[4] Colonel Harvey Boyd McKeen, of Pennsylvania, commander of the Third Brigade.
[5] Columbus (Wis.) _Democrat_, May 27, 1895.
[6] Upon the Portage Public Library's copy of the original pamphlet edition, Hon. A. J. Turner wrote the following explanatory note:
"The within description of the 'The Battle of Gettysburg' was written by Colonel Frank A. Haskell who was on the staff of General John Gibbon, to his brother at Portage, Wisconsin. It was submitted to me soon after, in the _State Register_ office, but its great length rendered its publication in our columns quite impossible. The article was written from the 'Head Quarters of the Army of the Potomac,' but bore no date, although it was during the same month as the battle, and was written by Colonel Haskell in the intervals of the march, and was a private letter without design of publication--A. J. TURNER."
