Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Farewell Manchester (John Oxenford)

Just a couple of picky points:

Charles Stuart visited Manchester in December 1745, and recruited a regiment there. He may also have retreated via Manchester in 1746, but by 1747 he was back in France, the battle of Culloden having taken place in April 1746.

Captain James Dawson was executed in London, at Kennington Common.
