afterwards one of the Greys was struck in
the stomach by a ball, but no doctor could
be procured, Iam not sure whether he did
not have to leave the Regt. for it". "When
the order was given to charge, our 2nd
Squadron & the Squadron of Greys went
right thro the Russians". "Then the order for
our 1st squad & the 1st squad of the group
was sounded & we all got mixed up

merci anglais". "Major Shute told me to
sound the regt'al call & had got some of the
men ready to charge again, when the
remainder of our brigade came up &
charging among the Russians, and made
them retire?. When I heard our men cheer I
did not know what was the matter, when

the Russians as they went over the hill".
