Report in French with translation, by the General, unsigned, probably in an ADC's hand, stating that "This march with fixed bayonets ... cost us only two wounded, and produced such an impression on the Garibaldians that they retired in a compact mass.

The number of dead recovered from the field of battle exceeds 600, with wounded in proportion, and the number of prisoners comes to 1600", 2 sides 4to., no place, 8th November trace of tipping in on left margin of verso
