The entry for ‘Na-i-o-gui-man omits the page reference to p. [67]. The entry for Wallace Revell also omitted the reference to p. 138, n. 125.
The entry for ‘Order No. 45, to L’t. Lowman’, refers to a Lt. Samuel Bowman, and has been corrected.
In the appendix, p. 293 seems to have been missed during the editing of the original text. On that page, O.H. Browning is listed in the printed text as ‘O.S. Browning’ (which was hand-corrected in the text), referring to the future Senator O.H. Browning. The correction has been retained. Handwritten notes in the text also point out that a number of references on p. 293 were missed in the compilation of the index (for Joseph E. Johnson, John A. McClernand, and Capt. Harrison Wilson). Given that there may be other omissions, these were not added and are merely noted here.
The caption for the image of Rachael Munson between pp. 154 and 155 misspelled her first name (as ‘Rachel’), which was corrected for consistency. As noted below this variant appeared also on p. 152.
This table summarizes any corrections which were made to the text.
