Point out the error, and then offer your own. Just make it kinda hard or tricky to spot.
William H. Rehnquist, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, wrote Grand Inquest, a book about the Senate impeachment trials of Smauel Chase and Andrew Johnson.
Change Smauel to Samuel.
[sup]We are talking about grammatical mistakes, aren’t we? Otherwise, I’m gonna feel like a complete dork…[/sup]

“… a complete dork…” – Joyful Girl
Should read “… a total dork…”

I suspect should naturally read “that that”.
Yep, that’s the one!
Here’s another:

wasn’t he actually in athens?
… citizens of Sparta, insistently questioning …
insistenly should be incess…, uhm, inssess, no that’s not
right, hold please,… yes here is your listing:incessantly

It might be erroneous, but it’s not an intentional error. Try again.
I suspect your sentence should naturally read that “I suspect your sentence should naturally read ‘that that’”.
