Scar- lett’s three hundred and the Russian line of thousands: “Well. I sounded the charge, and we then went for the Russians like tigers. I was stirrup to stirrup with the gallant General Scarlett when we plunged into the enemy’s line. It was a neck and a neck race between four of us to see which would have the honor lot the first onslaught. But goodness only knows who unhorsed the first of the enemy.
