Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Sword of Brigadier-General Richard Montgomery: A Memoir
One by one our old living landmarks are disap pearing from our midst, and this morning we have to record the death of our respected friend, Deputy commissary-general Thompson. Of late we had miss ed him from his familiar walks, and on enquiry we regretted to learn that he had for some weeks been confined to his chamber, and that his memory, which had been hitherto wonderfully clearin connexion with the events of the olden time, had completely failed him; from this we augured that the end was near; and though we heard it with regret, we were not sur prised when, yesterday evening, we received notice of his death.
