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.
