*The Important Union Brigade Charger’s Waterloo Medal awarded to Captain Edward Holbech, 6th (Inniskilling) Dragoons, who as Troop Commander of No.1 Troop led his men during the most famous cavalry charge of the battle of Waterloo, that of the Union Brigade. His troop suffered the heaviest casualties in his regiment, and soon after taking part in the charge, Holbech was placed in command of the regiment’s captured French prisoners, escorting them to Brussels after the battle, comprising: Waterloo, 1815, with replacement silver clip, suspension and bar, with two pins for wear (Captain Edward Holbech 6th or Inniskilling Drag.), upon original ribbon, with additional section of early ribbon with button hole, and a musket ball, possibly removed from a wound received during the battle; Attractive cabinet tone, one or two small hairlines, otherwise extremely fine Captain Edward Holbech (1785-1847) was born on 31 May 1785, the 4th son of William and Anne Holbech, of Farnborough Hall, Warwickshire, just a few miles from Banbury. Serving with the 6th (Inniskilling) Dragoons, he arrived at Herzele on 11 May 1815, where he and his fellow officers and men were quartered in several small villages to the west in the Dender valley, close to the Royals and the Scots Greys. Holbech is mentioned in the book ‘Waterloo General: The Life, Letter and Mysterious Death of Major General Sir William Ponsomby’ by J. Morewood, in a letter written by Lieutenant Johnson, which describes the scene in the days before the battle: ‘(we were housed) at one wretched farmhouse with one room and a closet to do everything…Holbech sleeps on a table, Dames on six chairs, and I in a closet where there is a bedstead which Holbech would not take for fear of the bugs…Still we are very happy…some other officers have three Dutch officers sleeping in the room with them which must be very disagreeable…’ Despite the makeshift accommodation provided for the officers, on the day of the battle, the Inniskilling Fusiliers were ready, and played a central role in the day’s events. As part of Major-General Ponsomby’s 2nd Cavalry Brigade, or ‘Union Brigade’ (alongside the 1st (Royal) Regiment of Dragoons, and the 2nd Royal North British Dragoons, better known as the Scots Greys), the Inniskilling Dragoons took part in what was arguably the decisive moment and turning point of the battle. Charging at from a position on the left of the British and Allied line, the Union Brigade smashed into the opposing French infantry and nearby cavalry, leaving them in complete disarray and confusion. As the officer commanding No. 1 Troop, Holbech himself would have been in the thick of the action. In fact, the Inniskilling Dragoon suffered the heaviest casualties of the charging regiments, and Holbech’s troop suffered the heaviest casualties of these six troops, with a reported 17 killed, 2 died of wounds, and 9 wounded from a nominal strength of 73. Following the charge, and presumably after a short period of re-organisation, research suggests that Captain Holbech was instructed by his superior Major Fiennes Sanderson Miller to take charge of the regiment’s captured French prisoners and escort them to Brussels for imprisonment and eventual exchange, as the battle’s latter stages continued. After Waterloo, Holbech continued to serve for several years of further service until he was eventually placed on half-pay on 11 April, 1822. He died on 24 June 1847 at Alveston, near Stratford-upon-Avon, aged 69. His death is recorded in the ‘Gentleman’s Magazine’ of that year, recording also that he had ‘distinguished himself at the memorable battle of Waterloo.’ Another brother, George, served as a Lieutenant in the Royal Navy. For the Waterloo Medal to his nephew Lieutenant-Colonel Walter Henry Holbech, see lot 536.
