Autumn Campaign on Dartmoor [in Devon]: attack on Sheepstor - 42nd Highlanders taking Yellow Mead Farm by assault, 1873. 'The Illustrations given in this Number belong to an earlier series of performances, while the two opposing Army Divisions, in their original positions of Yannadon and Ringmoor, were skirmishing against each other across the vale of the Meavy, around the village of Sheepstor, and over the sides of the neighbouring hills. To this period of their harmless warfare do the incidents appertain of...the 42nd Regiment (Highlanders) storming the fortress of the pigs and poultry in the farmyard at Yellow-mead'. From "Illustrated London News", 1873.
