    I'm wondering how most people treat titles of publications, documents, and sections of documents. Does it go like this:
    Titles of publications (“New York Times”): cap and quote
    Titles of documents (Notice of Deposition and Request to Produce Documents): cap only
    Titles of sections (“diagnosis”): quote only

      Can anyone please advise me how to quote a word at the end of a quoted sentence?  I've looked and cannot find a rule.  THANKS!!

      Sentence:

      A. "Swallowing reasonably well most days" --
      A. Uh-huh.
      Q. -- "but is episodically 'choking.'" correct?
