Did you guys have occasion to research the James v. "Mart" McQuaid issue?

Scot, you may have brought a Cartophilic listing error to light that we missed. The bio is accurate, but per Baseball Reference the correct name is in fact Mortimer Martin McQuaid, or "Mart" for short. Subject matter 318 should perhaps be listed as:
318
McQUAID, Mortimer Martin, "Mart"
Here is link to
Mart's stats

Before closing the loop on this change, we need to reference period papers to see if he went by James during his playing days (not uncommon to play under false name).
