For Sargent 1916 Ch. XVIII-XIX, which statements are the author's claims, which are his examples, quoted authorities or market assertions; what OCR and provenance limits apply; and how do his 'heart interest' and 'distinction' compare with Baker (C3-B239-S63) and Aristotle (C3-B283-S92)?

1916 US practice, with a provenance and comparison layer. In the two chapters, definitions, techniques and the charm/distinction opposition are Sargent's claims; the mother, peasant, fisherman, slavey, street-passers and Dickens passages are examples or a quoted third party (Chesterton); 'constant demand', 'best selling', 'surest approach to editorial approval' and 'large hands and small brains' are unsupported assertions about market or audience. The text is the Internet Archive OCR of a UC Los Angeles copy of the third edition (copyright notices 1913 and 1916, Chalmers Publishing Company); OCR defects are listed with offsets. Compared by candidate ID only: Baker (C3-B239-S63-02, -04) gives emotion as the aim and warns of over-feeling, Sargent adds a blamelessness and restraint rule; Aristotle (C3-B283-S92-04, -08) uses 'distinction' of word choice above the commonplace, which is not Sargent's distinction of theme.

Curator qualifications: Heart interest, charm and distinction verified as Sargent definitions, with Chesterton quoted as a third party; unsupported trade assertions are flagged by the producer. The -07 review list is derived from the source and its table procedure is a proposal. Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
