For some reason I'm thinking that Tom Weynand is a member of the forum? If I'm right, he's got copies of all the articles.

It would be nice if he were to publish these articles, if he has permission. Kevin McCormack has put together a collection of information on Hedderly's articles and indicated an intent to publish. I found a picture of Hedderly holding his long barrel 16 gauge Parker, but no one, to this date, has indicated an interest to publish his work on long barrel small gauge guns.

Good reading c. 1914
“The Case of the Small Bore Shotgun” by Edward C. Crossman

Wow!! Mr. Crossman was already trying to kill off the 16-gauge!! Obviously, he didn't like Parker Bros. 0-frame 28-gauges either!! He said only two American companies were making 28-gauges. I assume he was thinking Parker Bros. and Ithaca Gun Co., but Crescent Fire Arms Co. had their No. 28 and Harrington & Richardson also offered a 28-gauge double in 1914.
