– Published in the Burlington Weekly Hawk-Eye,
Burlington, Iowa, Saturday, April 12, 1862, p. 3. Editors Note: the bracketed text was cut off
when the newspaper was microfilmed. The
same article appeared in Vanity Fair, April 5, 1862 and I have used that
article to reconstruct the missing text in this article.
