- and lists of the troops under the command of Captains
' Bartenoff and Vaiiiitzky on the 13tli (25th) September. ' The number of infantry is taken from tlio muster-rolls of ' General Moller of the 23d September (5th October), and ' of the Commander of the P)Outirsk Regiment of the 24th ' September (6th October).' The work published under the sanction of General de Todleben gives no details of strength, so that possibly the figures as printed may be the result of a clerical error, and I may add that the work speaks of the battalions as being only forty-two in number, whereas Gendre's list (and he describes by name each battalion) amounts to forty-five.
