On the 25th October 1854 he rode in the Charge Of The Light Brigade at the battle of Balaklava where his horse was killed under him during the charge. Nicholson managed to acquire another 'empty horse' and advanced towards the Russian guns; he was wounded in the side by a lance and received another lance wound close to his mouth. On his return to England, Nicholson was promoted to the rank of corporal. However, the injuries he sustained at Balaklava forced his discharge by special medical board on June 7th 1858. In later life Nicholson worked as a police inspector for South Eastern Railways, based at Charing Cross London.

[Jane Austen]. Portrait Miniature of Francis William Digweed, by George Jackson (active 1810-1820s), 1811, watercolour, gouache, and bodycolour on ivory, oval head and shoulders half-profile portrait to left of a fair-haired gentleman with side whiskers, wearing a dark blue coat and white stock, signed and dated lower left, fabric tape on verso with early 20th century pencilled inscription 'Francis W. Digweed Esqr. Steventon Manor', 67 x 50 mm (2.5 x 2 ins), ebonised frame, glazed (Qty: 1)Provenance: From the portrait miniature collection of mathematician and businessman Sir Brian Kellett (1922-1994). Francis William Digweed (1781-1865) was the youngest son of Hugh and Ruth Digweed who lived in Steventon Manor, near Basingstoke, renting it initially from Thomas Knight, and subsequently from his heir, Jane Austen's brother, Edward Austen Knight. He and his four brothers, John, Harry, James and William were consequently close friends of Jane Austen and her family, who lived at Steventon Rectory nearby. For a similar example of this little-known artist's work, depicting the sporting artist John Frederick Herring (NPG 4902) and dated 1822, see David Saywell & Jacob Simon, National Portrait Gallery, Complete Illustrated Catalogue , 2004, page 299, and Richard Walker, Regency Portraits , 1985, page 246.

[Jane Austen]. Portrait miniature of James Digweed, by George Jackson (active 1810-20s), circa 1811, watercolour, gouache, and bodycolour on ivory, oval head and shoulders half-profile portrait to right of a fair-haired gentleman with side whiskers, wearing a black coat and white stock, against a backdrop of crimson drapes and leather-bound books, small piece of paper tipped to verso annotated in contemporary manuscript 'Rvd James Digweed', 70 x 55 mm (2.75 x 2.25 ins), ebonised frame, glazed (Qty: 1)Provenance: From the portrait miniature collection of mathematician and businessman Sir Brian Kellett (1922-1994). The Digweeds were non-landed gentry who rented Steventon Manor from Thomas Knight, and subsequently his heir, Jane Austen's brother, Edward Austen Knight. Consequently they were close neighbours and friends of George and Cassandra Austen and their offspring, who lived at the rectory in Steventon, near Basingstoke, from 1775 to 1801 during George's incumbency there. Hugh and Ruth Digweed had five sons - John, Harry, James, William Francis and Francis William - who were much of an age with the Austen progeny. James Digweed (1774-1862) was born at the Manor the year before Jane was born, and so the two childen grew up together and formed a great friendship. James took holy orders in 1797 and became George Austen's curate at Steventon in 1798. His wife Mary Susannah was also a close friend of the novelist. She was the daughter of John Lyford, the Austen family doctor, who attended on all members of the family whilst they lived at Steventon. Jane Austen often referred to the Digweeds in her letters, their paths frequently crossing at dinners, balls and other social occasions. A particularly interesting letter is that sent by Jane to her sister Cassandra in 1798: 'James Digweed has had a very ugly cut–how could it happen? It happened by a young horse which he had lately purchased, & which he was trying to back into its stable;– the Animal kicked him down with his forefeet, & kicked a great hole in his head;–he scrambled away as soon as he could, but was stunned for a time, & suffered a good deal of pain afterwards.' James Digweed was also alluded to in a typically romantic vein by Jane to her sister in a letter written the following year: 'James Digweed left Hampshire to day. I think he must be in love with you, from his anxiety to have you go to the Faversham Balls, & likewise from his supposing, that the two Elms fell from their greif [sic] at your absence. - Was not it a galant [sic] idea?' ( Jane Austen's Letters , Collected and Edited by Deirdre Le Faye, OUP, 2011, pages 28 and 65) Although unsigned, in our opinion this painting is by the same artist as the portrait miniature of James's brother, Francis William, in this sale (lot 221); the works match in style and technique, and were almost certainly done around the same time. For a similar example of this little-known artist's work, depicting the sporting artist John Frederick Herring (NPG 4902) and dated 1822, see David Saywell & Jacob Simon, National Portrait Gallery, Complete Illustrated Catalogue , 2004, page 299, and Richard Walker, Regency Portraits , 1985, page 246.

