The Return, (see "The Roundheads Parole") - drawn by Samuel Read, 1864. Illustration to a short story. The barges went heavily back to Chillington with the returning tide, not with Saxby and his men, and yet not empty, but each with a ghastly and groaning load - the dead, dying, and wounded Cavaliers whom Saxby and the garrison had laid low. A little after sunset a weary and straggling band...returned to the castle through the chestnut avenue to find the beacon flaring still. In the rear of this melancholy troop came the Chaplain. He leaned heavily on his stick, and now and then also supported himself by the arm of Wilfred the Broad, who walked beside him. The man kept stopping and looking at the Chaplain, as if he momentarily expected him to fall. He had been in the very thick of the fight, wearing armour that had concealed him, and had received a wound in the neck. But he had, though ceasing to fight, and while getting rid of his armour, declared it to be trifling, and refused to wait and return with the barges. He had not got half way across the courtyard, however, when he fell down in a faint. From "Illustrated London News", 1864.
