Gen. Wool publishes letter in the New
ork Herald. in which ha says that General
Scott, in his autobiography, has committed an
error in giving an account of the capture from
the British by the American troops. OF thl
Heights of Queenstown. Canada, on the morn.
ing OF October 13th, 1912, and of the death
on that occasion of the English General
Brock. =
Gen. Scott gives the credit of the capture Of
the Heights principally to detachment oi
the 9th and 2sd Infantry. company of Light
Artillery and some New York Militia, naming
the officers by whom they we're commanded !;
and also states that Gen. Brock received his
mortal wound at the foot of the Heights.
Gen. Wool says that he himself, then car
tain, led the forlorn hope which made the
important conquest, and that it consisted OF
2A0 men of the l3th Infantry, one company
under Capt. Ogilvie, and small detachmen,
of artillery. Only three Of the officers men
toned by Gen. Scott, he states, took part in
the engagement, in which Captain, now Gen
Wool, was himself severely wontded. Gen.
Wool also maintains that Gen. Brock fell on
the Height, and not at the foot, while endesv-
oring to rally his men for the parpsse OF re-
capturing their lost battery.
