Note 563 — Chapter II · (continued 2)

Gen. Carrington has contributed other papers on the battle to the Granite Monthly, vii. 290, and Bay State Monthly, May, 1884. Edward E. Hale has given accounts in his One Hundred Years Ago (ch. 4) and in a chapter in Memorial Hist. Boston, vol. iii. Dr. George E. Ellis was one of the earliest to collate carefully the sources in his Battle of Bunker Hill (1843). Barry (Massachusetts, iii. ch. 1) gives the story with care, and fortifies it by references. Irving's account (Washington, i. ch. 40, 41) is of course flowingly done.
