CHRONICLE. 187 
[Transmitted by the Duke of 
Wellington. ] 
Govy, June 26, 1815, 
My Lord,—Lieut.-Colonel Sir 
N. Campbell (Major of the 54th 
regiment) having asked my leave 
to go to head quarters to request 
your Grace’s permission to return 
to England, I beg leave to take 
the opportunity of mentioning, 
that I feel much obliged to him 
for his conduct in closing, in the 
town of Cambray, with the light 
companies of Major-General John- 
son's brigade, and in leading one 
of the columns of attack. 
The one which he commanded 
escaladed, at the angle formed (on 
ourrightside ) bythe Valenciemes 
gateway, and the curtine of the 
body of the place. 
A second, commanded by Co- 
lonel Sir William Douglas, of the 
91st regiment, and directed by 
Lieutenant Gilbert, Royal En- 
gineers, took advantage of the re- 
duced height in that part of the 
escarpe (which, on an average, is 
on that side about 55 feet), by 
placing their ladders on a covered 
communication from this place, 
to a large ravelin near the Amiens 
road. 
The Valenciennes gate was 
broken open by Sir N. Campbell, 
and draw-bridges let down in 
about half an hour, when, on en- 
tering the town, I found that the 
attack made by Colonel Mitchell’s 
brigade on the side of the Paris 
gate, had also succeeded : the one 
directed by CaptainSharpe, Royal 
Engineers, forced the outer gates 
of the Corre Port in the horn- 
work, and passed both ditches, by 
means of the rails of the draw-
