Note 109 — Chapter XIII

Mark Trevor, who is said to have given the wound, was created Lord Dungannon, for his services in this war. But Whitelock says that the wound was made by a graze from a pistol bullet, “which some imagined to be by accident and want of care by some of his own men”. General Crawford supports this account of the wound. See Masères’s Tracts. The story of the sword-wound is in Leadman’s Battles Fought in Yorkshire, p. 138; a book giving a very elaborate account of the battle.
