Source Notes
Sy Scholfield quotes from Prins Oscar Bernadotte by Alfred Jansson (Norstedt & Söner, 1948), pp 11-13: "Tisdagen den 15 november 1859 klockan halv 4 e. m. dånade från Skeppsholmsbatteriet två gånger fyrtiotvå skott, förkunnande för huvudstadens inbyggare, att en ny arvprins kommit till världen. ... Sedan hertiginnan klockan 3.10 blivit lyckligen förlöst."
Translation: On Tuesday, 15 November 1859 at 3:30 pm shots rang out proclaiming to the capital's inhabitants that a new Hereditary Prince had come into the world... Since the Duchess at 3.10 had been happily delivered.
