Je les tiens donc, ces Anglais!_—NAPOLEON. - - -Never since the days of Oliver Cromwell had any name caused so much fear -in England as did that of Napoleon Bonaparte. From 1802 until his first -downfall, in 1814, a spirit of alarm and uneasiness pervaded all classes -in Great Britain, from the King and his Ministers down to the most -illiterate peasant. Those who were witnesses of, and participators in, -this panic have now passed away, but the national pride which our -victory over Napoleon at Waterloo excited in every Briton’s breast is as -strong as ever, and will last till the crack of doom. - -In July, 1803, a little pamphlet, entitled _Important Considerations for -the People of this Kingdom_, was published in London, and “sent to the -officiating minister of every parish in England.” This pamphlet, which -bears the Royal Arms of England, was an appeal from the Government to -the Nation, and a diatribe against Napoleon. Mark the closing lines of -this appeal: “Shall we, who are abundantly supplied with iron and steel, -powder and lead—shall we, who have a fleet superior to the maritime -force of all the world, and who are able to bring two millions of -fighting men into the field—shall we yield up this dear and happy land, -together with all the liberties and honours, to preserve which our -fathers so often dyed the land and the sea with their blood?... No, we -are not so miserably fallen; we cannot, in so short a space of time, -have become so detestably degenerate; we have the strength and the will -to repel the hostility, to chastise the insolence of the foe. Mighty, -indeed, must be our efforts, but mighty also is the need.” The idea of a -French invasion was slow in forcing its way into the minds of the -uneducated classes in England. When they first heard of such a -possibility they thought it of no more consequence than the invasion of -Scotland by Charles Edward Stuart with a mere handful of Frenchmen at -his back. They also thought less of the projected descent from having -heard so much in 1797, and during the Rebellion in Ireland in 1798, of a -French army coming to the relief of the National party in that kingdom:— - - “For the French are on the sea, - Says the Shan Van Vaugh, - And Ireland will soon be free, - Says the Shan Van Vaugh.” - -And yet nothing had come of all this talk! But when the nation at large -had fully grasped the possibility of a Napoleonic invasion, Pitt had no -difficulty in raising the sinews of war. No fewer than 300,000 men -enrolled themselves in volunteer corps and defence associations. The -army and navy were increased, and everything was done that was possible -to counteract the power of that wonderful man, who, in the short space -of a few years, had, speaking metaphorically, built a Great Wall of -China round the British Isles, shutting the English out of the commerce -of Europe. Our preparations were none too soon. In 1805 the battle of -Austerlitz established the supremacy of Napoleon over Austria and -Russia. Fortunately for England, Nelson’s crowning victory at Trafalgar -indefinitely postponed Napoleon’s invasion scheme; but we were still -engaged in a gigantic war, single-handed, with half of Europe our -declared, and the other half our enforced, enemies. Nelson was dead; -Pitt was dying from the weight of anxieties which pressed upon him in -this tremendous crisis; Hanover had been taken from us. The outlook was -very gloomy, and affairs became more complicated in 1807, when the -military expeditions, arranged by Lord Grenville’s ministry, against -Constantinople and Egypt, had turned out failures, and resulted in the -Turks declaring war against us and confiscating all British property. -And yet in 1807 Napoleon had not yet reached the zenith of his power. -For the next five years he held the destinies of nearly the whole of -Europe in his own hands. Monarchies of long standing were disestablished -and new kingdoms—Napoleonic kingdoms—were raised up in their place. -Immense French armies traversed Europe from Portugal to the heart of -Russia, and every capital within that limit was, in its turn, subjugated -to the French yoke. But in 1808 two British Generals stemmed the tide of -French conquest in the Peninsula, viz., Sir John Moore and Sir Arthur -Wellesley. The first met a soldier’s death at Corunna, and the latter -was superseded by an incapable commander. But the British Government -soon found that they had made a grievous mistake, and Wellesley was -again entrusted with the supreme command in Portugal. Then commenced -that series of brilliant campaigns which liberated Portugal and Spain -from the Napoleonic grasp, and only ceased after the battle of Toulouse -by Napoleon’s abdication at Fontainebleau. In the spring of 1814 England -had a large army, composed for the most part of seasoned veterans, who -were fit for anything and worth millions. When war broke out again, in -the spring of 1815, at least half of the Peninsular army had been -disbanded—dispersed—and not to be had at any price. Some of the best of -the old Peninsular regiments had been sent to America in 1814, and -several of them—the gallant 43rd Light Infantry being one—did not reach -Waterloo in time to take part in the battle. Raw levies took their -place, and foreign auxiliaries helped to bring up Wellington’s army in -Flanders to the required strength. Of Wellington’s 106,000 barely -one-third were British. The remainder consisted of “King’s German -Legion,” “Hanoverian Levies,” “Brunswick Contingent,” “Nassau -Contingent,” “Dutch and Belgian Troops,” and “Nassauers in Dutch -service.” Of this polyglot force the German Legion, both cavalry and -infantry, were deserving of the highest praise for their conduct on -Waterloo Day. They formed part of the British army for nearly a dozen -years, and many British officers held commissions in the “Legion.” I -have been obliged to leave out the German Legion officers in the -following ROLL CALL (excepting those who served on the Staff), and it -would be invidious, when all did so well, to pick out the British -officers who served in the “Legion” at Waterloo and record their -services when those of their German brother-officers are omitted. I -cannot even make an exception of Colonel (afterwards Baron) Hugh -Halkett, who, like a knight in the olden days of chivalry, singled out a -French general (Cambronne) in single combat, and took him prisoner. - -The Hanoverian levies did well also, excepting one regiment, which -refused to charge the French when commanded so to do. And this was -doubtless owing to the _lâcheté_ of their colonel, who, when ordered to -lead his regiment to the charge, declined to do so, saying he had no -confidence in his men. It is related that Captain Horace Seymour, who -had brought this officer Lord Uxbridge’s orders, addressed “a few words -of plain Saxon” to him, “which no gentleman ought to have listened to -unmoved,” but the only effect they had on the Hanoverian was to hasten -his departure to the rear. The Brunswick Contingent fought at a -disadvantage at Waterloo, having lost their brave leader (the Duke of -Brunswick) at Quatre Bras. Of the Nassau, Dutch, and Belgian troops it -is only fair to say that they were, mostly, utterly useless at Waterloo. -The glamour of Napoleon was upon them. They had lately been in his -service, and had a settled conviction that Wellington would be defeated -and his army cut to pieces. “Come over to us, brave Belgians!” shouted a -French regiment at Waterloo to their Belgian opponents in the battle. -But the “brave Belgians” preferred making “a retrograde movement for -strategical reasons,” and retired from the field, carrying news of -Wellington’s defeat to Brussels. - -Now for Napoleon’s army: This consisted on the 15th of June of about -128,000 men[A]—mostly veterans who had served in many campaigns, and to -whom defeat was rare. Add to this, that they all belonged to one nation, -and were all equally devoted to their beloved emperor. “No army,” says -Colonel Chesney, in his _Waterloo Lecture_, “was probably ever so well -furnished with leaders as his, as none had ever the like experience -wherewith to train them.” It is no slight to Wellington to say that -Napoleon was, for rapid and offensive warfare, by far the first general -of his day. In defensive warfare Wellington was much in advance of his -great rival. Taking the words out of Philip the Second’s mouth, -Wellington might have with truth said, “Time and I against any other -two.” Once more: Wellington himself told Earl Stanhope that he -considered the presence of Napoleon with the French army at Waterloo -fully equivalent to an additional force of 30,000 men! Now this was the -total of the force sent under Marshal Grouchy, on the 17th June, to -follow the Prussian army, which had been defeated at Ligny by Napoleon -on the previous day, and which was supposed to be in full retreat on -Namur and Liége, so that, in round numbers, Napoleon was himself -considered equal to a whole army corps! If the British had a Picton, the -French had a Ney, who was considered almost Napoleon’s equal in handling -troops in the field, and who had pressed us so sorely at Quatre Bras, on -the 16th of June, when only half our army had arrived at that position. -Then as a leader of cavalry Lord Uxbridge was well matched by -Kellermann, whose fame as a cavalry general dated from Marengo. And -General Mouton (Count Lobau) was an infantry leader of whom any army -might have been proud. It was he who, at the head of the Imperial Foot -Guards, had wrested the victory from the Prussians on the bloody field -of Lützen, in 1813, and saved the French army from a reverse. Enough has -now been said to show what a splendid army the British had opposed to -them on the 18th of June, 1815. “I have them at last, these English!” -exclaimed Napoleon, in a transport of joy, early in the morning of that -day, when he saw our army drawn up in position, with their backs to the -forest of Soignies. But he underrated Wellington’s generalship, nor -could he foresee how the British generals, officers, and men of all -ranks would fight that memorable day, when the eyes of all Europe were -upon them, because upon the issue of that contest depended the fate of -empires and kingdoms, as well as the future peace of the world. And -knowing, as we all do, what glory the victory at Waterloo brought to our -countrymen and our country, we must be generous enough to give the brave -Prussians the full share due to them for their co-operation on that day. -Had it not been for them, Waterloo would have been as barren a victory -as Borodino, and Napoleon would have retreated in as good order, -probably, as Blucher was able to do after his defeat at Ligny. As it -was, our troops bore the whole brunt of the battle without losing an -inch of ground, and the arrival of the Prussians, at the close of the -day, sealed the fate of Napoleon.[B] - -Footnote A: - - Lord Wolseley, in his _Decline and Fall of Napoleon_, says the French - army consisted of about 123,000 men of all arms and 344 guns.—ED. - - * * * * * - -In offering this, the first annotated Waterloo Army List, to the British -public, I must ask their indulgence for any omissions and errors it may -contain. Although I have spared no trouble in the matter, there must be, -I well know, a few names of British Waterloo officers who have escaped -my notice. But when the following list is compared with the very -defective lists given by Siborne and George Jones (the foundation of all -other lists), I think the following ROLL CALL will be found infinitely -more trustworthy. I have also added the regimental and army commissions -of the Waterloo officers up to the date of the battle, and the honours -and promotions bestowed after Waterloo. The war services of _many_ of -these same officers now appear in print for the first time, and are not -to be found in the _Military Calendar_ of field officers which was -published in 1820, nor in Hart’s _Army Lists_, which date from 1840, and -are such valuable works of reference. Of course, a large proportion of -the names I have annotated, genealogically, are names of well-known -families of the present time, but there are also many names in the -following ROLL CALL which belong to families that are now extinct or -lost sight of. I have endeavoured to rescue as many names from oblivion -as time would allow, but there are a certain number of whom I can give -no information beyond their obituary notices: - - “Here lies Pat Steele. That’s very true. - Who was he? What was he? What’s that to you?” - -As regards the orthography of the names in the regimental lists, I am -not responsible, as they are copied from the “official” _Army List_. The -same rule applies to the precedence of the different regiments. - -I am indebted to Colonel F.A. Whinyates, late R.H.A., for some -interesting information regarding artillery officers, and to George -Tancred, Esq., late captain Scots Greys, for the Waterloo muster-roll -and some memoranda relating to the Scots Greys. - - CHARLES DALTON. - -32 WEST CROMWELL ROAD, LONDON, S.W. - - _June 1, 1890._ - -Footnote B: - - “I should not do justice to my feelings, or to Marshal Blücher and - the Prussian Army, if I did not attribute the success of this - arduous day to the cordial and timely assistance I received from - them.”—_Wellington’s despatch to Earl Bathurst._ - - ABBREVIATIONS. - - - Par. = Peninsular. - - Pa. = Peninsula. - - G.C.H. = Knight Grand Cross of Hanover. - - K.C.H. = Knight Commander of Hanover. - - K.H. = Knight of Hanover. - - K.M.T. = Knight of Maria Theresa of Austria. - - K.

