We crossed and got under the steep bank which I mentioned previously, where we were as safe as if we were in the ditch of the Tower of London. We were getting our... men nicely into their places — for the vines and the river had broken our touch ; by rights we should have had time to re-form, and have taken off our packs, for then we could have charged up the hill in proper form ; but our Colonel, Sir Charles Hamilton, shouted to us to " advance and support the Light Division," who were catching it uncommon hot at this time ; so we clambered up the steep bank and doubled up the hill in the teeth of a tremendous fire.
