LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS


After the lapse of more than forty years, I hardly hoped to be able to publish pictures of all our officers, and have been more than pleased to secure so many.

All, I believe, with the exception of Colonel Oakford were below thirty years, and most between twenty and twenty-five.