In Sir D. Baird’s - despatch, announcing the victory of the British troops, occurs this - passage: “Your lordship will perceive the name of Lt.-Col. Grant - among the wounded; but the heroic spirit of this officer was not - subdued by his misfortune, and he continued to lead his men to glory - as long as an enemy was opposed to the 72nd Regt.” The following is - an authentic anecdote:— - - Sir Colquhoun Grant, being in command of a regt. at Clonmel, he gave - offence in some way to an honest shopkeeper, named Mulcahy, who - struck him on the parade, in presence of his whole corps. The - officers rushed forward to seize the delinquent, but Sir Colquhoun - interposed, declaring that he had been the aggressor, and as the - gentleman thought proper to resent his conduct in so gross a manner, - it remained for him to seek the usual reparation. “Oh!” exclaimed - Mulcahy, “if it’s for fighting you are, I’ll fight you; but it shall - neither be with swords nor pistols, nor anything else but my two - fists” (and fine big mutton fists they were, sure enough). “Well, - then,” replied the gallant officer, “with all my heart. By insulting - you, I have put myself on a level with you, and of course cannot - refuse to meet you on your own terms. Come along, sir.” The men were - dismissed; and Col. Grant, accompanied by his adversary and some - mutual friends, repaired to the mess-room, where he very speedily - closed up Mr. Mulcahy’s peepers, and sent him home perfectly - satisfied. That was the proudest day of Mulcahy’s life, and many a - time has he boasted of the black eye he got from a K.C.B., as if it - were an honourable ordinary emblazoned upon his escutcheon. “Ever - since that morning,” would he say, “let me meet Sir Colquhoun Grant, - where I might, in town or country, among lords or ladies, dressed in - plain clothes or dizened out in gold and scarlet, he would give me - his hand and say,‘How are you, Billy?’” - - In Aug., 1808, Grant was appointed lt.-col. of the 15th Lt.

The example he set, both at Quatre - Bras and Waterloo, had much to do with the victory then obtained - over the French. When Napoleon’s “Old Guard” made that gigantic and - final effort, on the evening of June 18th, to retrieve the fortunes - of the day, it was Maitland’s brigade which checked their advance - and drove them headlong down the bloody slope. “Now, Maitland, now’s - your time!” said Wellington, as the leading column of the French - Guards approached the crest of the slope where the British Guards - were stationed—the front rank kneeling. How Maitland responded is - told in the words of Col. J. H. Stanhope in his letter to the Duke - of York:—“Were it possible for me to add anything to the reputation - of Maitland by stating the gallantry he has shown, cheering on with - his hat off, I could dwell long on the subject.” Made K.C.B., 22nd - June, 1815.

The third distinguished soldier of this - family was the above Wm. Howe De Lancey, who was only son of S. De - Lancey, Gov. of Tobago, by Cornelia his wife, who d. in 1817. His - early career was one of renown, and in 1799 we find him maj. of the - 45th Regt., at the age of 21. On 4th April, 1815, he was married, in - Scotland, to the beautiful Magdalen Hall, dau. of Sir James Hall, - Bart., of Dunglass, by Lady Helen Douglas, dau. of 4th Earl of - Selkirk. The return of Napoleon from Elba once more called De Lancey - to the seat of war. Leaving his fair young wife, he proceeded, in - May, to Brussels, whither he was followed, the first week in June, - by his bride. At Waterloo, when riding by Wellington’s side, the - wind of a cannon ball knocked him off his horse. This, it was - afterwards found, had separated the ribs from the back-bone, and - caused a fatal injury. Wellington caused De Lancey to be removed to - a hut in a blanket. For some days hopes were entertained of his - recovery, and he was devotedly nursed by his sorrow-stricken wife, - whose perilous drive to the battle-field, and her experiences, were - lately given in the _Illustrated Naval and Military Magazine_, from - an old MS. narrative written by herself. After lingering ten days, - the hero died. - - “Fair lady’s love, and splendid fame, - De Lancey did enthral. - His loyal heart alike they claim, - They sigh to see him fall.” - - ASSISTANT QUARTERMASTERS-GENERAL. - -Col.

After Waterloo was appointed A.D.C. to - Wellington, which post he held during the British occupation in - France. The following anecdote is from _Reminiscences of Wellington - and Anecdotes of his Staff_, by Lord Wm. Lennox:—“Felton Hervey, of - the 14th, who had lost an arm when in pursuit of the enemy flying - from Oporto, always mounted himself and his orderly upon English - hunters, so as to make his escape should he at any time be - unexpectedly surrounded. Upon one occasion, when reconnoitring, - Hervey rode up, by mistake, to a small detachment of French cavalry. - Fortunately for him, the men were dismounted, and busily employed in - cooking their rations; but no sooner was the colonel discovered, and - his rank recognized, than the order to mount was given. Hervey and - his orderly, finding the odds greatly against them, immediately - started off at a tremendous pace to reach our lines. The French - dragoons were quickly in their saddles, for the prize was worth - gaining, and amidst wild shouts and loud halloes, gave chase to - their flying foes. The noise attracted the attention of some of the - enemy’s lancers, who, being posted nearer the English forces, were - enabled to cut off the retreat of the fugitives. The clattering of - the horses’ hoofs, who had thus joined in the pursuit, sounded like - a death-knell to the two gallant soldiers. ‘Your only chance, - colonel,’ said the faithful orderly, ‘is to make for that ravine.’ - Hervey followed the suggestion; the ravine was narrow, with only - room for one horse to enter. No sooner had he gained it than, on - looking round, a terrible sight presented itself. The devoted - soldier, knowing that the life of his commanding officer could alone - be saved by the sacrifice of his own, had placed himself across the - narrow opening, and was literally pierced and cut to pieces. The - delay thus occasioned enabled Hervey to pursue his flight. Gaining - the open, he charged a stiff fence, and was soon out of sight of his - pursuers.” He m., 1817, Louisa Catherine, 3rd dau. of Richard Caton, - of Maryland, U.S.A.; was created a baronet, with remainder to his - brother Frederick, 3rd Oct., 1818, and d. s. p. 24th Sept., 1819. - -Lt.-Col.

In that branch - of the Army he was employed in Holland and Belgium, in 1814 and - 1815, and in the Waterloo campaign did good service in clearing the - roads, and on the Duke of Wellington’s Staff. He accompanied the - army to Paris, and was afterwards selected to go to St. Helena with - Napoleon. In that island he remained till about a year and a half - before Napoleon’s death. At a later period he was employed in Nova - Scotia and in Canada, taking part in the construction of the Rideau - Canal.

