My Lord The admiration which I have ever entertained for your character induces me to dedicate these Sketches to your Lordship. Your career as a soldier is familiar to the whole world. I may, however, be permitted to observe, that so long as undaunted bravery, deep sensibility of honour, generosity to friend and foe, and determined adherence to principle, form the true foundation ot the character of The Soldier, so long must the name of Lynedoch live in history. I have the honour to remain. My Lord, Your Lordship smost obedient servant, Charles Shaw. Rickmand, l Oik June,
