Kendall, late Captain H.M. 44th and 6th Regiments, and subsequently in the service of his late Majesty the Emperor of Mexico, is an interesting chapter of the history of Mexico under the unfortunate Emperor Maximilian, related by an eye-witness, and one who personally shared in the many dangers and horrors of the time.
