Cowan discusses an article on the Battle of Gettysburg Hunt previously wrote for Century Magazine. Expresses disappointment that historians continually fail to mention his battery in descriptions of the battle. Discusses a correction he previously asked Hunt to make in the article regarding his battery. Includes a copy of Century's reply to Hunt, after Hunt requested the change. Century agrees to the edit, noting that there is ample time to make the correction before their War Book is printed. Includes the copied signature of R. M. Johnson, associate editor of Century.
