Note 300 — Chapter I

Schwartz’s force was:—

2nd Swiss (3rd batt.) 580

1st Neapolitans (1st and 2nd batts.) 1,944

1st Italian Velites (1st batt.) 519 = 3,043

One squadron of the 3rd Provisional Cuirassiers 204

3,247

with four guns.

[That the detached squadron were cuirassiers is proved by Arteche, ii. 86. The French authorities do not give the regiment.]

Foy makes the odd mistake of saying ‘trois bataillons du deuxième Suisse,’ instead of ‘le troisième bataillon du deuxième Suisse.’ There was only one battalion of this regiment with Duhesme.
