  3. ^ Дневник на Христо Узунов (Memoires from Hristo Uzunov. The original was written in Bulgarian. The notes were made immediately after the Ilinden uprising for much of the winter of 1903, when Uzunov resided in Ohrid as illegal. In short, in chronological order, it traces the history of the Ohrid Revolutionary Organization from its inception in 1894 to the suppression of the uprising. Uzunov probably intended to write a story about the revolutionary movement in Ohrid. Some of the names and facts in the notebook are given with a cipher. They are decrypted by the voivode's brother - Angel Uzunov. All the pages in the notebook are not listed (p. 2, 6—94, 109, 115, 121—124, 130, 136—139).