He - accompanied Sir A. Wellesley to the Peninsula, and was for a - considerable time on the staff of the army. For his services in - Spain he obtained the gold cross with six clasps, and in Jan., 1815, - was made K.C.B. He was a splendid soldier, but a bad French scholar. - “When he wished his dinner to be arranged on the table, he used, as - it were, to address the dishes, ‘_Bif-teck venez içi!

During his residence there he frequently heard from his - great chief, Wellington, his attached friend. “We are both growing - old,” wrote the Duke to Campbell; “God knows if we shall ever meet - again. Happen what may, I shall never forget our first meeting under - the walls of Ahmednuggur.” Sir Colin returned to England in June, - 1847, and d. on the 13th of same month, in London, aged seventy-one, - and was buried in St. James’s Church, Piccadilly. - - BRITISH AND HANOVERIAN ARMY - AT - WATERLOO, - - _As formed in Divisions and Brigades on the 18th June, 1815._ - - -------------- - - CAVALRY. - - Commanded by Lieut.-Gen. the Earl of UXBRIDGE, G.C.B. - - _1st Brigade._—Commanded by Major-Gen.

Again signally distinguished - himself at the battles of Salamanca and Vittoria. His experiences at - Waterloo were almost unique, as when lying grievously wnded. on the - field, after a most gallant charge, in the French lines, a lancer who - was passing by and saw Ponsonby move, exclaimed: “_Tu n’est pas mort, - coquin_,” and struck his lance through the English officer’s back. “My - head dropped” (wrote Ponsonby in his subsequent narrative of his - experiences), “the blood gushed into my mouth, a difficulty of - breathing came on, and I thought all was over.” But the bitterness of - death was not yet past. Soon after, a tirailleur came up and roughly - searched him all over, robbing Ponsonby of what money he had about - him. He was hardly quit of this scoundrel before another appeared with - the same intent. At last a good Samaritan appeared in the shape of a - French officer, who administered brandy to the apparently dying - Englishman, and then passed on “to pursue the retreating British”! - What followed is best given in Ponsonby’s own words: “Presently - another tirailleur appeared, who came and knelt and fired over me, - loading and firing many times, and conversing with great gaiety all - the while. At last he ran off.” The evening came, and with it the - Prussians. “Two squadrons of Prussian cavalry, both of them two deep, - passed over me in full trot, lifting me from the ground and tumbling - me about cruelly. A German soldier, bent on plunder, came and pulled - me about roughly before he left me.” An English private next appeared, - and on Ponsonby telling him who he was, the soldier picked up a sword - and stood sentry over him. Next morning Ponsonby was removed in a cart - to a farmhouse, and laid in a bed from which poor Sir A. Gordon had - just been carried out dead. Col. Ponsonby had received seven wounds; a - surgeon slept in his room, and he was saved by continual bleeding—120 - ounces in two days, besides the great loss of blood on the - field.—_Narrative._ M., 1825, Emily, youngest dau. of 3rd Earl - Bathurst, and had issue.

Patrick Doherty belonged to a good old Irish family which has - done good service to its country, both in the army and on the judicial - bench. In the two great wars in which Great Britain played a leading - part during the 19th century, the 13th Regt. of Lt. Dgns. (Hussars) - has been commanded by a Doherty; and three generations of this family - have been closely associated with this same regt. In 1796 Patrick - Doherty embarked for the West Indies with his regt. on active service. - It is on record that no less than twenty-two officers of the 13th Lt. - Dgns. fell victims to “Yellow Jack” when serving in St. Domingo; and - the skeleton of the regt., with two or three surviving officers, - returned to England. This fatality brought rapid promotion to Doherty, - and in 1813 he succeeded to the command of the 13th. For his services - in the Pa. he was made bt.-col. The editor of the _Military Calendar_ - states that on Waterloo Day Col. Doherty was lying ill at Brussels, - suffering from a most severe attack of West Indian fever and ague; but - as it is probable that he took part in the operations of the 16th or - 17th June, it does not debar him from being added to the roll of - Waterloo officers. He undoubtedly received the medal for Waterloo, as - well as the C.B. in 1816. Col. Doherty was subsequently made K.C.H. - Quitted the service in Dec., 1818, and d. at Bath, 20th Jan., 1837. He - was uncle to John Doherty, of Dublin, who held the high post of Chief - Justice of Ireland, and dying, in 1850, left, with other male issue, - the present Maj. H. Doherty, of the Artillery Militia, who formerly - commanded a troop in the 3rd Hussars. - -Footnote 2: - - Made C.B. for Waterloo. Served in the Pa. 2nd son of Samuel Boyse, of - Barrow, New Ross, co. Wexford, by Dorothea, dau. of Shapland Carew, of - Castleboro, same county.

Whilst one brother had been sent to the rear on the - evening of 17th June as officer in charge of the baggage guard of 18th - Hussars, the eldest brother, John Dawson, 2nd Earl of Portarlington, - had betaken himself that same evening to Brussels or elsewhere. The - consequence of this step was that “on the morning of Waterloo, by an - unfortunate mistake, he was prevented from joining his regiment in - time to command it in the brilliant exploits it performed on that - memorable day.” His anguish was extreme. He joined the 18th Hussars, - and served with Sir H. Vivian’s brigade in the destructive and - successful charge made by that corps towards the close of the battle. - In this charge Lord Portarlington had a horse shot under him. No one - who knew this nobleman doubted his courage for a moment, but his - absence from duty on such an occasion necessitated his retirement from - the 23rd Dgns. in Sept., 1815. The Prince Regent showed much kind - feeling for Portarlington, and did his best to uphold the unfortunate - officer in the eyes of the world. Lord Portarlington purchased a - half-pay ensigncy in 86th Foot 21st Oct., 1821. Became lieut. on h. p. - 10th Sept., 1825. Capt. h. p. 9th Aug., 1831. This rank was a curious - anomaly, as his lordship’s name had been retained in the _Army List_ - as a “colonel” ever since Waterloo, and he was also awarded the - Waterloo medal. But the one misfortune of his life was ever before - him, and the remorse from knowing that he alone was the author of it - weighed upon him to such an extent that he took to dissipation, lost a - large fortune, and d. at a humble lodging in an obscure London slum, - 28th Dec., 1845. In early life he had served in the Pa., and was - present at the battle of Talavera. He d. unm. - -Footnote 2: - - Commanded the regt. at Waterloo in the absence of Lord Portarlington, - and was severely wounded early in the day.

Served in the Pa. - with the 11th Lt. Dgns., and specially distinguished himself at El - Bodon. On 7th Sept., 1812, when in command of a squadron of 11th - Dgns., he attacked and took prisoners a company of French artillery - near Valladolid.

On the death of Sir - Ralph Woodford, Bart., Governor of Trinidad, Alexander Woodford became - the head of this ancient family. His father was descended maternally - from the Brideokes, of classical memory, of whom Dr. Brideoke, the - “sometime” chaplain to James, the 4th Earl of Derby, in the reign of - Charles I., was a good specimen of the “fighting parson” of olden - days. This same Dr. Brideoke became Dean of Salisbury, and, by his - extraordinary presence of mind and address, saved the heroic Countess - of Derby, and her house at Latham, from being stormed by the - Cromwellian army. In like manner did his descendant, Alexander - Woodford, defend the farm of Hougomont in the early part of the - afternoon of Waterloo Day against the repeated and vigorous attacks of - the French.

Macdonell’s gallant - defence of Hougomont is a matter of history. More than once was the - place nearly taken by the French. “The French, however,” says Siborne, - in his graphic account of the battle of Waterloo, “succeeded in - forcing the gate; but the defenders betook themselves to the nearest - cover, whence they poured a fire upon the intruders, and then rushing - forward a struggle ensued which was distinguished by the most intrepid - courage on both sides. At length Lt.-col. Macdonell, Capt. Wyndham, - Ensigns Gooch and Hervey, and Sergt. Graham, of the Coldstream Guards, - by dint of great personal strength and exertions, combined with - extraordinary bravery and perseverance, succeeded in closing the gate - against their intruders.” The struggle for the possession of Hougomont - went on the whole day until the French retreat set in late in the - evening.

