Note 26 — Chapter XXXIV · CRIMEAN FESTIVITIES.
Reading edition
It was commenced by General Bentinck, continued by General Wyndham and Lord W. Paulet, and finished by General Garrett. It was situated on the spot once inhabited by Sir John Campbell. The Duke of Newcastle also had his tent pitched there during his stay in the Crimea, not fifty yards from the place where General Cathcart and other great heroes are interred. The reader’s humble and respectful servant is not a little proud to have had the honour of having his last culinary encampment, called Soyer’s Villarette, on that celebrated and glorious locality.
