See following note), it was published both plain (the lithographic plates are single or double-tinted) and hand-coloured. No date but the text page is dated March 8th, 1854 at the foot.

Note. — On examination of Hart's Army List for 1853, it appears that the only officers of the 43rd Light Infantry answering to these initials were Lieutenants Lumley Graham and Hugh Robinson.'