War the British Army was reduced to a peace - footing. The 3rd Batt. of the 14th Foot survived this general - reduction until the spring of 1815, when the dreaded order for its - disbanding arrived. Before this became an accomplished fact the escape - of Napoleon from Elba, and the consequent war with France, put a stop - to further reductions. The 3rd Batt. 14th was ordered to Belgium. - Being composed chiefly of very young recruits, the 14th were ordered - to Antwerp to join the garrison there, but through their colonel’s - personal application to Gen. Lord Hill, this order was countermanded - by Wellington himself, who inspected the regt. from the window of his - hotel at Brussels. “They are a very pretty little battalion,” said he - to Lord Hill; “tell them they may join the grand division as they - wish.” And so it came to pass that the “peasants,” as the battalion of - _young bucks_ were waggishly styled, took part in the “combat of - giants.” - -Footnote 1: - - Youngest son of the Rev. Thomas Holmes Tidy, chaplain to H.M. 26th - Foot, and afterwards rector of Red Marshall, co. Durham, by Henrietta - Augusta, dau. of the Rev. Wm. Skelly, by Lady Betty Gordon, dau. of - Alexander, Duke of Gordon. If “fighting blood” is hereditary, then - must “Frank Tidy,” as he was always called, have had a good share, for - he was maternally descended from Charles Mordaunt, the “fighting” Earl - of Peterborough, and had for his uncle the gallant Francis Skelly, - maj. in the 71st Highlanders, who gained renown at the siege of - Seringapatam. Joined the 43rd Regt. in Ireland as a volunteer at the - age of 16, and was soon gazetted an ensign. When serving with his - regt. in the West Indies “a mortality of from ten to thirteen men a - day reduced the 43rd to 96 rank and file, and Guadaloupe being - disputed inch by inch, the 43rd, at the time of its capture at - Berville, did not contain more than two officers and twenty men fit - for duty.” Tidy was confined for 15 months on board a hulk, subject to - the tyranny and cruelty of Victor Hughes, thence sent to France, and - eventually allowed to return to England on parole. Appointed adjt. of - the 43rd. Promoted capt. 1st West India Regt. 1798; in 1799 exchanged - to the Royal Scots. A.D.C. to Sir George Beckwith in the West Indies. - Maj. 8th W.I.

III. for having given us the Keppels 200 years - ago. It was this monarch who brought over Arnold Joost Van Keppel - (descended from Walter Van Keppel, Lord of Keppel, 1179) as a page in - 1688, and who raised him from one high post to another until he became - Earl of Albemarle, a Knight of the Garter, and gen. of the Dutch - forces in 1702. This nobleman fought under Marlborough in the wars of - Queen Anne, and our last Stuart monarch stood sponsor to Lord - Albemarle’s eldest son, who succeeded his father as William Anne 2nd - Earl—a general officer and British ambassador to Paris. The two eldest - sons of the 2nd earl were equally distinguished in their respective - professions—the army and navy. Viscount Bury was A.D.C. to the Duke of - Cumberland at Fontenoy and Culloden. He subsequently attained the rank - of lt.-gen. and was com.-in-chf. at the reduction of the Havannah, - which brought him much renown. His brother Augustus became famous as - Adm. Keppel, and for his eminent services was created Visct. Keppel, - of Elvedon, Suffolk (extinct). Gen. Visct. Bury succeeded as 3rd Earl, - and it was his grandson, the sixth earl, who joined the 3rd Batt. 14th - Foot six weeks before Waterloo. The following Waterloo anecdote is - given by Mrs. Ward in her memoir of Col. Tidy (already referred to), - and is corroborated by Lord Albemarle himself in his interesting - autobiography published in 1876:— - - “Mr. Keppel was sitting on a drum just in front of my father’s mare - when she was shot—he was even stroking the poor thing’s face at the - time that the ball struck her down, broke the bit of the bridle and - knocked him head over heels, drum and all. The animal plunging in her - agony, threw the square into great confusion, and her misery was - speedily put an end to by the soldiers’ bayonets.” On the 25th May, - 1820, Ensign Keppel (then in 22nd Foot) was promoted lieut. Exchanged - to 20th Foot, 1821; Capt. 62nd Foot, 1825; and in 1827 was promoted to - an unattached majority. Lt.-Col., 1841; Col., 1854; M.-Gen., 1858; - Lieut.-Gen., 1866; and Gen. 1874.

She was no stranger to a battle-field, and had - received a severe wound in Whitelock’s disastrous retreat from Buenos - Ayres (1807) at the time her husband was a sergt. in the 95th.

The 28th - might have been appropriately called “Prescott’s Own,” as the - Col.-in-Chf., Gen. Robert Prescott, had been closely associated with - this regt. for 50 years or longer, and was lt.-col. commanding for - about 12 years. From 1789 until his death in Dec., 1815, he was - col.-in-chf., and took the deepest interest in all that concerned his - old corps. He had more than one godson in the regt., whose fathers had - fought under him in America, whom he advanced in their military career - by his own personal interest. And the 28th were equally attached to - their old colonel, who had seen much service in America and the West - Indies, where he held high commands. Like many others, before and - since, who have filled responsible situations in countries where the - native or “barbarian” element is largely represented, Gen. Prescott - was fully imbued with the idea of his own great importance. An amusing - instance of this is found in an order issued by him when commanding - the troops in Canada:— - - LIEUT.-GENERAL PRESCOTT’S ORDERS. - - “St. Pierres, 16th _June_, 1794. - - “Whereas Vice-Adm. Sir John Jervis has given orders, I am told, - frequently here on shore, and particularly by note dated off Point - Petre, June 11th, 1794, which must have arisen from great ignorance or - great presumption and arrogance. - - “If from ignorance, poor man! he is to be pitied, but if from - presumption and arrogance, he is to be checked. - - “It is, therefore, Lt.-General Prescott’s orders that in future no - attention whatever is to be given to such notes or orders, and his - signature to such to be as little regarded as that of John Oakes or - Peter Styles.” - - A martinet he lived and a martinet he died. His last whisper on his - death-bed was an inquiry as to whether there was a Hessian sentry at - his door. Although he did not die in harness the veteran “Slasher” - died under the colours of the 28th, as on the death of the late Robert - Prescott (grandson of the above) the old colours of the 28th were - found among his effects and returned to the regt. They had doubtless - been worked by the fair fingers of the old general’s wife. - -Footnote 1: - - Succeeded to the command of the 8th Brigade after Quatre Bras. - Lt.-Col. 56th Regt. 9th May, 1816.

Sir Richard Lluellyn, K.C.B., Col.-in-Chf. 39th Regt. - Entered the army with temporary rank as capt. in the 52nd, and served - in the Mediterranean. In 1801 was placed on h. p. but when the war - recommenced he re-entered the army and purchased a company in the 28th - Foot in 1805. Fought at Busaco and Albuera, and other actions in the - Pa.

Hamilton of this regt., had a very - valuable charger at Waterloo, and knowing that if it was shot in the - battle he would only get the Government price of £20 for another - charger, he exchanged horses, before going into action at Quatre Bras, - with his steady old quartermaster, who, being a non-combatant, was to - remain in the rear. The quartermaster’s horse was what is called a - “safe convenience,” but the colonel’s charger was very high-spirited - and fresh. Unaccustomed to the quietude of his position in the rear of - the army, he fretted and fumed at being kept back from the excitement - going on in front. His rider had a bad time of it, and was a source of - much amusement to the idlers and “non-effectives” in the rearward.

Macara at Quatre Bras was inexpressibly sad. “He - was wounded about the middle of the engagement, and was in the act of - being carried off the field by four of his men, when a party of French - unexpectedly surrounded and made them prisoners. Perceiving by the - colonel’s decorations that he was an officer of rank they immediately - cut him down with his attendants.” His relations obtained Macara’s - Waterloo medal, which was for long in the Tancred Collection. A - touching poem to Robert Macara’s memory is to be found in the - _Waterloo Memoirs_; the following are the last three verses of a pæan - of praise sung by the Goddess of Fame:— - - “Here the Goddess ceased her lay; - Weak, her wings refused to fly; - Faint, her voice forbore to say - How Macara dared to die. - - “Be it, then, to friendship giv’n - Such a warrior’s name to save, - While ’tis borne on breeze of heav’n - That he found a soldier’s grave. - - “By unequal hosts oppos’d, - Still he proved his valour true; - For his bright career was clos’d - On the plains of Waterloo!” - -Footnote 2: - - Succeeded to the command after Macara’s death. C.B. for Waterloo. Had - served in the Pa., and received the gold medal and one clasp for - Fuentes d’Onor and Salamanca. A.D.C. to George IV., 1825. H. p. - unattached list, 1825; maj.-gen., 1837.

He had m., 11th April, 1818, Eliza., dau. of J. - Macnabb, of Arthurstone, Perth. - -Footnote 3: - - In Capt. George Jones’s _Waterloo Memoirs_ is to be found an - interesting letter regarding Major Menzies of the 42nd, who was - dangerously wounded at Quatre Bras. The major’s name is omitted in - this letter:—“On the 16th June, Major ——, of the 42nd, preferring to - fight on foot, in front of his men, had given his horse to hold to a - little drummer-boy. After severe fighting he fell wounded near a brave - private, Donald Mackintosh. The drummer left the horse to assist his - friend Donald. A French lancer attempted to seize the horse, on which - the prostrate Donald exclaimed, ‘Hoot man, ye mauna tak that beast, ’t - belangs to our captain here!’ The lancer, little heeding, seized the - horse. Donald, with a last expiring effort, loaded his musket and shot - the lancer dead. A French cavalry officer, seeing the major bestirring - himself, rode up and attempted to dispatch him with his sword. As he - stooped from his saddle, the major seized his leg, and managed to pull - him off his horse upon him. Another lancer, observing this struggle, - galloped up and tried to spear the major and relieve his officer; but - the former, by a sudden jerk and desperate exertion, placed the French - officer uppermost, who received the mortal thrust below his cuirass - and continued lying upon the major’s body for near ten minutes, sword - in hand. A pause in the battle permitted some men of the 42nd to carry - their officer into the square of the 92nd, where he was found to have - received sixteen wounds.” Acted as major after Sir R. Macara’s death - at Quatre Bras until wounded himself. Promoted maj. 18th June, 1815. - Left the regt. in 1828. D. in 1854.

