[300] Schwartz’s force was:—
| 2nd Swiss (3rd batt.) | 580 | ||
| 1st Neapolitans (1st and 2nd batts.) | 1,944 | ||
| 1st Italian Velites (1st batt.) | 519 | = | 3,043 |
| One squadron of the 3rd Provisional Cuirassiers | 204 | ||
| 3,247 | |||
| with four guns. | |||
[That the detached squadron were cuirassiers is proved by Arteche, ii. 86. The French authorities do not give the regiment.]
Foy makes the odd mistake of saying ‘trois bataillons du deuxième Suisse,’ instead of ‘le troisième bataillon du deuxième Suisse.’ There was only one battalion of this regiment with Duhesme.
[301] One gun was lost after leaving Esparraguera by the fall of a rickety bridge over the Abrera (Arteche, ii. 93, 94). Foy and other French narrators do not mention this loss.
[302] For details see Arteche, ii. 98, 99, and Foy, iv. 150, who adds that Arbos ‘fut pillé et réduit en cendres, conformément aux usages de la guerre’(!)

[304] Napier says that the assault was delivered at seven in the evening, before dark (i. 79); but all the Spanish accounts speak of it as having taken place long after dark, though before midnight (cf. Arteche, Toreño, and Minali, quoted by the former); so does Foy (iv. 158), who fixes the hour as ‘between nine and ten.’
