Army of the East, General Orders
The general-in-chief, wishing to give mark of his approbation to the brigade of cavalry of General Murat, which covered itself with glory at the battle of Aboukir, orders the commandant of artillery to send to the brigade the two English pieces of cannon, which had been sent, by the court of London, as a present to Constantinople, and which were taken in battle.
On each cannon there shall be engraven the names of the three regiments composing that brigade, as well as the name of General Murat, and that of Adjutant Roire: there shall be written round the touch-hole, 'Battle of Aboukir.'