[Jane Austen]. Portrait Miniature of Mrs. James Digweed, née Mary Susannah Lyford, by George Jackson (active 1810-20s), circa 1811, watercolour and bodycolour on ivory, oval head and shoulders half-profile portrait to left of a young lady wearing a white dress with high-necked lace-trimmed collar, her fair hair worn piled up on her head and in curled bangs, portion of paper tipped to verso with contemporary manuscript inscription 'Mrs. James Digweed born Miss Susanna Lyford', 67 x 53 mm (2.5 x 2 ins), ebonised frame, glazed (Qty: 1)Provenance: From the portrait miniature collection of mathematician and businessman Sir Brian Kellett (1922-1994). Mary Susannah Lyford (1772-1840) married James Digweed in 1803. She was a close friend of Jane Austen, and her father, John Lyford, was a physician who attended on all members of the Austen family whilst they were residing at the rectory in Steventon between 1775 and 1801. Mary Lyford's cousin, Giles-King Lyford, was Surgeon-in-Ordinary at the County Hospital in Winchester and he attended on Jane during her final illness. In fact Jane moved to Winchester in 1817 shortly before her death so that she should be near her doctor. The Digweeds were also close friends and neighbours of the Austen family, living as they did at Steventon Manor, which they rented first from Thomas Knight, and subsequently from his heir, Jane Austen's brother, Edward Austen Knight. Although unsigned, in our opinion this painting is by the same artist as the portrait miniature of Susannah's brother-in-law, Francis William, in this sale; the works match in style and technique, and were almost certainly done around the same time. For a similar example of this little-known artist's work, depicting the sporting artist John Frederick Herring (NPG 4902) and dated 1822, see David Saywell & Jacob Simon, National Portrait Gallery, Complete Illustrated Catalogue , 2004, page 299, and Richard Walker, Regency Portraits , 1985, page 246.

Brown (Mather, 1761-1831). Half-length portrait of an unidentified gentleman, possibly a member of the Collingwood family, circa 1800, oil on canvas, unsigned, relined, 75 x 62 cm (29.5 x 24.5 ins), old typed label to wooden stretcher verso, with erroneous attribution to John Trumbull (Qty: 1)Acquired from the auction of the contents of Lilburn Hall, Northumberland, which took place from April 1975, following its sale to Duncan Davidson in 1972. The property was owned by Sir Edward Foyle Collingwood (1900-1970), mathematician, whose great grandfather was the brother of Admiral Lord Cuthbert Collingwood (1750-1810). According to Sir Edward Collingwood's niece, Mrs Susan Collingwood-Cameron, the painting had been in the family for over a century and the artist was always believed to have been John Trumbull. While the artist is now believed to be Mather Brown, the sitter's identity remains unknown. Early American portrait painter Mather Brown was born in Boston, Massachusetts, and at the age of 12 became a pupil of Gilbert Stuart. He moved to London in 1781 to study further in the studio of Benjamin West, entered the Royal Academy in 1782, and began exhibiting there the following year. He painted many portraits of both American and English sitters, including Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, Prince Frederick Augustus. and George, Prince of Wales.

The income from which was to be divided annually on St. Stephen's day amongst various worthy individuals of Bristol including 38 poor men and 38 poor women, 'all of whom to be free of the said city of Bristol, and housekeepers therein, not receiving parochial alms, and not occupying or keeping public or ale houses'. Money was also awarded to 20 poor widows and single women, and such 10 poor men, inhabitants of the parish of St. Stephen, not receiving parochial alms. The Charity Commission register records that the Mary Ann Peloquin Charity ceased to exist in 1997. St. Stephen's Parish Church, Bristol contains a fine marble wall monument erected by Mary Ann in the memory of her brother David Peloquin (died 1766, aged 66), also an alderman of the city. At the base of the monument there is a bronze panel which records that Mary Ann Peloquin died in 1778, the last of a family who had settled in Bristol in the 17th Century, and benefactor to various charities. Their father Stephen Peloquin a Huguenot refugee arrived in Bristol, aged about 20, in the mid 1680's, bringing much of his family's portable wealth with him. Stephen was a highly successful merchant becoming one of the wealthiest citizens of Bristol in the 18th century. His wealth was made largely through the tobacco trade, which depended in part on slave labour. Stephen shared a trading consortium with his brother-in-law Augustus Jay of New York. After his death Mary Ann lent the family home in Queen Square to Josiah Tucker, who was a supporter of the anti-slavery campaigners. By the mid 1700s the wealthier Huguenots attended St Stephen's and St Nicholas's churches in Bristol's old merchant quarter, where a number of their memorials can still be seen.
