Lillies, private, 41st Eegiment, who was killed at the Battle of Inkcnnann." There are many other graves scattered up and down over the slope of the hill, and a large enclosui'e is devoted almost exclusively to the 30th Ivegiment. It is impossible to go over the ground regularly in a letter, but I have reason to believe that the Engineer officer, Lieutenant Brine, will execute a plan of all the graveyards in and about the plateau, so that they may be easily identified. In leaving the Inkermann plateau, and proceeding down the Woronzow-road past the burialground of the Light Division, you come on the rear of Gordon's battery. Here many a poor fellow has been brought to die, and then has found a resting-place near the scene of his last fight.
Over one mound there is a stone, " Sacred to tlie memory of E. Chm-chill and W. Lattiman, killed 17th October, and of J. Radmore, killed 18th June, of H.M.S. ' Diamond.' " Further on, behind the first parallel, there is a monument, " Sacred to the memory of Sergeant R. M'Coy, H.M. 55th Regiment, who fell in the assault on the Quarries on the evening of the 7th June. Erected by his affectionate brother, John M'Co}^, Colour Sergeant, 49th Regiment." This is an aflecting proof of brotherly love, but somewhat further on two soldiers have given a still more conspicuous proof of the same feeling. In front of the third parallel, and just in rear of the Quarries, there is a very handsome stone slab, surroimded with a fine wall of cut stone.
The slab is richly ornamented and carved, and bears the following inscription: — " Erected by William and James Weir, 47th Regiment, to the memory of their beloved brother Robert, who was killed in the trenches before Sebastopol on the 12th of July, 1855, aged 31. Also to Sergeant J. Keefe of the same regiment, who was killed at the same time and place. — ' Blessed are the servants whom the Lord when he comes shall find watching.' — Luke xii." In a secluded ravine, on(;e busy with frequent marches and resounding with the roar of cannon, the bursting of shells, and the turmoil of the neighbouring camps, lie all that was mortal of those of the Naval Brigade who rest in the Crimea.
The cemetery is enclosed by a wall, and is entered by a gateway, in good preservation. The first stone which strikes the eye is a handsome vertical slab of marble, with a ci'oss engraved, and the inscriptions, " Requiescat in pace. Sacred to the memory of Lieutenant E. H. Hughes D'Aeth, late First Lieutenant of Her •iCS OUR GRAVES IN THE CRIMEA. Majesty ship ' Sidon,' who, after having served nine months on shore with the Naval Brigade, died of cholera August 7, 1855, aged 34 years. This stone is erected by the captain and officers of Her Majesty's ship ' Sidon,' in testimony of their esteem and regard." The second grave is inscribed, " Sacred to the memory of J. Nichols, who was killed in action on the 8th of September, 1855, aged 24. ' Unto the Lord I lift up my soul.' " The third is a simple memorial, " To the memory of William Barry, 1855. ' Him that cometh to me I will in nowise cast off.' " No. 4. " To J.
Pinhorn, late gunners' mate, Her IMajesty's ship * Albion;' May 6, 1855; aged 32." No. 5. " In memory of W. Hubank, W. Jones, S. Smith, and S. Wallace, killed in action; erected by the crew of Her Majesty's ship ' Albion,' in token of their respect." No. 6. " In memory of William Haynes, Her Majesty's ship ' Albion,' killed in Greenhill Battery, April 9." No. 7. " To John Mullet, Her Majesty's ship ' Leander.' " No. 8. " To' C. Gaston, Her Majesty's ship ' Leander.' " No. 9. " To J. Tobin, died of wounds received in action." Beneath is this quaint inscription: — " I am ancliored here below with many of the fleet, But once again we will set sail our Admiral Christ to meet." In the noi-th-west angle of the enclosure are four gi-aves witliout stones.
