the battle of waterloo in 1815 was a battle of numerous tragedies. sergeant weir of the scots greys was pay sergeant, and as such might have excused himself from serving in action. but he disdained to avail himself of his privilege, and requested to be allowed to take part in the mortal fray. in one of the charges, he fell mortally wounded.