He was a soldier from his youth, and obtained his - first commission of cornet at the early age of fifteen, in 1792. In - 1794 he served under the Duke of York; in 1795 embarked for the West - Indies; in 1796 assisted at the capture of St. Lucia; and, in 1801, - fought with distinction in Egypt. Subsequently he took part in the Pa. - campaigns, in command of the 1st Batt. of the 44th. At Waterloo he - bravely led on the 2nd Batt. of the same gallant regiment, and was - left for dead on that bloody field, having received several severe - wounds in the head and thigh. Owing to the attachment of a faithful - non-commissioned officer, Sergeant Ryan, who brought his wounded and - insensible commander under the care of skilful medical treatment, he - slowly recovered, and with his devoted follower returned home. A - chivalric soldier, an honourable and most amiable gentleman, General - Hamerton is deeply lamented by all who came within the influence of - his high and endearing qualities.” He m.

The Frenchman then endeavoured - to seize the standard, but the brave Christie, notwithstanding the - agony of his wound, with a presence of mind almost unequalled, flung - himself upon it—not to save himself, but to preserve the honour of his - regiment. As the colour fluttered in its fall, the Frenchman tore off - a portion of the silk with the point of his lance; but he was not - permitted to bear the fragment beyond the ranks.

Out of the army, 1836. - -Footnote 19: - - H. p. 1824. D. at Lincoln, 1857. - -Footnote 20: - - One of the greatest heroes of the Par. War. Led the Forlorn Hope on - two successive occasions during the siege of Badajoz, in 1811, when - Fort San Christoval was assaulted by the British. The second assault, - on the night of 9th June, is graphically described in _Reminiscences - of a Subaltern_:—“At ten o’clock at night, 200 men moved forward to - the assault, Dyas leading the advance. He made a circuit until he came - exactly opposite to the breach instead of entering the ditch as - before; a sheep-path, which he remembered in the evening while he and - Major MacGeechy made their observations, served to guide them to the - part of the glacis in front of the breach. Arrived at this spot, the - detachment descended the ditch, and found themselves at the foot of - the breach; but here an unlooked-for event stopped their further - progress, and would have been in itself sufficient to have caused the - failure of the attack. The ladders were entrusted to a party composed - of a foreign corps in our pay, called ‘the Chasseurs Britanniques’; - these men, the moment they reached the glacis, glad to rid themselves - of their load, flung the ladders into the ditch, instead of sliding - them between the palisadoes; they fell across them, and so stuck fast, - and being made of heavy green wood, it was next to impossible to - _move_, much less place them upright against the breach, and almost - all the storming party were massacred in the attempt. Placed in a - situation so frightful, it required a man of the most determined - character to continue the attack. Every officer of the detachment had - fallen, Major MacGeechy one of the first; and at this moment Dyas and - about five-and-twenty men were all that remained of the 200. - Undismayed by these circumstances, the soldiers persevered, and Dyas, - although wounded and bleeding, succeeded in disentangling one ladder, - and placing it against what was considered to be the breach, it was - speedily mounted, but upon arriving at the top of the ladder, instead - of the _breach_, it was found to be a _stone wall_ that had been - constructed in the night, and which completely cut off all - communication between the ditch and the bastion, so that when the men - reached the top of this wall, they were, in effect, as far from the - breach as if they had been in their own batteries. From this faithful - detail it is evident that the soldiers did as much as possible to - ensure success, and that failure was owing to a combination of - untoward circumstances over which the troops had no control. Nineteen - men were all that escaped.” The gallantry of Ensign Joseph Dyas was - proclaimed to the world in Wellington’s account of the two assaults of - San Christoval, but for all that a grateful War Office allowed him to - remain a subaltern for ten years longer! - - “I know a man of whom ’tis truly said - He bravely twice a storming party led, - And volunteered both times; now here’s the rub, - The gallant fellow still remains a sub.” - - In Dec. 1820, owing to the representations of Col. Gurwood and Sir H. - Torrens, the Duke of York promoted Dyas a capt. in the 2nd Ceylon - Regt., but impaired health obliged him to retire on h. p. 9th Aug., - 1821.

Cameron, a nephew - of Sir Alan Cameron, the col.-in-chf.; but which of the _four_ - lieutenants of this name cannot now be traced.

Vet. Batt. D. 1826. - -Footnote 6: - - An interesting memoir of this gallant soldier appeared in the _United - Service Journal_ for 1837. He was a native of Dumfriesshire, where his - father had a small property of his own. In 1805 he joined the 52nd - L.I. as an ensign, and in the year following was appointed to a - lieutenancy in the Rifle Brigade (as the old 95th is now styled). As a - lieut. he had the good fortune to command one of the four companies of - the Rifles which, under Sir S. Beckwith, at the Pass of Barba del - Puerco, on 19th March, 1810, so gallantly repulsed 600 chosen French - troops who attempted to surprise them at midnight. I extract the - following from the above memoir:—“On the 19th Jan., 1812, he was one - of the officers who volunteered and led the stormers at the taking of - Ciudad Rodrigo, and was fortunate enough to come out unscathed, - although one of the first to enter that deadly pass. At the storming - of Badajoz on the 6th April, 1812, his name again stood on the list of - volunteers for the Forlorn Hope, but as it was claimed by a senior - officer of the division, he was obliged to limit his expectations to - one of the posts of honour with the storming party. Sir Andrew - Barnard, however, who commanded the Light Division, knowing how - peculiarly well qualified he was for desperate enterprise, assigned - him a post in front of the Forlorn Hope, in the command of a party - carrying ropes prepared with nooses to throw over the sword-blades - which formed the chevaux-de-frise, in the hope of being able to - displace it by dragging it down the breach, but Johnstone and all his - party were stricken down before they got within throwing distance. His - appearance next morning is thus described by a brother officer, Capt. - Kincaid, in _Random Shots from a Rifleman_, page 287:—‘The first tent - that I entered was Johnstone’s. With his shattered arm bandaged, he - was lying fast asleep, and coupling his appearance with the daring - duty he had been called on to perform but a few hours before in front - of the Forlorn Hope, I thought that I had never set my eyes upon a - nobler picture of a soldier! His whole appearance, even in sleep, - showed exactly as it had been in the execution of that duty; his - splendid figure was so disposed as if he was taking the first step in - the breach—his eyebrows were elevated—his nostrils still distended, - and altogether he looked as if he would clutch the castle in his - remaining hand! No one could have seen him at that moment without - saying—There lies a hero!’” Johnstone was wounded both at Quatre Bras - and Waterloo. Promoted maj. 24th Dec., 1829. Quitted the service in - 1831. Was Colonial Sec. at Cape of Good Hope, and d. at sea 6th April, - 1836. - -Footnote 7: - - H. p. 21st May, 1818. - -Footnote 8: - - Capt. 5th Aug., 1824. H. p. 28th May, 1829.

To this exchange, which - preceded the battle of Waterloo, may justly be ascribed much of the - success of that memorable day.” Another instance of Frazer’s firmness - of character is exhibited in the speedy way in which he made the - Prussians, two days after Waterloo, surrender all the French guns - which had been captured by the British, and which the rapacious - Prussians had annexed, and “regularly parked with Prussian sentries.” - Frazer’s interesting letters from the Pa. and the Netherlands were - published in 1859.

His mother was Ann Atkinson, one of the - daughters of Henry Atkinson, town clerk of Ripon. The way W. Bell - became an artilleryman was as follows:—“Old Col. Quist of the R.A., - head of the riding establishment (who belonged to a Dutch family), - came to Ripon to buy horses when Bell was a boy in his teens, and - happening to meet the youth in Ripon society, he took a fancy to him.” - Col. Quist used his interest in obtaining for Bell a nomination to a - cadetship at Woolwich Academy. In due course Bell obtained a - commission in the R.A., and soon evinced that he had a talent for “the - music of war.” He served in the West Indies from 1807–1810, and was - present at the capture of several of the West Indian islands. Served - in the Pa. from July, 1813, to 1814, and was present at five general - actions. Slightly wounded at Toulouse. His duties were very onerous - both at Quatre Bras and Waterloo, where he was employed in conveying - instructions and orders to officers commanding batteries in all parts - of the field. He had the narrowest escape of being crushed to death, - in after life, that ever befell anyone. “He fell from his horse in - front of a battery of R.H.A. at Norwich (or Ipswich), and the battery - going over him at a gallop, the drag-shoe of one of the guns knocked - his ear off!” Sir W. Bell resided during the latter part of his life - at Ripon, and d. there, unm., 28th March, 1873. Buried at Tanfield. - M.I. (The above is from information supplied by the late Gen.

