Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The 8th King's Regiment, a Curiosity in Its Annals: The Remains of a Non-Commissioned Officer in This Regiment, Killed at the Taking of York (Toronto) In 1813, Are Accidentally Discovered at Toronto, in 1894, and Are Honorably Cared for by the Officers and Men of the Same Regiment, at Halifax, Nova Scotia
Dr. Hackett is spoken of as the surgeon of the 8th Regiment, and he, we gather, accompanied the survivors of the Grenadiers of the 8th in their retreat down the Kingston Road, but returned to York very soon after.
