 and his A.M. degree from the same institution the following year. He was licensed to practice law in 1868 and was an attorney for several years in Leavenworth, Kansas and in San Francisco.[2] In 1875 Scott left the practice of law to return to Hillsboro and the family banking business.[3] In the following years he traveled in Europe, studied, and wrote.[4] He also was elected a fellow of the Royal Meteorological Society in 1913.[5]
