TO COLONEL HERRIES, COMMANDANT OF THE CORPS OF Light Horfe Volunteers of London and Weftmintter. SIR, AT a period when the {pirit of the Nation is fo eminently manifefted, and when all that is loyal and honourable in this Empire is ranged in Arms to fupport its Government and Conftitution, I may fafely indulge the hope that my Countrymen will readily acknowledge the utility of the Work which I herewith offer to them. The exercife of Arms has hitherto been cultivated as an accomplifhment by the Gentleman, ig whom it is now become requifite as a Soldier; and every endeavour to facilitate the more general knowledge of Miltary Taéics, may find a claim to fome approbation at leaft on the importance of the object to which its confequences are direéted. [uJ IMPRESSED with thefe fentiments, I prefumed to folicit your permiffion to dedicate this Work to you +---To whofe patronage, indeed, could I with more propriety commit it, than to yours, Sir, who, by the unanimous fuffrages of your Fellow-Soldiers, are placed at the head of the Fir/ Volunteer Corps in the Kingdom ?——fuffrages univerfally the refult, as well of a conviction of your eminent military merit, as of the warmetft feelings of perfonal attachment and efteem. But the motive which prompts me more particularly to this Addrefs is a circumftance which muft ever enfure to you the admiration and efteem of your Country. You, Sir, were the FIRST who enrolled your name as a LrcHTr HORSE VOLUNTEER ;-—-- and thus, by your individual example, awakened that military fpirit, to which the Britifh Empire, by univerfal admiffion, owes, at this moment, not only its happy tranquillity, but perhaps even the falvation of its Honour and Independence. IT was your judgment, Sir, which firft fuggefted to the Gentlemen of the very refpeCtable Corps which you command, thofe improvements upon the Auftrian Broad Sword Exercife, lately introduced in England, which are fubmitted to the Public in the following (ar Work :-—-The fyftem of parrying throughout with the edge, is fo obvioufly preferable, (as well in the Science as the Exerci/e,) to that of oppofing the back or bevil of the fword to the blade of an enemy ; that I do not hefitate to hope of its now being univer/ally, as it has already been generally adopted. Ir I knew your Charaéter lefs, I fhould be impelled by my own feelings, to fay to you perfonally a great deal more.—-Conneéted as I ftand, however, through your kind approba- tion of my profeffional ability, with the Corps of Light Horfe Volunteers; a connexion, which I fhall ever be proud to boaft of as the greateft honour of my life; permit me now to indulge in an humble attempt, at leaft, to exprefs my warmeft acknowledgements, and to declare to the world how much I feel my‘elf, cae Your moft obliged, and Moft grateful Servant, London, March 23, 1799- HENRY ANGELO.
