Excerpt from History of the 11th Indiana Battery: Connected With an Outline History of the Army of the Cumberland During the War of the Rebellion, 1861-1865
The undersigned having delivered, on the first Reunion of the 11th Indiana Battery, a sketch of the Batten and its doings during the war of the rebellion, has on a later reunion been made historian of the Association, with the charge of preparing a history as full and correct as can be made. As the writer has for his guidance only his short diary notes and some sketches, and remarks from some old comrades, it must not be expected that a history may be prepared from this material which excludes criticism, is free from error, and full and correct in every way. The writer can only relate such things as came under his immediate observation and from his own standpoint. Others may have seen the same occurrences from their standpoint, producing a different view, and may therefore differ from the writer in some of its details, but he will, to the best of his ability, try to be impartial and true in all the details of the work. The origin of any information embodied in this work not originating from himselff will be duly credited to the source of information.
Hoping this work will meet the approval of the comrades of the old 11th Indiana Battery, is the wish of the Writer.
