      AUTHOR’S NOTE

      Giacinto De’ Sivo, a well-known historian, wrote of six towns that were set to fire on page 447 of his History of the Two Sicilies. Given that many historical researchers, including myself and the good Gigi Di Fiore, have taken for granted that there were six towns that were razed over a period of nine months, but as reported by the historian of Maddalonie established through continuous research that the actual number of countries burned by General Pinelli under the command of General Cialdini were twenty-two, we can assume that this mistake is not the fault of De Sivo, or that of Di Fiore nor of the undersigned if, sometimes, you come across some errors. The state of Italy has not yet organized its archives or has kept them under military control. The same is true for Eleonoro Negri, considered the Butcher of Pontelandolfo, while others believe that it was Gaetano Negri. However, both were executioners of so-called brigands and operated in the same areas. We are still waiting for the government to release with certainty that it was and how many died during the civil war that bloodied the South.

      The name of Gaetano Negri has been used by many historical researchers, among which we can mention lofty names such as: Luisa Sangiuolo, Michele Topa, Roberto Martucci, Nicola Nisco, Nicolina Valillo, Vencenzo Mazzacane, Carlo Alianiello, Cesare Cesari, Ferdinando Melchiorre, Marco Monier, Gustavo Rinaldi. In the State archives of Vial Lepanto in Rome the name of Negri never appears, nor does it mention Carlo Melegari, who led the Bersaglieri to Casalduni. The author of this book has identified in Gaetano Negri the Butcher of Pontelandolfo, but perhaps it could be an error. It seems that the author of the massacre was Eleonoro Negri, but no one can prove it with certainty. A researcher from Vicenza, Andrea Kozlocic, in a historical essay entitled Bersaglieri, wrote that Pier Eleonoro Negri, born in Locara in the province of Vicenza, of a noble family, who at the time of the massacre was 44 years old and a lieutenant colonel who had already been decorated for the battle of Garigliano against the army of Francis II. This nobleman, if it is truly him, was decorated, while Matteo Negri, from Palermo, who died defending what was then his homeland, was given no recognition or tombstone from the new fledgling State. In the United States of America, once the civil war was over, a brotherhood was formed between winners and losers. In the southern states the flags of Dixie are affixed on public buildings, always present in official memorial parades; the streets are named after the heroes of both sides, as are the schools and army departments. Republican Italy, born on the ashes of the House of Savoy and fascism, has not been able to remedy this error. In France, the French celebrate the birth of the republic on July 14th of each year. In Israel they do not have streets named after Hitler who massacred six million
