Note 432 — Chapter V · THE CAMPAIGN OF 1645.
Reading edition
Symonds’s Diary 268. The best passage in the little book, had it not been subsequently mutilated and never completed. Walker is here also the most trustworthy witness. What the English journals contain is derived from exaggerated hearsay. The notice in Disraeli v, derived from Bellasis’ Memoirs, cannot be reconciled with the facts known from other sources, for instance about the passports.
