Three of the wounded died before the night.

Eight dead and nine wounded--it is worse than the disaster to the King's (Liverpools) almost exactly on the same spot a few weeks ago.
In the middle of the morning much the same thing nearly happened to the 5th Lancers.

The 6 in.

gun on Telegraph Hill, usually more noisy than harmful, was banging away at the Old Camp and the Naval battery on Cove Hill, when one of the shells ricocheted off the hill-top, and plunged into the Lancers' camp at the foot.

Four officers were hit, including the colonel, who had a bit of finger blown off, and a segment through both legs.
