Note 136 — Chapter I
Reading edition
“There are some officers in camp who think that Brigadier England’s detachment will be sacrificed between this and the Kojuck; but with such fine examples as those set by Woodburn on the Helmund, Anderson at Tazee, and Wymer at Assyai, surely there ought to be no doubt of success between this and the Kojuck, when no natural obstacles to signify intervene.”—[Lieutenant Hammersley to Major Outram: March 18, 1842. MS. Correspondence.]
