Both men were in Cuba out of fear of being prosecuted in the United States for their actions during the Civil War. This photograph was published in Earlys book,Lieutenant General Jubal Anderson Early, C.S.A. Autobiographical Sketch and Narrative of the War Between the States (1912), a posthumous publication that included notes by his wife, Ruth Hairston Early.
