11EMORIAL TO THE LATE GENERAL
Slit WILLIAM NAPIER, K.C.B.
At a Meeting held at the Royal United Service Institu-
tion on the Bth May, 1860,
His Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, K.G.,
G.C.8., in the chair,
It was proposed by his Grace the Duke of Richmond, K.G.,
and seconded by the Earl of Ellenborough, G.C.8.,
That the late General Sir William Napier, as a soldier
and a military historian, merited the admiration and grati-
tude of his country.
Proposed by General Sir John Burgoyne, Bart., G.C.8.,
and seconded by General Sir Thomas Brotherton,
That he immortalised the glorious deeds of our Army in
Spain, Portugal, and France, by his history of the war in
those countries—a history that no true soldier can read
without instruction and advantage, and without being in-
spired by the heroic sentiments and spirit-stirring language
of the author.
Proposed by General Sir Robert Gardiner, G.C.B , and
seconded by Lieutenant-General Sir Harry Smith,
Bart., G.C.8.,
That a subscription be immediately opened for the erec-
tion of a statue to the memory of +Are chivalrous soldier and
Unsurpassed military historian.
