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

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.
