Serjeant Cleared in Desertion Case and War Prison Return
The Serjeant denied desertion, claiming his horse fled from enemy fire and he was later captured, wounded, and treated as a prisoner of war in Antwerp and Chalons sur Marne. Evidence from fellow prisoners and Hanoverian officers supported his status as a POW, not a deserter, and he was acquitted with royal approval. Separately, several prisoners faced capital crime sentences, with many transported for seven years or longer, some to life with conditions.
