Four Crimean War letters dated 3 May to 21 September 1854 attributed to Captain Charles Stuart Glasbrook, 49th Regiment of Foot who died at Scutari 24 December 1854 “Scutari 3rd May 1854, My Dearest Mother, well here we are for the present. Where and when we go next we know not. I left Malta on morning of 22nd, we had bad weather up to 24th, after which we enjoyed sunshine and fine weather. It was a beautiful voyage up the Bosphorus… we anchored about 15 miles from Stanboul on 27th and steamed up to Scutari on the morning of the 28th at daybreak. The sun would not come out, however we were charmed with the sight of Constantinople from the sea, the view is beautiful, but it all vanishes the moment you step onshore. Dirty narrow streets, dirty shops, infamous pavements consisting of large round stones left to themselves to find their places, fleas, lice and bugs immeasurable and to wind up all the greatest cheats in the world, I have known them ask for 30 shillings for a thing and take 5. The people spend half their day sitting cross legged smoking their chibouks, saying “Allah is Great”, the remainder is spent in sleep. The resources of the country are very great but the Turks are not the people to make the most of them, as you may well imagine from the above character of them… We are in a very large barracks capable of holding about 8000 men, we have not above half that number as staff take up half the building – 41st, 47th and 49th are in barracks, sappers with Gordon and the 19th, the remainder, are encamped. Lord Raglan has arrived and the army is told off into divisions and brigades. We are in daily expectation of a move forward but we know not when the time will come… We have established a camp mess where we all meet once a day at 7pm, each man brings his own chair, knife, fork and spoon, and anything he likes to drink, the eatables are found for us, we sit there until 9 o’clock and each man walks off to bed with his chair on his back. All go to bed at this hour except those who wish to write for this is about the only time one can put to pen to paper. Yesterday we were in the field from 9am until 4pm and most days it is the same, the work is hard upon us at present and I suppose will continue so for some years”.........
