Articles both pass the DYK criteria of newness and length. The first hook, which I prefer, is well cited, the alternative hook is accepted in good faith. The interesting image is in the public domain. My only query is about the date of Selby's death. If he died in 1823, how did his heir inherit the property in 1815?
