"The calumnies that have been spread against me concerning the Battle of ASTEINBECK (in Hanover) oblige me to justify myself in the eyes of the public... if I can prove that I took part in the successes of M. le Maréchal d'ESTRÉES... One does not recriminate when one is proud to prove one's innocence by authentic facts...".
