Note 742 — SECTION XXIX: CHAPTER II

Note the curious misprint in the first line of p. 307 of Wellington Dispatches, vol. viii, of Light Dragoons for Light Division. Unless the misprint is noticed, the reader will ask why Wellington has omitted Craufurd in describing his order of battle. Napier, I know not why, has altogether neglected to explain the distribution of the British army, in the short paragraph of vol. iii. p. 342 which describes this day’s operations.
