Description
English: The Fourth Division Burial-Ground, on Cathcart's Hill, Crimea. Illustration for The Illustrated London News, 2 February 1856.

This Illustration possesses a melancholy interest, and will naturally be appreciated by those in England whose relatives and friends have fallen in battle and at the siege, and now rest upon Cathcart's Hi1l. Ihe Correspondent to whom we are indebted for this Sketch has rendered the deceased officers' tombs, with their names, according to the list at the foot of the Illustration. The tombs of the officers of the 68th Regiment are alike-red Maltese marble; those of the 57th, white marble; and the 63rd, stone crosses. A very handsome memorial is shown, in jet-black marble, to Sir R. Newman, Grenadier Guards. The monument erected to General Cathcart by the officers of the Fourth Division is one of the finest works; and the stone slab to poor Curtis, of the 46th, has been much admired. The situation is on the highest ground occupied by the Allied armiea, cCmmanding a view of the remains of Sebastopol.
