Expand?

This article has a LOT of sources, but no one bothered writing a comprehensive biography. I think the article could/should be expanded. Also, the first sentence should mention that he is most noted for being the oldest alumnus of Rutgers and Harvard (and was New Jersey's oldest resident at the time of his death).Ryoung122 03:18, 16 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Error?

The article says, "He was a 1917 graduate of Rutgers University and a 1924 graduate of Harvard Law School. He practiced law through his 90s. Seward died on September 14, 2008, at the age of 111." It also says he was born in 1896.

So, wait, he graudated from Rutgers at 11 and Harvard at 18? Wilybadger (talk) 00:58, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please try the math again. Last I checked, 1917-1896=21, not 11 years. And 1924-1896=28, not 18, years.Ryoung122 00:59, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, sorry, I was just about to come back and remove that as Mr Brain kicked into action. *blush* Sorry! :) 01:05, 17 September 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wilybadger (talk • contribs)
