Thanks for finding the 'Bio' information on Lt. John Taylor Haines.

BTW - I thought it real interesting to see the mention of successful Danish and Norwegian 'chargers', to allow rapid-loading of the magazine, in Lt. Haines 1895 response, published in the 'Army Navy Journal'.
(A quick-load solution was there from the start. We just didn't use it).
