1953 F100 WIRING

I'm wiring my stock '53 F100. It's got a 215 six. I've mounted the one and only terminal block that I have to the left of the horn relay. The block has three terminal connectors. I assume that one is the 10 ga. wire that comes from the battery negative via the solenoid. From there, it goes across the cowl into the cab and to the ignition switch, via the ammeter loop and circuit breaker. This same "always hot" terminal is also connected to a second 10 ga. over to the horn relay for the horn power? And the second and third terminal posts are for the starter switch to solenoid connection and the horn button to horn relay connection? Those are the only connections that I believe are on that side of the truck which might use a terminal block connection. Does this sound right? It looks like the lighting wiring is more or less over on the other side of the engine compartment. And most of those connections are made using simple snap-in bullet connections? Have What have I missed?
