[28] State of Europe, for June, 1708.

[29] Journal of the War in Spain, by a Chaplain of the army.

[30] See Lieut.-General Carpenter's letter, published in the Daily Courant of the 16th of September, 1710.

[31] Tradition has connected the badge of the Antelope, borne on the colours of the regiment, with its services in Spain; and as the Sixth captured several colours at Saragossa, which colours were taken to England by their Colonel, Thomas Harrison, and presented to Queen Anne, it is not improbable but that an Antelope was on one of the captured colours, and that Colonel Harrison obtained her Majesty's permission for his regiment to bear the badge of an Antelope in commemoration of the event. No documentary evidence has, however, been met with to substantiate the tradition.