Robe, K. 28 June, 1808 │ - -Footnote 1: - - This officer’s name has been immortalised by Napier in his _Peninsular - War_. He came of a Scottish family, and was the eldest of three sons - of a retired naval officer who resided in Edinburgh. He was the pride - and glory of the branch of the army to which he belonged, and the - beau-ideal of what a Horse Artilleryman should be. He served with - great credit in Maj. Bull’s troop of R.H.A., in the Pa., from 1811 to - 1813. It was in the campaign of 1811 that he performed the brilliant - action which Napier’s facile pen has so strikingly illustrated. This - happened on 5th May, 1811, when, the British cavalry out-guards being - far outnumbered near Fuentes d’Onor, were driven in upon their - supports, and Capt. Ramsay found himself cut off. It is a matter of - history how Ramsay, at the head of his battery, charged like a - whirlwind through the French squadrons who intervened between his - handful of men and the British troops, and rejoined the latter in - safety when given up for lost. And at the battle of Vittoria, Ramsay - again distinguished himself, but, by an unfortunate act of - disobedience to Wellington’s orders, he incurred the Iron Duke’s iron - displeasure. The story has been told as follows by a well-known - author, and differs somewhat from the account given by Col. Duncan in - his _History of the Royal Artillery_:—“I remember hearing a striking - instance of what, perhaps, might be called severe justice, which he - exercised on a young and distinguished officer of artillery in Spain; - and though one cannot help pitying the case of the gallant young - fellow who was the sacrifice, yet the question of strict duty, to the - very word, was set at rest for ever under the Duke’s command, and it - saved much after trouble, by making every officer satisfied, however - fiery his courage or tender his sense of being suspected of the white - feather, that implicit obedience was the course he must pursue. The - case was this: The army was going into action. The Duke posted an - officer, with his six guns, at a certain point, telling him to remain - there until he had orders from him. Away went the rest of the army, - and the officer was left doing nothing at all, which he didn’t like; - for he was one of those high-blooded gentlemen who are never so happy - as when they are making other people miserable, and he was longing for - the head of a French column to be hammering away at. In half an hour - or so he heard the distant sound of action, and it approached nearer - and nearer, until he heard it close beside him; and he wondered rather - that he was not invited to take a share in it, when, pat to his - thought, up came an aide-de-camp at full speed, telling him that Gen. - Somebody ordered him to bring up his guns. The officer asked, ‘Did not - the order come from Lord Wellington?’ The aide-de-camp said ‘No,’ but - from the gen., whoever he was. The officer explained that he was - placed there by Lord Wellington, under command not to move unless by - an order from himself. The aide-de-camp stated that the general’s - entire brigade was being driven in, and must be annihilated without - the aid of the guns, and asked, ‘Would he let a whole brigade be - slaughtered?’ in a tone which wounded the young soldier’s pride, - savouring, as he thought it did, of an imputation on his courage. He - immediately ordered his guns to move, and joined battle with the - general; but while he was away an aide-de-camp from Lord Wellington - rode up to where the guns had been posted, and, of course, no gun was - to be had for the service which Lord Wellington required. Well, the - French were repulsed, as it happened; but the want of those six guns - seriously marred a pre-concerted movement of the Duke’s, and the - officer in command of them was immediately put in arrest. Almost every - general officer in the army endeavoured to get this sentence revoked, - lamenting the fate of a gallant fellow being sent away for a slight - error in judgment while the army was in full action; but Lord - Wellington was inexorable, saying he must make an example to secure - himself in the perfect obedience of officers to their orders, and it - had the effect.”—Mr. Lover’s _Handy Andy_. To a man of Norman Ramsay’s - highly honourable and sensitive nature the circumstances of his - arrest, coupled with the omission of his name from the Vittoria - despatches, and the loss of a brevet he had well earned, may be said - to have inflicted a wound which neither time nor subsequent honours - could heal. Three weeks after his arrest he was restored to the - command of his battery, to the great joy of the whole army in Spain, - and after the battle of the Bidassoa he was promoted bt. maj. At - Waterloo he commanded the H Troop R.H.A., and his forward gallantry in - that battle attracted the fatal bullet which put an end to his noble - life. He was buried on the field by his great friend Sir Augustus - Frazer, during a momentary lull in the battle, but three weeks later - was disinterred and his body sent to Edinburgh, as the only - consolation to his aged father, half-demented with grief, who was - fated to lose his three gallant sons in the short space of eight - months. Norman Ramsay m., 14th June, 1808, Mary Emilia, eldest dau. of - Lt.-Gen. MacLeod, of Macleod. Sir Augustus Frazer erected a monument - to Ramsay’s memory on the field of Waterloo.

I belonged to your troop at that time, and you gave -me orders to charge him, which I did, and took it from him. When I -stated it to him this day he wants to know the particulars about it, and -me to rite to you for you to state to him how it was.

This daring - act won the admiration of the whole British Army.

He was a native of Kilmarnock. D. at - Davyhulme, near Manchester, 17th March, 1846. The _Edinburgh - Advertiser_ for 21st June, 1816, has the following:— - - “Extract of a letter from Sergt. Ewart, of the Scots Greys, dated - Rouen, 16th Aug., 1815:— - - “The enemy began forming their line of battle about nine in the - morning of the 18th. They came down to the left, where they were - received by our brave Highlanders. No men could ever behave better; - our brigade of cavalry covered them. Owing to a column of foreign - troops giving way, our brigade was forced to advance to the support of - our brave fellows, and which we certainly did in style; we charged - through two of their columns, each about 500. It was in the first - charge I took the Eagle from the enemy; he and I had a hard contest - for it; he thrust for my groin—I parried it off, and I cut him through - the head; after which I was attacked by one of their Lancers, who - threw his lance at me, but missed the mark by my throwing it off with - my sword by my right side; then I cut him from the chin upwards, which - cut went through his teeth. Next I was attacked by a foot soldier, - who, after firing at me, charged me with his bayonet; but he very soon - lost the combat, for I parried it, and cut him down through the head; - so that finished the contest for the Eagle. After which I presumed to - follow my comrades, Eagle and all, but was stopped by the General - saying to me, ‘You brave fellow, take that to the rear; you have done - enough until you get quit of it,’ which I was obliged to do, but with - great reluctance. I retired to a height, and stood there for upwards - of an hour, which gave me a general view of the field, but I cannot - express the sight I beheld; the bodies of my brave comrades were lying - so thick upon the field that it was scarcely possible to pass, and - horses innumerable. I took the Eagle into Brussels, amidst the - acclamation of thousands of the spectators that saw it.” - - On 18th June, 1816, Ensign Ewart, and other Waterloo officers, were - entertained at a public banquet in Edinburgh. “Nearly 400 noblemen and - gentlemen sat down to an elegant dinner in the Assembly Rooms, the Rt. - Hon. Wm. Arbuthnot, Lord Provost of the city, in the chair. After - several toasts had been given and duly honoured, Sir Walter (then Mr.) - Scott proposed a bumper to the health of Ensign Ewart, late of the - Scots Greys, whose bravery was conspicuous where he took a French - Eagle, and killed with his own hand three of Napoleon’s guard. The - toast was drank with great acclamation, and a general expectation - prevailed that Ensign Ewart, who was present, would address the - company. After a short pause, the Lord Provost rose, and, at the - request of Mr. Ewart, stated how much he felt honoured by this mark of - the company’s approbation, but that he would much rather fight the - battle over again and take another Eagle, than make a speech.” - - ------------------ - - 6TH DRAGOONS. - - F.

He was -commissioned as a quartermaster the 31st Aug., 1815, and retd. with the -rank of capt. in Dec., 1855. Living 1876. The following description of -the square of the Grenadier Guards during the afternoon of Waterloo day -is by Capt. Gronow of that regt., and is certainly worthy of -remembrance, exhibiting as it does the desperate heroism of the British -resistance:— - -“During the battle our squares presented a shocking sight. Inside we -were nearly suffocated by the smoke and smell from burnt cartridges. It -was impossible to move a yard without treading upon a wounded comrade, -or upon the bodies of the dead; and the loud groans of the wounded and -dying were most appalling. - -“At four o’clock our square was a perfect hospital being full of dead, -dying, and mutilated soldiers. The charges of cavalry were in appearance -very formidable, but in reality a great relief, as the artillery could -no longer fire on us; the very earth shook under the enormous mass of -men and horses. I shall never forget the strange noise our bullets made -against the breast-plates of Kellerman’s and Millhaud’s cuirassiers, six -or seven thousand in number, who attacked us with great fury. I can only -compare it, with a somewhat homely simile, to the noise of a violent -hailstorm beating against panes of glass. - -“The artillery did great execution; but our musketry did not at first -seem to kill many men, though it brought down a large number of horses, -and created indescribable confusion. The horses of the first rank of -cuirassiers, in spite of all the efforts of their riders, came to a -standstill, shaking and covered with foam, at about twenty yards’ -distance from our squares, and generally resisted all attempts to force -them to charge the line of serried steel. On one occasion two gallant -French officers forced their way into a gap momentarily created by the -discharge of artillery; one was killed by Stables, the other by Adair. -Nothing could be more gallant than the behaviour of those veterans, many -of whom had distinguished themselves on half the battle-fields of -Europe. - -“In the midst of our terrible fire, their officers were seen as if on -parade, keeping order in their ranks, and encouraging them. Unable to -renew the charge, but unwilling to retreat, they brandished their swords -with loud cries of ‘Vive l’Empereur!’ and allowed themselves to be mowed -down by hundreds rather than yield. Our men, who shot them down, could -not help admiring the gallant bearing and heroic resignation of their -enemies.” - - Sergt. Robt. Steele. - -Appointed adjt. 66th Foot 23rd March, 1826.

