Excerpt from The Papers of Captain Rufus Lincoln of Wareham, Mass: Compiled From the Original Records

The pages are given in his own words and style, without change, except for an occasional explanatory note and the supplying Of missing data from authentic sources, to complete the story or article.

AS will be noted, the papers consist of a number of memorandum books or dia ries, nearly all home-made, letters from some of his old soldier friends, Company Reports, and odd memoranda.

Several of the books were written while he was a prisoner of war on parole at Flatlands, Long Island, some at New Windsor (newburgh), N. Y., while in camp, and other entries made after his return home.

Of these papers, the following have appeared in print: The List of Prisoners on Long Island was published in a different form, in the Spirit of September, 1899, and the American Magazine for November, 1896, published the Celebration of the Birth of the Dauphin Of France.

Rufus Lincoln filed claims against the Government for his pay and for money advanced for the company he raised and equipped. With these claims were many valuable papers, among them -his discharge, all of which were destroyed when the British burned Washington in 1814.
