    PS states:
    "PS - I regret to state that an insane order came out from some desiring our light cavalry to charge some Russian batteries (near Balaclava) unsupported. of 700 that went out 190 only returned. Some blame Capt. Nolen. Commander of Cavalry. He was the first killed. They may blame him. The dead cannot speak"
