Excerpt from The History of the Tenth Massachusetts Battery of Light Artillery in the War of the Rebellion: Formerly of the Third Corps, and Afterwards of Hancock's Second Corps, Army of the Potomac, 1862-1865

No attempt has been made to correct orthography or supply omissions in the records of the Morning Reports. They are re produced as written (save the daily reports of the number of men and horses present which are omitted.) A few hiatuses in the narrative are due to the breaking off of pieces of the leaves in using, the book having been reduced to tinder in the safe of Major Sleeper during the great Boston fire of 1871.

The work of compilation, composition, and correction, though approved by the whole committee. Was devolved on one who hereby assumes all responsibility for whatever faults the vol ume shall be found to have.
