These notes discuss the authenticity of a painting by Francis Guy. Whitman wrote about Guy and one of his paintings in the installment of his "Brooklyniana" series published in the
Brooklyn Standard
on 28 December 1861. The piece is titled "Brooklyniana No. 3," but was actually the fourth installment to appear; an installment also titled "No. 3" had appeared in the Standard on 12 June 1861.
