  • Major-General Daniel Hoghton (27 August 1770 – 16 May 1811) was a talented and experienced British Army officer who served during the Napoleonic Wars with distinction until his death during combat with the French at the Battle of Albuera in the Peninsula War. His death brought general mourning in Britain and a monument to his memory was raised in St Paul's Cathedral. During his long career, Hoghton had fought on several West Indian islands, in India, Denmark, Portugal and Spain and had even spent a brief period standing in for a Royal Marines detachment in the Channel Fleet. A popular and able officer, Wellington was reported to have commented on his death: "I understand that it was impossible for anybody to behave better than he did . . . he,actually fell waving his hat and cheering his brigade on to the charge" (en)
  • Генерал-майор Дэниел Хоутон (27 августа 1770 года — 16 мая 1811 года) — талантливый и опытный офицер британской армии, служивший во время наполеоновских войн до своей смерти в бою с французами в битве при Ла-Альбуэра в Пиренейской войне. После его смерти в соборе Святого Павла был воздвигнут памятник в его честь. За свою военную карьеру Хоутон сражался на нескольких островах Западной Индии, в Индии, Дании, Португалии и Испании, и даже провел короткий период в отряде королевских морских пехотинцев на флоте Канала. Он был известным и многообещающим офицером; Веллингтон так написал о его гибели: «Я считаю, что никто не мог вести себя лучше, чем он… он пал, размахивая шляпой и призывая свою бригаду идти в атаку».
