Enclosure 3.

Before Sebastopol, July 8.
Sir,—l beg to draw your attention to the inadvertent
omission, in Lord Raglan's despatch of the 9th June, of
any mention of the 55th Regiment as sharing in the
attack and defence of the Quarries, during the night
of the 7th of June. I did not mention the regiment
in my report, as they were not given over to me as
part of the attacking party ; but the officer commanding
the party informs me that they, being originally told oif
as a working party, were directed by the Engineer (Cap-
tain Browne) to throw down their tools, and that they
were moved by you as a support to Egerton's Rifle-pit,
whence they moved to support the attacking party, and
did good service in clearing the Russian trenches, and
in the defence throughout the night, as their severe list
of killed and wounded attests (53 out of 160) ; many of
the former not being found until the flag of truce, when
their bodies were found in the trenches they had gained.
The officer in command of the party, Captain, now
Major, Cure, reports that the gallant conduct of Lieu-
tenant Stone, who was killed at the head of his men,
charging the Russians in their trench with the bayonet,
and of Captain Elton, who, with a small body of men,
formed a covering party on the right to those who were
reversing the trench, is particularly deserving of mention,
as is that also of Lieutenants Scott and Williams, who
were most active in performing their duties.
Hoping that the Commander of the Forces may deem
this statement sufficiently satisfactory to enable him to
move on the subject—l have, &c.,

ROB. CAMPBELL, Lieutenant-Colonel,
90th Regiment, Commanding Assault.
To Colonel Shirley, Commanding
2d Brigade, Light Division.
Before Sebastopol, July 17.
My Lord,—I have the honour to transmit herewith
the nominal and numerical return of casualties in this
army, from the 13th to the 15th inst. ; also the weekly
report of the Inspector-General of Hospitals, which will
be most gratiqing to your lordship, as showing a steady
decrease in the number of cases of spasmodic cholera.
I have but little to report to your Lordship ; our siege
operations are steadily progressing.
Last night, about 11 o'clock, a sortie was made by
the enemy on the right of the French works, in front of
the Mamelon ; the cannonade and fire of musketry was
exceedingly heavy, but I have not as yet been made ac-
quainted with any particulars of the attack.
I regret to have to announce to your Lordship the
death of Captain Rowland A Fraser, of the 42d High-
landers,: a very talented young officer, who was killed
in the trenches of the right attack, last night, by the
splinter of a shell.

I have, &c.,
JAMES SIMPSON,
Lieutenant-General Commanding.
The Lord Panmure, &c.

Enclosure I.—Extract.

severity of bowel affections.
I have, &c., JOHN HALL,
Inspector-General of Hospitals.
To Lieutenant-General Simpson,
Commanding-in-Chief.
