  • Meets the date and length criteria and is well-written and cited. Not self-nominated so QPQ is not an issue. The photo is in public domain because it was a US Government work. I personally prefer the first hook but it is a tad too long (205 char with spaces). Alt1 meets the length criteria but I'll propose an Alt2 as well.
ALT2:... that Landon Carter Haynes (pictured) once shot rival newspaperman and politician William G. "Parson" Brownlow and later was accused by Brownlow of stealing corn and selling diseased hogs? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Allecher (talkcontribs) 3:13, 10 February 2013
ALT2 works for me. Thanks for the review. --Orlady (talk) 04:48, 10 February 2013 (UTC)
