Letter from Lord Stewart, Vehnigen, to Lord Burghersh, 16 June 1815 (pp.109-112) ‘No.1 Duplicate My Lord I have the honor to forward herewith a dispatch for your Lordship which reached me under flying seal, together with a letter I have this day addressed to Lieutenant Colonel Church directing that officer to place himself under your orders, agreeable to instructions received from Viscount Castlereagh. I shall arrive at Heidelberg this evening having as one of the Plenipotentiaries at Congress affixed my signature to the different articles of the Treaty previous to my leaving Vienna. So soon as I have communicated with Prince Schwartzenberg and find myself au courant of the military affairs in progress I shall not fail to take every safe opportunity of communicating to you in the most confidential and unreserved manner. Your dispatches will be forwarded by me whenever they arrive with all expedition, and I am sure your wonted zeal will keep me constantly informed of events near you. You will of course detach Lt. Col. Church to any corps or employ him in any manner most conducive to the publick service. But in the event of your having no particular service for him from the entire concentration of the army, if you direct him to return to me I will endeavour to make him serviceable with some corps on the Rhine. I hear Colonel Coffin is with the Piedmontese, and Colonel Leake in Switzerland, I shall open communications with both these officers and recommend you doing the same. I send this despatch to Lord Clancarty at Vienna with a request he will forward it by special messenger to you wherever you may be and I shall send duplicates from the headquarters of Prince Schwartzenberg by his conveyance to General Frimont’s headquarters. I have the honor to be My Lord Your Lordship’s most obedient humble servant Stewart Lieutenant General’ – From: Londonderry Estates – Additional Records Acc: 1193(D)