This veteran and gallant officer was -formerly of the 14th or Buckinghamshire Regt. of Foot, and had seen very -lengthened service in the army, having served in the campaign of 1815, -including the battle of Waterloo and the storming of Cambray; in 1817, -in the East Indies, he was present at the siege of Hattrass, and in the -campaign of 1817–18, in the Deccan; also at the siege and storming of -Bhurtpore, in 1825–26. With the medal so well earned, he was one of the -officers receiving rewards for distinguished service; moreover, as -having originated the measure by which was accorded to meritorious -quartermasters of long service the nominal rank of captain, several of -whom, many years since, presented him with a handsome testimonial, -expressive of their obligation, and of his efficient aid.” - -On Waterloo day, Sergt. Goddard was with an advanced party of -skirmishers of the 14th, and about four o’clock the reflux wave of some -French cuirassiers passed through them. They were, of course, fired at -by the 14th skirmishers, and several bit the dust. One poor wounded -Frenchman was thrown from his horse, and a comrade nobly returned and -offered the soldier the help of his stirrup. An active light infantry -man of the 14th, Whitney by name, who had shot one cuirassier, having -reloaded, was about to fire at the mounted Frenchman, who was then -rescuing his comrade, when Goddard interfered and said, “No, Whitney, -don’t fire; let him off, he is a noble fellow.” (Communicated by a -friend of Capt. Goddard.) - - ------------------ - - 23RD REGIMENT OF FOOT. - - Charles Grant. - -Severely wounded at Quatre Bras whilst serving in the ranks.

His prowess when - charging with the Life Guards at Waterloo was exemplified by the - number of cuirassiers he slew. The little that is known of his early - life, and the account of his death at Waterloo, are given in his - biography by Lt.-Col. Knollys, who, out of very scanty material, has - compiled a very interesting little book. Shaw was born at Woolaston, - co. Notts, in 1789, and enlisted 15th Oct., 1807. - -Footnote 2: - - Known in the regt. as “Marquis of Granby,” from the fact of his having - a bald head. Had his horse shot under him in one of the charges at - Waterloo, and was thrown. As he got up, minus his helmet, which had - fallen off, a cuirassier rode at him and attempted to cut him down. - Godley managed to kill his assailant, and mounting the Frenchman’s - horse, rode back to his regt. who welcomed him with shouts of “Well - done, Marquis of Granby!” Discharged in 1824. D. in 1831. M.I. St. - John’s Wood Cemetery. - -Footnote 3: - - Immediately after the first charge of his regt. at Waterloo, when the - French cavalry were being pursued by ours, Johnson pursued three - cuirassiers who, with a view of escaping, turned down a narrow lane. - “There proved to be no thoroughfare at the end of the road, when - Johnson, though alone, attacked the three, and, after a slight - resistance, they surrendered themselves prisoners.” - - ------------------ - - 1ST DRAGOON GUARDS. - - [1] Troop Sergt.-Maj.

D., at - Kirkcaldy, in Dec., 1825. - -Footnote 2: - - “Sergeant Weir of the Scots Greys was pay-sergt. of his troop, and as - such might have been excused serving in action, and perhaps he should - not have been forward; but, on such a day as Waterloo, he requested to - be allowed to charge with the regt. In one of the charges he fell - mortally wounded, and was left on the field. Corporal Scott of the - same regt. (who lost a leg) asserts that when the field was searched - for the wounded and slain, the body of Sergt. Weir was found with his - name written on his forehead by his own hand, dipped in his own blood. - This, his comrade said, he was supposed to have done that his body - might be found and known, and that it might not be imagined he had - disappeared with the money of the troop. John Weir joined the Greys - about 1798, and was a native of Mauchline, Ayrshire.”—Copied from a - MS. in possession of the regt., and communicated by Capt. G.

Marshall, while sabreing a cuirassier on his - right, had his bridle-arm broken by a stroke from his enemy on his - left, and had not proceeded much further when he was beset by another - crowd of French cavalry and hurled from his horse by a lance which - penetrated his side. While he was falling he received a heavy blow - across the body, and another which broke his right thigh. He lay - unconscious except when goaded into sensibility by the hoofs of the - enemy’s horses passing over his mangled body. The ground afterwards - becoming somewhat clear he espied a horse without any rider, towards - which he crawled, and was about to mount, when a French trooper - galloping up cut him down in the midst of his hopes, inflicting - several severe wounds on his body. This part of the field being again - occupied by the French, a French artilleryman made Marshall’s body a - resting-place for his foot while he rammed his gun. For two days and - three nights Marshall remained on the field with 19 lance and sabre - wounds. On the regt. returning home he was discharged with 2s. per - day. Resided at Belfast, where he was much respected. D. there, 28th - Sept., 1825.”—_Scots’ Magazine._ - -Footnote 2: - - Born at Enniskillen 14th March, 1792.

Being a clever and well-educated man, he was able to -compile a very interesting little book called _A Voice from Waterloo_, -which held its own among the many accounts of the great battle. Besides -this he formed a Waterloo Museum, which has always been a great -attraction to visitors. In 1875, when the Editor was at Waterloo, the -Museum was kept by a niece of the late sergt.-maj., who d. 1st July, -1849, and was bd. in the orchard of Hougomont, by the side of Capt. -Blackwood, who fell in the battle. - - ------------------ - - 16TH LIGHT DRAGOONS. - - Sergt.-Maj.

In the charge at Waterloo he made a cut -at the head of one of the French cuirassiers, which had no other effect -on the Frenchman than to induce him to cry out, in derision, “Ha! ha!” -and to return a severe blow at the sergt., which was admirably parried, -and then Taylor thrust his sabre into the mouth of the cuirassier, who -immediately fell, and the conqueror cried, “Ha! ha!” - - ------------------ - - COLDSTREAM GUARDS. - - Sergt. John Graham, Light Company, 2nd Batt. - -Distinguished himself in the defence of Hougomont, and by his great -personal strength was of great assistance in helping to close the -courtyard gate against the French. “At a later period of the day, when -in the ranks along the garden wall facing the wood, and when the -struggle was most severe in that quarter, he asked Lt.-Col. Macdonell’s -permission to fall out. The colonel, knowing the character of the man, -expressed his surprise at the request made at such a moment. Graham -explained that his brother lay wounded in one of the buildings then on -fire; that he wished to remove him to a place of safety, and that he -would then lose no time in rejoining the ranks. The request was granted; -Graham succeeded in snatching his brother from the terrible fate which -menaced him, laid him in a ditch in rear of the enclosure, and true to -his word, was again at his post.”—Col.

