He was the eldest Commissioned Officer in his present Majesty King George the Seconds Service, and had the honour to receive his first Commission from the Ever Glorious King William the third, when Prince of Orange, which bore date the 31st of December 1688: as He set out in military Service, under that great Patron of Liberty. so He had the happiness to be first employed, under General Kirk in the relief of London Derry; and Soon after carried the Colours at the Battle of the Boyne. both memorable events; by which this Kingdom in particular, was delivered from impending Slavery. He afterwards Served as Lieutenant Colonel in Spain and acquitted himself with great honour, when Paymaster to the unhappy Persons who were left Prisoners in that Country. His Publick Services ended as they began, in the defence of his Country; at the Battle of Preston, where his treatment of those deceived men, when in his care as Prisoners, will allways be mentioned as an example, that true courage, and the tenderest humanity, ever go together. He was descended by his Fathers Side, from a Younger Branch of Lord Abergavenys Family, and his Mother, was Sister, to Sir Charles Wolseley, of Wolseley, in the Kingdom of England, and County of Stafford Baronet.”

NOTE: This image is a panorama consisting of 9 frames that were merged or stitched in Adobe Lightroom Classic 12.5. As a result, this image necessarily underwent some form of digital manipulation. These manipulations may include blending, blurring, cloning, and colour and perspective adjustments. As a result of these adjustments, the image content may be slightly different from reality at the points where multiple images were combined. This manipulation is often required due to lens, perspective, and parallax distortions.
