Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: CHAPTER IV 1795-1811 An Account of Nelson's Attack on Santa Cruz?Taylor's Appointment with Lord Cornwallis in Ireland, 1798; and with the Duke of York in Holland, 1799?His position as Secretary to the Blind King?Letters to the Duke of York from Baron Hardenberg and the Duke of Orleans ?George III. and the Princess Amelia; his views on Government and Authority. A TER the Duke of York's return to England, Herbert Taylor, who in May, 1795, obtained his captaincy, stayed on in Holland as secretary to the Commander of the Forces, and continued in that situation first with Lieut.-General Harcourt and then with Sir David Dundas until September 16th of that year, when in consequence of being appointed A.D.C. to H.R.H. the Commander-in-Chief, he returned to England and soon afterwards became assistant secretary in the Duke's office. Indeed, from the very outset he seems to have lacked no opportunity of secretarial and military employment, for during this autumn (1795), Colonel Charles Crawfurd, who was attached to the Austrian army as a military commissioner, offered to appoint him his assistant; and about the same period Major-General St. Leger, who had been named to a brigade destined for the Vendee, would have made him his A.D.C., but the situation he had accepted with the Duke of York precluded both. Again, in 1796, Mr. Windham?then Secretary for War? proposed to send him on a military mission to the Vendee, which was accepted, subject to the Duke of York's approbation. This was obtained, but after being kept in suspense some months, this hazardous service was placed wholly out of the question by the dispersion of the Chouans, and the capture and execution of Charette. London, therefore, was for the present Taylor's headquarters; and his work, in addition to his regimental...

Traveling Through the Spiritual Love Tunnel - This is a book of spiritual poems that are inspired by my spiritual gift. These poems are illustrated with pictures to reflect the meaning of the words used in each collection. Traveling Through the Spiritual Love Tunnel contains poems about birth, death, holidays, salvation, freedom and many others. All of these poems were written by Ernest Taylor. They will open up your understanding about why you really exist. It is based upon choices we all have to make. The reason why we have choices is because of Adam's disobedience to God. That disobedience brought sin unto this world. All generations after Adam will be born unto this sin. God however, made a provision for us through His Son Jesus who paid the price for us all. But you are required to choose which path of travel you want for your life - the way of Adam or the way of Christ. In conclusion, this book is to motivate others physically and spiritually to follow Christ.
