Note 301 — SECTION XXV: CHAPTER II

Reading edition

Vacani says only 266 (v. 26), including 3 officers killed and 13 wounded, but Martinien’s lists show 3 officers killed and 24 wounded; it is impossible that 27 officers should be hit and only 239 men—the proportion of 1 to 9 is incredible, and the loss must have been more like 600. Schepeler and the Spaniards put it at 1,200, which is too high.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