Dansey along the Charleroi road, to the front of the centre -of the Anglo-allied line, and came into action with rockets near the -farm of La Haye Sainte, leaving its two guns in the rear under Lt. -Wright. Capt. Dansey very soon received a severe wound which obliged him -to retire; and the party, after firing a few rockets, fell back a little -to where its horses were standing. It was then commanded by a sergeant -(Daniel Dunnett), who, on perceiving the advance of the nearest French -column towards the farm, dismounted his men as coolly and deliberately -as if exercising on Woolwich Common, though without any support -whatever, laid rockets on the ground, and discharged them in succession -into the mass, every one of them appearing to take effect. The advance -of the column was checked, and was not resumed until Dunnett, having -expended all his rockets, retired with his party to rejoin the guns in -rear.” - - - - - APPENDIX. - - - STAFF. - -Col. C.H. Churchill was son of Maj.-Gen. Horace Churchill, and a -descendant of the Earl of Orford. In a letter to his father from “Le -Cateau, 24th June, 1815,” Churchill thus graphically describes -Napoleon’s final effort at Waterloo:— - -“It was about four o’clock. The enemy had made great efforts, but our -troops foiled them everywhere. We could not follow him; he had retired -rather than be beaten back. His position was very strong. About six -o’clock we perceived formation columns, cavalry and infantry, formed in -a great mass—the enemy’s artillery was brought to a more forward -position—and again he began to cannonade us. He opened a fire, the most -tremendous ever known, I believe, in the annals of war—250 pieces, very -close, throwing shells and round shot, grape, and every instrument of -destruction. It is really not exaggeration to say we could not ride -quick over the ground for the bodies of men and horses. Under cover of -this cannonade advanced Bonaparte at the head of his Imperial Guards; -cavalry in a column on the left flank, and the Grenadiers of the Guard -on their right flank. They advanced most steadily up to our line in one -great mass. They halted and commenced firing. Our troops were literally -mowed down. The fire was so great nothing could stand.” The writer then -goes on to describe how he had two horses killed under him, and a third -disabled by a shot in the knee before the advancing French columns were -“licked back.” “The Prussians,” continues Churchill, “now came upon the -enemy’s flank, and this obliged them to hurry their retreat.” - - ------------------ - -SIR DE LACY EVANS. - -In Kensal Green Cemetery is a handsome altar monument to the memory of -Sir De Lacy Evans, his wife, and his brother, Maj.-Gen. Richard Evans, -C.B., Col. of the Madras Grenadier Regt. The epitaph to Sir De Lacy and -Lady Evans is as follows:— - - “Beneath this monument lie the remains of - JOSETTE, Lady EVANS, the beloved and deeply mourned wife of - Gen. Sir DE LACY EVANS. - Born 1787. Died 1861. - - Here, too, lie the remains of Gen. Sir DE LACY EVANS, G.C.B., - Col. of the 21st Rl. N. Brit Fusiliers. - Born 1787. Died 1870. - He commenced his career in India. - Fought under Wellington in the Peninsula and South of France. - Served with distinction in America. - Was engaged at Quatre Bras and Waterloo. - Commanded with marked ability the British Legion in the service of - Spain. - And in old age nobly led the 2nd British Division in the Crimea. - During 30 years he was M.P. for the City of Westminster. - An enterprising and skilful commander. An accomplished politician. - His comrades mourn the chivalrous soldier, - And many friends affectionately cherish his memory.” - -Letter from Capt. (aftds. Lt.-Gen.) Alexander Macdonald, R.H.A., to Col. -Sir W. Robe, K.C.B., R.A., regarding the death of Lt. W. Robe, R.H.A., -at Waterloo. From a copy in the possession of Col. F.A. Whinyates, late -R.H.A.:— - - “Amiens, _7th August, 1815_. - -“MY DEAR SIR WILLIAM,—I should have written to you long ere this had not -a wound, which deprived me of the use of my arm, prevented me. As to the -fall of your son, and my esteemed friend, I can only say that few young -men have left this life more sincerely regretted, and his exertions on -the 18th will ever endear his memory to all who witnessed his noble -conduct on that day. Major Ramsay’s last words to me were as follows: -‘Did you ever witness such noble conduct as that of Brereton and Robe?’ -In short, it is a most painful task to relate the history of a man whose -fall I sincerely lament, and I cannot without tears of sorrow think of -your son, and my esteemed friend Major Ramsay. About five o’clock on the -18th your son received a mortal wound, and about the same time the -following day he died at the village of Waterloo, after twice having -taken leave of me in the most friendly and affectionate manner. I was -too ill to ask him any questions; indeed, I was so distressed when I saw -him at his last moments, that I could only shake him by the hand, and in -the course of a few minutes he expired. His remains were interred in a -beautiful spot of ground in the village of Waterloo, where I intend to -raise a monument to his memory.—Yours most truly, - - “A. MCDONALD.” - - ------------------ - - REMINISCENCES OF WATERLOO [? 1895]. - -“Our Paris correspondent states that a correspondent of the _Gaulois_ -gives an interesting account of a conversation with one of the very few -surviving spectators of the battle of Waterloo, a widow named Givron, -the hundredth anniversary of whose birth is about to be celebrated in -the little village of Viesville, Hainault. She relates that on the -morning of the day of the great battle she ran away from her parents and -made her way through the woods, being curious to see what was going on. -She was close to Hougomont when the place was attacked by the French -troops, and remained in hiding for hours, not daring to move. The -cannonade having diminished she ventured towards the farm, but fled -horror-stricken at the sight—the ground, as she expresses it, being like -red mud, so drenched was it with blood. She ran across the fields and -reached the Bois de Planchenoit, where she fell asleep, worn out by -fatigue and excitement. At dusk she was awakened by the noise of horses’ -hoofs, and saw a troop of cavalry, headed by a man of short stature -mounted on a curveting grey horse. He was riding slowly on as if in a -dream, looking straight ahead and paying no heed to what went on about -him. The girl learnt on the same evening from her relatives, when she -finally reached home, that the rider was Napoleon. Madame Givron is -remarkably active, and is particularly proud of her eyesight, which, she -declares, is as good as it was seventy-five years ago. When her daughter -Marceline, who, as she says, is only seventy-two, sits down to sew, her -mother threads the needles for her. The old lady has had seven children, -and her descendants number ninety-two.”—_Morning Post._ - - ------------------ - - A CENTENARIAN. - -Commissary-Gen. Downs writes to the _Army and Navy Gazette_ in July, -1891, as follows:— - -“Samuel Gibson—an inmate of the Metropolitan Asylum, Caterham—is now in -his 101st year. He enlisted about the year 1803 at Sanderage, county -Armagh, as a boy in the 27th Regt., his father being at that time a -private in the Monaghan militia. Young Gibson accompanied the -Inniskillings to the Peninsula and also served with the regt. at -Waterloo. He was discharged from the army soon after on a pension of one -shilling per diem, which he afterwards commuted, receiving besides, he -states, £74. He has been an inmate of Caterham Asylum for some years, -and although unable to leave his bed he still enjoys a pipe of tobacco, -which he indulges in frequently.” - - ------------------ - - INTERESTING SURVIVOR. - -“In the village of Rolvenden, in the Weald of Kent, there is living an -old woman named Moon, who was present at the battles of Quatre Bras and -Waterloo. Her father, a col.-sergt. of the 3rd batt. Rifle Brigade, -served throughout the Peninsular war, and took part in the battles of -Badajoz, Salamanca, and other conflicts. He died of wounds received at -Waterloo some months after the battle and before he had received his -pension. Mrs. Moon was born in the Peninsula, her mother doing work for -the forces when operating there. Though Mrs. Moon is now infirm, her -intellect is clear and her memory good.”—_Morning Post_, 27th March, -1899. - -NOTE BY THE EDITOR.—Mrs. Barbara Moon d. at Rolvenden in Oct., 1903. It -was stated in an obituary notice that she was four years old at the time -of the battle of Waterloo and rode in a waggon over the field on the -evening of 18th June, 1815. - - ------------------ - - THE LAST BRITISH EYE-WITNESS OF WATERLOO. - -Elizabeth Watkins, of Norwich, born 31st Jan., 1810, at Beaminster, near -Bridport. Her father, one Daniel Gale, was pressed into the King’s -service just before Waterloo. Gale’s wife and child followed him to -Brussels and were in the women’s camp near the field of Waterloo. The -child remembers cutting up lint—saw many dead, and some stirring -incidents of the battle. (_Notes and Queries_, 5th Dec., 1903). A -portrait of Elizabeth Watkins recently appeared in _The Sphere_. - - ------------------ - - AN EYE-WITNESS OF WATERLOO. - - _From a Correspondent._ - -In a small cottage at the little village of Chapelle, within eye-shot of -the meeting-place of Wellington and Blücher after the most tremendous -and fateful struggle in the world’s history, there was living on June -18, 1815, a little girl, Thérèse Roland, thirteen years of age, who -witnessed all that took place on that historic day. Eighty-nine years -later she is still living there, a widow now, with her two sons of -eighty and seventy-eight, herself a bowed and wrinkled old dame of 103 -years. This aged peasant, with faculties still clear and memory -unimpaired, is probably the only living witness of the death-blow dealt -to all Napoleon’s hopes on that midsummer day, which moulded the future -history of an entire continent, and altered the balance of power of the -entire world. - -A representative of the _Patrie_ has recently visited the battlefield, -and obtained from this interesting old character, now Mme. Dupuis, some -reminiscences of much that happened that day. She says:— - -“As a little girl, stirred and fascinated by the long lines of horsemen, -guns, and tired foot regiments passing our cottage, I stood at our door -and served out water to the ‘beaux soldats.’ Afterwards I followed them -to Waterloo. In the evening we heard the booming of great cannon, and -from the windows I could see the clouds of smoke rising into the air -like trees. I was in the mill, and the windows rattled. All night long -we heard the tramp of silent men and the creaking, stumbling guns -passing our doors. When I looked out next morning I saw wounded men -lying by the roadside. In the distance I could hear a sound like a rough -sea breaking against the rocks. There were clouds of smoke, and I saw -men galloping, and masses of my brave soldiers moving hurriedly across -the fields. Then the doctors came, and took out the bullets from the -wounds of the soldiers.... The Prussians came by, and then the English, -shouting their cries of victory. - -“Not far away soldiers were digging trenches in our fields to bury the -dead. There were so many of them, so many of them”—and the old peasant -covered her face with her hands as though to shut out the terrible -picture. “I saw one woman of Gotarville cut off the fingers of a -Prussian officer, sorely hurt but still living, to secure the jewelled -rings that he wore. - -“At Planchenoit, a little further away, they tell me that the brave -French were so beaten down by bayonet charges that the river ran with -blood. Near the hill above a general was killed. - -“No; I did not see Napoleon, and I still regret it. Poor Napoleon!... We -did not like the English or the Prussians.... The next day we knew that -Napoleon’s power was broken, by the lines we heard the people -singing,”—and raising herself in her chair, the tottering old dame sang -in a feeble voice:— - - Les cannoniers bombardaient à feu et à flamme, - Les cuirassiers, les gardes d’honneur, sont renversés, - Bonaparte, enfin voilà ta fin. Il faut te rendre— - Te voilà battu, convaincu, tu n’en peux plus! - - _Pall Mall Gazette._ - -18th June, 1904. - - INDEX TO COMMISSIONED OFFICERS. - - - Abercromby, Hon.
