Image description

Shadrach was one of Lord Raglan's horses in the Crimea and carried him during the battle of Alma, in October 1854. A witness to many of the battles and in close contact with Lord Raglan, A.W. Kinglake, described the horse in The Invasion of the Crimea: Its Origins and an Account of its Progress (Vol. II, p. 375), describing a scene at the Battle of Alma: '[Shadrach] The brown bay Lord Raglan rode was of course well broken to fire, and he had been quiet enough during the earlier part of the action; but now, suddenly, his blood rose, and for all the rest of the day he was so eager that he would hardly suffer his rider to use a field-glass from the saddle [Lord Raglan used a specially mounted telescope with a rifle stock attached, which he could use with one-handed]. The truth is, that in other times he had been ridden to hounds in England, and although he had long stood careless of all that was done by the Causeway batteries, yet when he and his rider and the horsemen around him cantered down into the valley, when they plunged into the river, when they briskly dashed through it, and began to gallop up the steep broken ground on the Russian side, the old hunter seemed to think of the chase and great days in the Gloucestershire country.' Shadrach died in 1857 and is buried in the grounds of Madresfield Court, Worcestershire, the seat of the Lygons, the Earls Beauchamp, who were linked to the family through the marriage of Richard, 2nd Baron Raglan, to Lady Georgina Lygon, daughter of 4th Earl Beauchamp.
