Complete expressions of all even correlations for the triangular Ising model in a recent exact evaluation of P(h,T), the local magnetic field distribution, are obtained from the Pfaffian representation derived by Stephenson. The results for the ferromagnetic J<0 and antiferromagnetic J>0 cases contain a number of interesting features previously not pointed out in the Ising literature. As a bonus, some new inequalities relating odd and even correlations are also obtained.

Some of these, notably S123 and S135, can be obtained by the startriangular theorem,

Barry
et al.,

(
1982
). However their methods of obtaining S124 and S12345 are in error resulting in the violation of our correlation inequalities Eq. (25). Our calculations for the ferromagnetic triangular lattice P(h,T) for T<Tc is hence incomplete.
