That November 8, while still in Confederate territory, the 1864 presidential election took place.

I'm not totally sure what the particular relevance of this line is. Am I missing something? G M G talk  18:14, 9 April 2018 (UTC)

User:Vermont, not sure what's up with the discrepancy, but this source has his dates of services in the House as 1880-1884. G M G talk  17:25, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Unsure, I wasn't the one who added that information. I'll investigate further.  Vermont &#124; reply here  17:33, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Overall I think it's getting to a pretty good place. Commons cat is nice and fleshed out already. I set up the Wikiquote today and did a lot of the particulars on Wikidata too.  G M G  talk  17:40, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Alright. I think I'm about done. If there are more sources out there, I'm not finding them. As far as I can tell, I've pretty much reached the end of what I personally have access to.  G M G  talk  18:59, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Oh. Not sure whats up with the familysearch.org reference. It seems to be broken.  G M G  talk  20:26, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Odd. I'll wait to get the book to do any more significant content additions; when I get it I'll know what to search for in terms of new references.  Vermont &#124; reply here  20:42, 10 April 2018 (UTC)

POW photo
The original is signed by the men in the photo. I can not find Mattocks' signature on it. I also fixed the "Columbia Exposition" section. Collect (talk) 14:23, 27 May 2018 (UTC)


 * I checked a clearer version located here, and it seems that he either isn’t in the picture, or his signature is the one on the top middle that’s cut in half by a tear in the paper. The first few letters of that look a like the one in his infobox; perhaps he shortened it to just his first name or the tear took part of it. Vermont (talk) 15:05, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
 * My problem is that we have no solid reliable source for saying he is in the photo. "Good Articles" have to check that sort of stuff.  AFAICT, none of the images really look that much like his portrait, but that is not evidence of much. Collect (talk) 18:05, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
