FOOTNOTES:
[12] In the Life of Colonel James Gardiner, by the Rev. J. Doddridge, D.D., the circumstances connected with his being wounded at Ramilies are detailed, which the Doctor states he had the pleasure of hearing more than once from the colonel's own mouth: but the doctor's memory must have failed in a few points, as there are some palpable errors in the statement, such as—"the French were masters of that spot (Ramilies) though their forces were defeated at some distance;" &c. &c.
