[Facsimile letter engraved in bronze]
Halifax Nova Scotia 3 May 1809
To Sergeant Major Johnson’s parents.
I am exceedingly sorry in being under the very
painful necessity of communicating to you the fall
of your brave son on the 2nd March last at
Martinique, and although with you I most sincerely
lament the early fate of so good a man with you I
also rejoice in the remembrance of his having nobly
done his duty both in front of the enemy & in
private life. No man could be more respected than
Johnson, and consequently none more regarded. We
naturally grieve for such a loss. The corps mourns
for Johnson but why should we be sorry, ‘twas to
that end the Almighty made us. Your son was called
on in the prime of life; he knew not long sickness
and died sensible. His worth lives on record in the
books of the regiment, a consequence which soldiers
aspire to and which good conduct alone can merit.
About six hours before his death your son requested
I would take charge of his effects and transmit the
amount to you. The account is annexed and inclosed
is a bill for the sum. If at any future period you
should require further particulars I shall be very
happy to prove the regard I had for Johnson by
attending to the wishes of his parents.
