Abrantes …

Abrantes, 15 June 1809 Cuesta sticks to his original plan which will merely drive the French back on their own reinforcements. The only choice however is to do this or remain inactive. Beresford will proceed to Castelbranco. State of the battalions. Just learnt that Victor has fallen back on Merida which makes the Badajos move all the more objectionable. – From: Londonderry Estates – Additional Records Acc: 1193(D),Despatches from Charles William Stewart (1778-1854), Lord Stewart to Robert Stewart (1769-1822), Viscount Castlereagh, from the Peninsula, volume 2
