- In the History section, is this ---> "A forest and a woodman felling a tree, a buffalo leaving the forest and fleeing through the plain to a distant forest, and sun in the west with the word Indiana", suppose to be italicized? Same section, it would be best if "Indiana General Assembly" is linked once, per here.

- Hello I believe I have addressed your concerns from above
- I added commas after the years
- De-linked 1963
- Linked only the first occurrence of Indiana General Assembly
- Removed the Italics from the quotation and replaced them with quotation marks.
